Hostess Gifts!!

Kaleigh, on June 30, 2019 at 10:57 PM Posted in Parties and Events 0 4
So my mom is planning my bridal shower at a local pottery painting place near my house. We’re decently friendly with the owners, and when they started offering this particular party, they called us immediately because they thought we’d love it! (Super nice!) At the party, everyone is given a tile to paint, and once they are done, the tiles will be grouted into a coffee table or an end table that FH and I get to keep! It’s really precious when all is said and done.

That being said, I know I’ll get my mom a hostess gift since she is doing all the planning, but I really want to get the two ladies that own the studio a small gift as well! They’re letting us have the party after hours so we get the whole building to ourselves and they gave my mom a discount on it because “Oh, we just love Kaleigh and Lucas so much! We want to help any way we can!”
FH suggested a nice thank you card and a Starbucks gift card, but I’m not sure. Any suggestions?

    A hand written thank you card with genuine gratitude can really go a long way. I think a gift card is a lovely thought to add as well, but you can always try and make it more personal. Since they own an art studio, maybe find something they could use as decoration or find out places they love to go and get a gift card for that. Make sure to give them a high rating on google/social media as well to help attract business to them.

    What a cool party idea!!!!!!!
    A gift card would be nice. I guess it's hard to tell since you don't exactly know them in that way to shop personalized for them.

    We're doing a little something nice for the owners of the B&B we'll be staying at. After my wedding, I'm breaking down leftover centerpieces and bouquets and making wreaths! I'm using sola wood flowers, so it's not like they'll wilt or anything. The mothers are both getting one, plus my aunt who is throwing my shower.

    The B&B is where we stayed when we got engaged and they were so warm and welcoming that I decided to do the same for them. Smiley smile

    Is there a little something meaningful you could make them, especially since it's a creative place?

    Hey Kaleigh!

    This sounds like such a fun bridal shower activity!! I love that all the tiles will be made into something that you and your FH can have in your home!

    A heartfelt card is a great way to express your gratitude for them being so kind to you and your mother. As Cori suggested, a gift card for an art supply store would be a super thoughtful gift!
