Summer time hosting is in full swing and if you'll be spending any time staying with family or friends you've probably been asking yourself, "What can I bring?"  Well, these pretty picks will leave your gracious hostess feeling tickled pink and knowing you care. Standard go-tos get an upgrade whenever you add a personal touch.  Coasters and catch-alls go from nice to noteworthy when you add a monogram.  Honestly, I don't know if there's anything I love more.  It must be the way they channel my inner southern girl, haha.  These cheese board accessories are so pretty and the blush and gold combo is everything.  Not sure what her new decor looks like?  White always works and definitely provides the perfect backdrop for food and flowers to shine.  A wine rack is always a welcome addition to any home and the chic design of this one is just beautiful.  I recently picked one up for a friend  and she absolutely loved it!  Finally, a deliciously scented candle is always a most-appreciated sentiment and they are also usually what we all love most but hardly ever buy for ourselves.  

Hope everyone is enjoying a festive start to this July 4th week...Thanks for sharing a part of it with me!

Merry Monday!  I hope you all had a fun time welcoming in the festive season this first weekend in December!  I spent part of mine enjoying some holiday cheer with friends, sharing sweet and savory sips and snacks.  The mood was perfect thanks to our wonderful and bubbly hostess!  Certain girls just make everyone feel welcome and one-hundred percent at home.  Friends like that deserve the absolute best  and when it comes to gifting, they always love pretty little pieces like these that I'm sharing today.  From catchy coasters to gorgeous linens, the home chefs in your life will adore these special picks.  These ombre pink napkins are so beautiful and truly seasonlesss as well.  Pair them with this tablecloth and some gold flatware and seasonal florals and you've got the makings of a fabulous tablescape.  Friends who love to read about food (or just drool over the delicious pictures!) will love getting books like The Cocktail Party from Mary Giuliani and Weekday, Weekend by Emma Chapman and Elsie Larson.  Sweet treats in pretty pastel colors are also on the domestic goddess' most-wished for list (especially ones put in a beautiful display box like these).  If you're feeling your sweet tooth kick in, or you just want to see more, I've linked these pieces for you down below.  I know your next party host will thank you!!  

Have a wonderful day, everyone!
