DECANTING NO MORE
Is it really a party without wine? Take hosting to the next level and open the wines up to their full potential.
Help your favorite hostess impress guests with the Vinturi Red Wine Aerator, which creates a fuller flavor and smoother finish than you’d get from over an hour of decanting.
Breathe life into wines instantly, with or without a decanter. The simple act of pouring wine through the aerator increases pressure as you pour, drawing in and mixing just the right amount of air without a battery, charcoal or filter. It’s sure to be one of the best hostess gift ideas.

The Barcelona Brushed Silver Decorative Lighter is designed to be held gracefully and put on display, too attractive to hide away, stylish and decorative as the candles, fireplaces, and chimney’s they light.

Trudon

SPRAY OF SUNSHINE
If essential oils aren’t your thing but you still want to gift a home fragrance, the Trudon Josephine room spray is a great gift option. The spray bottle and addicting floral fragrance are handmade in Italy, with notes of roses, jasmine, camelias and irises. Named for “Marie Josèphe Rose Tascher de la Page, also known under the name of Joséphine de Beauharnais, the first wife of the Emperor Napoléon Bonaparte.”
“During her life, she will find refuge in the Reuil Malmaison castle that will soon become the center of her existence. Reckless spender and passionate of botanic, she will concentrate in building an atypical garden implanting species from her travels and reminding her of her creole origins. Unable to give him an heir, Napoleon asks for divorce. From then on her garden will become a place of solitude and reassurance,” Trudon says.
