    23 Of The Best Hostess Gifts You Can Get On Amazon

    All the little extras they'll want when party time rolls around.

    1. A bottle of Mike's Hot Honey they'll would never dream about not including as part of their charcuterie setup once they give it a try.

    2. A beautifully illustrated write-in menu book so they can record and remember all of their impressive dinner party menus through the years. Never forget the coq au vin of 2007! So tender. So delicious.

    3. An Instagramable slate cheeseboard with cutlery sure to have guests diving for their plates and cameras in equal measure.

    4. A cube of Table Topics — little cards featuring great conversation starters. They'll never have to worry about carrying the conversation again, no matter how dull the crowd (no offense, but come on people, it's a party).

    5. A throw blanket for transforming any corner of their home into The Official Snuggle Corner.

    6. A wine decanter to enhance their already excellent wine game. Decanters really do make a difference. I dated a sommelier for a week once. I would know.

    7. A Jacobson Salt gift set because salt is nature's greatest gift to mortals and, in my opinion, the greatest gift you can give to another person.

    8. A set of whiskey stones to make sure your relationship with them isn't ~on the rocks~. Just pop them into the freezer, add to a drink, and enjoy at your leisure — without worrying about it getting watered down by ice!

    9. The Voting Game, a card game that makes fun out of intimately knowing your friends' personalities. My friends and I call this "The Friendship Ender," but I think that's an us problem. What's a party without a little ~drama~?

    10. A tin recipe box with cards for safeguarding the recipe for their famous homemade rugelach (that you'll definitely be smuggling a dozen of in your bag on the way out).

    11. A copy of BuzzFeed's Tasty Latest & Greatest Cookbook, which is choc-full of delicious party recipes such as carne asada fries and sliders four ways! Get. In. My. Belly.

    12. A handsome stovetop espresso maker that makes rich, smooth espresso in under five minutes. Perfect for guests at the end of the night or just a little treat for themselves.

    13. A customizable light box to use as a perfect party decoration or just quirky everyday decor. Mine would say "Casper's #1 Fan."

    14. A cotton cross-back apron because 100% of hosts and hostesses want to look like they work in the Bon Appetit test kitchen. That's just a fact. Also it has pockets!

    15. A Capri Blue Volcano candle so you can have *NEWS FLASH* the candle they burn in Anthropologie, the greatest smelling place on planet earth!!! THAT'S a gift that keeps on giving.

    16. A set of wine glass markers because without them, guests will become befuddled and unable to figure out whose wine is whose. There are many, MANY problems in the world, but this is one we can actually fix!

    17. A stringed photo display for them to curate their own tiny museum of the party mems. Remember when Sheryl dropped all that potato salad? With a photo strung up proud, we'll never forget!

    18. A set of four Himalayan salt tequila glasses, because after the party is the afterparty, which is sure to include some misguided imbibing.

    19. A pack of adorable floral tea towels to jazz up the kitchen and help out when you yourself inevitably spill something.

    20. A pack of biodegradable paper straws whose cuteness and biodegradability will have party guests and sea-turtles equally thrilled!

    21. A customizable coaster set designed to look like old-school Polaroids. They'll simply fit and place their photos inside and voila! Old school memories (and safe, clean tabletops) in a *flash*.

    22. A Bali Soap gift set so everyone's hands can smell fresh as can be after digging into a vat of buffalo chicken dip (the only good dip, fight me).

    23. A dachshund ice cube tray so party-goers can cool down a beverage with a hot diggity dog.

    24. An olive oil dispenser set, because it's impossible to execute the perfect drizzle of olive oil to finish a caprese salad without one of these bad boys.

    25. An electric wine bottle opener so they can open any bottle of wine with little to no elbow grease. Not that they don't have elbow grease, but the middle of your own dinner party isn't an amazing time to bust it out.

    26. An adorable cactus diffuser to help them unwind with some aromatherapy whenever they like. The clay cactus slowwwly soaks up fragrance, gently diffusing it while looking cute as can be. This set also comes with oils to get them started!

    27. And lovely thank you notes, so they can be sure to show their never-ending gratitude for your incredible gifts!

    They'll love these gifts, but don't forget the golden rule!
