2023 Gift Guide for Holiday Hostesses (and under $50 faves!)

Sharing holiday hostess gifts and under $50 faves.

Hi friends! How’s the week treating you? I’m here getting ready and looking forward to our Arkansas trip this week.

Today, the gift guide fun continues with holiday gifts and under $50 faves. I know we all have a frenzy of holiday parties on the horizon, and for hostess gifts, I try to switch things up from the usual flowers or bottles of wine. (As someone who loves to host, these things are always appreciated and lovely, I just try to think of something a little different when I attend parties.)

Here are some of the fun hostess gifts I’ve found, plus some under $50 gift ideas if you’re searching for a smaller gift for a friend or family member.

2023 Gift Guide for Holiday Hostesses (and under $50 faves!)

Gifts for the hostess with the mostess:

– Mini hand creams

– Truffle salt

– Unique honey set

– Cute apron

– Ina Garten cookbook

My favorite local candles. I LOOOOVE these candles for hostess gifts.

– This cute succulent gift box

– Cheeky kitchen towels. These are so fun.

– Mini oil dipper set

Festive shot glasses

Under $50 gifts:

 Jade roller. Liv has borrowed mine…forever… but I’m a huge fan of this one for decreasing puffiness and waking me up.

Sakara popcorn! We recently received some from the company and omggggggg it.s a dream. You can also use XOGINAH for 25% off right now.

-12 Days of Christmas dessert plates.

– Bombas socks or slippers. These have always been an easy holiday gift and everyone loves them. We LOVE the gripper slippers!

– Lounge pants for men

– These gorgeous mini stud earrings

– The BEST sleep mask. It’s a bit on the pricey side, but is incredible quality and washes really well. (I just hand wash in cold water, air dry,  and it looks new.)

This cozy quarter-zip sweatshirt.

Initial pendant necklace

– Pet print. Such an awesome way to honor someone’s furry BFF.

-This cute bubble headband. 

-These shorts pajamas.

Crystal huggie hoops

A perfect pom beanie

Ribbed ballon sleeve sweater.

A new Stanley. 

– A super cozy throw

So tell me, friends: what’s your go-to hostess gift?

What’s your favorite thing that you own that was under $50?

    Fuzzy slippers and beautycounter items…yes, please. I’m going to be in a hospital for treatment for almost a month and they would sure cheer me up.

    Love some of your ideas and that rewined candle is great.

    Curious about the jade roller too.
