Located in The Galleria Mall, you can pick up the perfect dress for your event and the perfect bag to go with your dress – or wine as the case may be. Of course, the standard hostess gift is to bring a bottle of wine, but spruce up your wine delivery with this cute wine bag from Henri Bendel. After all, you are dressing to impress for many holiday parties. Shouldn't your wine reflect that sense of style too?
Not just for canning anymore, glass mason jar jugs have become a beautiful and versatile gift. Sure you may have seen the cookies in the jar or salads served, but have you seen the Glass Mason Jar Jugs at Paper Source in Highland Village? The next time you visit, you may find your hostess gift adorning the table and filled with flowers, candles or put to several good decorative uses by a creative hostess.
Everyone loves a great smelling candle, but step it up a notch by gifting your hostess with a diffuser.

Visit Lily Rain in Rice Village to make your sweet smelling selection.

Located in Rice Village, The Woodlands and CityCentre Kendra Scott Jewelry makes a thoughtful hostess gift.
