Gift Guide: For the Hostess Under $30

The gift guide for the hostess is one of my favorites because it is all about presentation and being a thoughtful guest. Just a little something is enough to say "thank you" (since we all know how much work goes into entertaining!) at the next holiday gathering. You don't need to spend a lot a money to buy a lovely gift since everything here is under thirty dollars. While the traditional gifts of wine and flowers are always appreciated, sometimes buying a special "treat" that your hostess wouldn't normally buy for herself is even more appreciated.
