Welcome to my Home for the Holidays but maybe you are going away for the Holidays or going to a holiday party?
Today’s post is all about Hostess gifts: Some idea’s you can make yourself:
- Bouquet of flowers in a vase.
- Boxed candies.
- Potted plant.
- Bottles of wine.
- Tin of cookies.
- Decorator candles.
- Guest soaps.
- Flavored vinegars.
Homemade candy or cookies
Plant in a cup :
Take a large cup and fill with cactus soil and small stones. Fill with small cactus plants. And accessories. You can personalize with a sharpie.
Grab a great bottle of wine to share and make fun tags for your glasses. Made with charms, beads, and wire holders.
A basket of Seasonal bath & body products:
I grabbed a container from the Dollar store and filled it with homemade bath and beauty products. You can match the holiday or your hostess likes. Check my blog for recipes.
Cranberry Vinegar :
- 3/4 cup white vinegar
- 3/4 cup water
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 package (12 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries
In a saucepan, bring all ingredients to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes or until the cranberries burst. Cool. Strain through a fine sieve into sterilized bottles or jars. Seal tightly. Discard cranberries and cinnamon stick. Chill until ready to use in your vinegar-and-oil salad dressing.
