Little numerology coasters! 

Here below are cute place mats that are fun conversation pieces as well!

 LOVE some fun cookbooks and humorous coffee table books!

Nothing like a fresh bouquet of flowers for their home! I ALWAYS think this is a winner, especially if you don't know the hostess very well OR if the party is at their home and the florals can be worked into the decor!

 Another HILARIOUS photo/coffee table book! I really did laugh outloud when I 1st saw this!

 Nothing like some personalized Chapel Hill candles from ony of my besties, Betsy Fox's company "FoxGlow"!

 Again, here is the evidence of my obsession with monograms! This is from www.laplates.com  and they are very affordable if you have mulitple host/hostesses. Comes in a large variety of patterns and colors! LOVE!

 How fun are these cute dish washing gloves? Makes the duty a little more glamorous, don't ya think?!

 These are fun labels for cookbooks, magazines, etc.

 LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the idea of doing a little breakfast basket for the next morning! Check out this cute one below? Thanks to William Sonoma! Another idea would be Starbucks coffee and cute mugs!

 I mean this may be a little much if you have multiple people to buy for but how cute is it?! Again, notice the monograms....

 Cute notepads that are personalized with graphic patterns such as the lattice print below...oh and the monogram?! :)

 LOVE elephants and these are my favorite colors...cute stationery for the hostess to display on their desk or at home.

 Unique cheese grater!

 Another breakfast in bed or morning after idea!

 Cute Coasters found on www.etsy.com

 More ideas of personalized stationery that is so pretty and thoughtful!

 Yummy Southern Breakfast kit! Like that it's in a wooden crate too for that extra touch!

 How cute is this cutlery holder?! I want one!

 Fun wine labels and conversation pieces for your cocktail party!

 Cute candles for your shower!

 Such a favorite for a couple's shower if you have only 1 or 2 couples to buy for!
