Top 5 Hosting & Entertaining Gifts
1) New England Spice Gift Set
Down east flavors from a spice gift set inspired by (and sourced from) New England. The set includes two of Curio Spice Co.’s signature spice blends along with Maine sea salt. It’s all directly sourced from farms and growers to ensure freshness and purity, and comes with recipe cards to help you get cooking.
2) Stainless Steel Wine Chiller
Pop a chilled bottle into this stainless steel wine chiller—like rosé, champagne, or even sparkling water—to keep it at a perfectly cool temperature for hours. No trips to the fridge or cooler needed, thanks to double-walled, vacuum-insulated stainless steel that also eliminates drippy condensation. Makes a great wedding or shower gift. Cheers to that.
3) Ceramic Tile Tray with Rope Handles
Kamsah: Ceramic Tile Tray with Rope Handles
4) Custom Map Coasters with Stand
Custom map coasters crafted from marble keep the memory of a special place—a first home, stand-out vacation, or wedding—close to you. Turkish marble is tumbled to make it one-of-a-kind, and a location from anywhere in the United States and the nine square mile-surrounding area are featured on the map. A compass rose will mark the exact spot and the map’s legend can be customized, too. Cast iron holder included. Made in Rhode Island.
5) Smartignition Electric Lighter
Start a fire or light a candle in an easier way. This electric lighter creates a charging arc without a flame or any odor. Best of all? It is USB rechargeable, so it’s a reusable and longer-lasting alternative to disposable butane lighters.
