One thing that is filling up is my calendar with holiday parties and gatherings. As I want to be finished my shopping early this year, I'm already putting some thought to hostess gift ideas. I love giving gifts that are thoughtful, beautiful, and useful. A nice bottle of wine is always appreciated but why not give a gift that's a bit more unique? Now's the time too to order gifts that are personalized and have them arrive well before the holidays.

I've partnered with Etsy to showcase some of the unique treasures you can find on their site. Here's a list of hostess gift ideas with style. Which one would you love to receive?

We're all trying to be a little bit more earth-friendly these days, aren't we? These Swedish dishcloths are a gift you'll enjoy giving and they'll love using. The simple white design fits in with any style of decor. I keep some in the kitchen and the bathrooms for easy and quick cleanups.

This mini topiary makes a sweet addition to the kitchen counter for the holidays and beyond.

The description on this Champagne Brunch Room Spray says it is a blend of sparkling champagne, fresh peach, and strawberries. Who wouldn't want their home to smell that way!

This handmade ceramic strike matcher is the gift your hostess never knew they needed. Pair it with your favourite candle and you're done!

A classic gift for hosts and hostesses, this set of 4 personalized leather coasters looks beautiful even when it's not in use

This vintage style spray mister (it comes in brass or rose gold) would be a lovely and useful gift for the gardener on your list.

I have this striped Japanese apron myself. It gets lots of use during party prep and on crafting nights!

Looking for a gift for special family friends? This personalized cutting board would be perfect. I'd pair it with some favourite jams and jellies for a gift that is sure to be loved.

This leather bound recipe book, embossed with your hostess' initials, is a gift that will be treasured. I think it would be lovely gift for parents or grandparents as well. What better way to record family recipes?

I adore this Fir Tree Botanical Tea Towel so much. It's holiday themed without being too cutesy. A single towel hanging on the stove would make a dramatic yet classic statement.
