Mini Caramel Sauces

/

For the host with a sweet tooth, this is sure to be a treat! I see the poured over ice cream or shortbread cookies or enjoyed right off a spoon. 

Here's how to make someone happy: Give them six miniature jars of Spoonable's excellent rich, salty caramel sauce. Five simple ingredients (including smooth European-style butter and sea salt from the Camargue region of France) yield a perfectly smooth sauce. Included are a spicy chili caramel, a floral lavender caramel, a chewy sesame with white sesame seeds, a peppered orange with Tellicherry pepper and fresh orange zest, and a buttery apple pecan. - Food52

Maggiso Ceramic Wine Chiller

/

This wine chiller is amazing. Run it under cold water for a few minutes and it will then keep your bottle of wine cold for 2 - 4 hours. And let's face it, would any single bottle of wine even last 2 hours? You can even write on it with chalk to share the type of wine housed in it or anything else you wish.

We have used it a number of times and are always amazed at the results. The interior is coated so moisture does not transfer from the ceramic to the wine bottle. The ice bucket in this line is also sleek and super functional.

Beautiful Porcelian Hanging Planter

/

We first fell in love with these hanging planters made by Light + Ladder, a couple of years ago while browsing on Etsy. And we still love them today. Refined and delicate in appearance, eliciting feelings of calm from any viewer. In fact, everything Light + Ladder has to offer is beautiful and possesses a quiet elegance. 

One (or a set of 3) would make a lovely gift for your host this summer. We love the leather strap (which comes in 3 color options); the rope version would fit in perfectly with any beach/nautical themed home. 

Be sure to also look at their selection of hooks, ranging from round wood hooks to solid brass versions in your choice of round, square or hexagon.

Pie + Hidden Quote Pie Plate

/

How cute would it be to show up to a summer gathering with a delicious pie in a pie plate the host can keep? Up the fun factor by making the pie in one of these with a hidden quote on the bottom only to be revealed as the pie is eaten. Quotes like "Eat More Pie" and "Nom Nom Nom" are sure to make anyone chuckle.
