Gift Guide: Hostess (Fun, Thoughtful Finds Under $30!)

You can easily bring flowers, or a bottle of wine, and be a successful party guest. I’m actually all for the wine, naturally, however why not spend roughly the same amount and give your hard-working hostess something to enjoy long after the party has ended? A majority of the gifts below are under $30 and are fun, whimsical and thoughtful ways to show your bff, mom or co-worker you care.

[TAGG TIP: If you are bringing flowers, try to bring them in a vase or instead go for a potted plant — I love an orchid. As gorgeous as flowers are to receive, nothing is harder than trying to find a vase, trim flowers and get them situated as you’re also trying to welcome a dozen guests at once.]
