Thank you gifts to a hostess are a way to let her know how much you appreciate the time, effort and expenses that she put into your party. Here are a few ideas:
· Gift certificate to her favorite restaurant, spa, or store.
· Gift basket full of chocolates, gourmet foods, a basket of cookies, or wine.
· A hand-made gift. A picture frame with both of your pictures in it, cross-stitch a small pillow, make a wreath, etc. Check with your local craft store for great ideas!
· Simple, jewelry pieces.
· Candles, bath salts, recipe books, decor for her home,
Overall, think of your hostess and what you think she would like. Does she enjoy sports? Buy her favorite team sweatshirt. Does she like to bake? Buy her some baking supplies or some muffin mixes.
Only you know your friend/sister/mother well enough to make the final decision on what the best gift is for her. Also, it depends on your budget. Some may spend a couple hundred, some people will spend twenty dollars. Just remember, it is the thought that counts! Choose something that has meaning to it and she'll love it.
