Air Travel Hostess Gift Ideas

Arriving empty handed isn’t an option when staying several nights at someone’s home. Though the gift takes a little more consideration when traveling by air. If, like me, you only pack a carry on - your options become more limited: no liquids, anything that melts, or can be easily broken. Oh, and doesn’t compete for much packing space.

I’m a fan of cocktail napkins & holder. Can a person have too many, I think not. Durable, compact, and delightful to open. The host can use them during your stay or save for another occasion.

Once wrapped, the bow is saved until arrival to maximize freshness and always accompanied by a hand written thank you note.

I’ve always used black ink for my notes - though recently heard mentioned that the late Rosalynn Carter was known (at the age of 96) to still send cards written in blue ink.

Cheers to cocktail napkins, blue ink, and keeping the Art of Etiquette alive!
