Basically, you put the bottle of wine inside one of the socks and then tie the other sock around the neck of the wine bottle and you don't have to wrap it! I got Christmasy fuzzy socks. This year, we may make up an olive oil and cracked pepper dip set for bread. There is a neat little olive oil shop near the party that sells all different flavors of olive oils.

You are brilliant, creative, and thoughtful. I especially like the bagels + cream cheese idea. I'm a completely practical kind of girl so I like things that are immediately useful. That said, I never turn down a good bottle of wine...and your homemade tortilla chips sound SO good (Is it lunchtime yet?). So many good ideas, Darcie! You are brilliant, creative, and thoughtful.

I also enjoy receiving and giving a bouquet of flowers - particularly something like gerbera daisy's. I love your fruit and nut jar and breakfast for the next day ideas the most!

Some of the great hostess presents I received were homemade coasters or napkins (you can purchase these on etsy.com if you don't want to make them yourself). Once I received a wonderful salad dressing (blush wine vinaigrette)...great contrast from all the treats I receive during the holiday season.
