5 gifts for the entertainer

We all have that friend (or family member) that continuously opens up their home for parties and intimate gatherings. They may also be the first to volunteer their home to host a holiday. Labeled as the entertainers of the group, their calendars are as neat and organized as their countertops.

How can you celebrate or say thank you to the person who provides you with fun weekends and a full tummy? With a gift that reflects their ‘hostess with the most-est’ personality.

Various products can help make their lives a little easier (and prettier) while trying to throw large multi-course meals, backyard BBQs, or hosting out-of-towners. We’ve outlined five creative and multi-purpose items that would make excellent gifts for the entertainer in your life. Whether it’s for a birthday, holiday, or to say thank you, your loved ones will be sincerely appreciative (and excited to throw their next party). 

You can never have enough of two things at a party, wine, and cheese. To help pair these magical items together, it takes more than just an ordinary serving dish – you need a beautifully designed charcuterie board. Made of authentic, eco-friendly teak wood, this charcuterie board fuses elegance with modern design to create an assortment of meats and cheeses that look insta-worthy. An actual multi-purpose product, this board can also plate appetizers in addition to your charcuterie spread.
When it comes to gift-giving, finding an item that can provide value both at a party and when the party is over is a true gem. That’s why this woven tray from Thirteen Chefs is the perfect gift. An ideal beverage display, or centerpiece for a picnic, can double as entryway decor or an ottoman accessory once everyone has gone home. Made of organic seagrass, each tray is handwoven using a variety of colors to create a beautiful design. Coming in two colors, pink and purple, these trays are sure to be a great addition to any festive event.
For the entertainer, no guest’s room would be complete without a basket full of homey items. Help them build their guests’ baskets together with this woven seagrass basket. Dressed in multi-colors, this basket measures 12-inches round and has two supporting handles for easy transport. Best of all, this basket can serve as multi-purpose when guests are away. The basket can be used for blankets, storage, and even a planter cover.
The entertainer who doubles as a mixologist with a stocked bar adds to their collection with a set of authentic Moscow mule mugs. Made of 100% copper, these quality mugs are great at keeping your cocktail ice cold even on the hottest days. Whether you choose the two or four-set, each set comes with an accompanying shot glass and an ebook. The ebook is complete with various fun and inventive cocktail creations they can enjoy out of their new mugs.
The decor is one of the most critical elements in throwing any party. Tapered candles are an easy and affordable way to elevate your dining setting instantly. By gifting a set of tapered candles, you’re not only giving the hostess a fun reason to get out their candlesticks (because we all know they have them) but contributing to an ambiance that’s both elegant and inviting. These unscented, tapered candles from Melt Candle come in 13 different colors and measure 10 inches tall.

While the entertainer in your life may not ask for much when throwing an event or a party, it’s incredibly thoughtful to keep them and their home in mind when shopping for the perfect gift. Each of these five options will be sure to add a nice touch to any soiree and warm a heart (or two).
