Entertaining isn’t easy, so it’s important to thank your hostess upon arrival. While the safe choice is often wine, liquor, or dessert to serve at the event, a better bet is to pick a hostess gift that makes the party-throwing more efficient or fun. Take it from someone who has been hosting get-togethers large and small for decades: those two goals are much appreciated! Here is a smattering of hostess gifts that are sure to be a hit.

Checklist Notepad

The types of people who host events are usually the kind who love a good checklist. Make it easier for them by bringing a notepad designed for their organizational tendencies, then add a pretty pen to complete the set!

The Best Oven Mitts Around

Hostesses are multitaskers, drastically increasing the chance of getting burned as they chat up guests while  they repeatedly take hot things out of the oven. My wrists have been burn-free ever since I invested in these gloves, which are safe up to 540°F and give the freedom of finger movement that traditional mitts don’t have.

An Important Refill for Family Parties

One of the most thoughtful gifts I received was after a good friend stayed overnight with her young kids. Hers plus mine equaled six little ones who insisted on independence in the bathroom (even though some of them weren’t quite there yet). Soon after, I received a box of soft, flushable wipes as both a wink to the amount of time we spent checking on kids in their and to be prepared for their next visit.
