Perfect Holiday Host Gifts – Elegant Home Accessories They’ll Love
With the holidays quickly approaching, it’s time to start thinking about holiday parties. Planning the perfect holiday party can be a stressful time, so showing up with something special for the party host says a lot about how much you appreciate their effort. One type of gift that’s always a hit is elegant home accessories. Here, the team at Accessorize by Designer’s Mark explores some of the hottest holiday gifts for that special host.
Home Accessories As Host Gifts
When we think about finding the perfect little something to show our appreciation, it can be slightly overwhelming especially if you’re attending a holiday event thrown by someone who seems to have everything. One gift that is always popular is a unique home accessory they’re sure to love. Here are some of our favorites!
Picture Frames
Gifting your host with a gorgeous picture frame is always a timeless option. One of the major benefits of picture frames is that there are so many options available. Gifting a picture frame is also a good idea because it allows your host to incorporate it into their own interior design style, as they don’t take up much room. Add a special picture of a memorable time you had with your host that they can cherish!
Candle Holders
Beautiful candles and candle holders provide a sense of warmth and light. Much like frames, they make a perfect holiday hosting gift as there are an incredible amount of options. For example, if you’re attending a party thrown by the chicest person you know, consider gifting them narrow candle holders they can incorporate into their dining tablescape. If you’re attending a more relaxed affair, consider gifting a few tealight holders in interesting shapes or colors. Make the gift feel more complete with candles in holiday scents or one you know your hosts love.
Throw Blankets
Though South Florida isn’t exactly known for its chilly winter weather, throw blankets are a great gift option for any movie lover or the host who likes to spend their evenings outdoors. Much of the appeal of gifting throw blankets is that they come in a wide variety of colors, patterns, and sizes. Not only are throw blankets one of the most practical gifts, but they also provide a sense of comfort and security. One of the most popular options we offer at Designer’s Mark are luxurious genuine Alpaca throws. Not only are their throw blankets practical and stylish but also sustainably harvested.
Desk Accessories
Let’s be honest, it can be hard to figure out what to get for a work colleague who invited you to their holiday party. One reliable option is always interesting desk accessories that are sure to liven up their workspace. Even if you don’t know them on a personal level, it’s a practical and thoughtful gift they’re sure to enjoy. Pigeon & Poodle is one of our favorite brands for desk accessories due to their stunning collections of desk blotters, box sets, business card holders, and wastebaskets. From rugged leathers to gorgeous golds, their accessories provide a timeless elegance to any desk.
Vases
If your host has an eye for design, you may want to consider gifting them with a vase they can utilize to add instant style to any space in their home. Not only are vases a gorgeous gift on their own, but they’re also practical when you add a stunning flower arrangement. Providing a vase along with an arrangement also saves your host from scrambling for something. One of the most popular brands for incredible glass vases we offer at Designer’s Mark is Global Views. Their incredible designers effortlessly blend elegance with casual refinement to create pieces that will complement any space. We especially love their round Pinnacle Bottle available in both a stunning olive and gorgeous amethyst color.
Things To Consider When Giving A Host Gift
While the holiday party season is a time for celebration and togetherness, it can still feel awkward giving the gift of home accessories to your host. Delivering the gift comes with a certain etiquette. One of the most critical aspects to consider is your relationship with the host. For example, you probably wouldn’t give a throw blanket to your boss any more than you would give an ink blotter to your best friend. It’s also important to remember that not everyone will likely bring a gift for the host, so delivering it to them when they greet you can help avoid unwanted attention. Our final tip is to always send a handwritten thank you note after the party to express your gratitude further.
