Wine & Champagne Gifts for the Host or Hostess
Always a great gift for the hostess to keep for herself or share with the guests.
To top off the bottles (or instead of bottles), I always like to add a festive wine stopper, pull or pourer, or glass charms, and Pottery Barn always has the best selection of hostess gift ideas like these snowflake coasters.

Food Ideas for the Host or Hostess
Yummy treats are sure-to-please gifts, Fill up a jar! They suggest you stock up on glass jars (pretty ones that you don’t have to wrap), fill with your favorite delights or recipe ingredients, and secure the lid with a ribbon and cute gift tag or recipe instructions. After the hosts enjoy their gift, they can continue to use the jars as storage containers, drinking glasses, or bud vases. Some filler ideas that Whole Foods suggest include spiced nuts, granola or snack mix; cookie or quickbread mix; jam or preserves; BBQ sauce or mustard; flavored oils or marinated olives; soup or pancake mix; flavored salts; or even bath salts.
