Let's talk about gift-giving for the host in your life—you know, the one who always says "just bring yourself" but secretly loves when you show up with something thoughtful. Or maybe you're shopping for someone who needs a gentle nudge into the world of entertaining. Either way, we've got you covered.

The best gifts for entertainers aren't just beautiful—they're useful, versatile, and make hosting feel less like work and more like joy. Here's how to nail it this year.

For the Seasoned Host: The Collector's Dream

The Party Platter System If they already love hosting, give them the gift that keeps on giving: the Vary Entertaining Collection. One beautiful platter base with interchangeable discs means they can switch up their look for every season and celebration without buying (or storing) a dozen different serving pieces.

Why it's genius: They'll think of you every single time they host. That's gift-giving gold.

Pro tip: This week only (Dec 7-13), buy 3 Party Discs and get 25% off the entire order. Start their collection or add to it—either way, you're winning at gifting.

Price Range: Party Platter Base $29-40 | Party Discs $10-20 each

For the Golf Lover: Tee Time at the Table

Golf Dishware Collection Dinnerplates, salad plates, and serving pieces that bring country club vibes to everyday dining. This is the gift for the person who "has everything" but definitely doesn't have golf-themed dishware that's actually stylish.

Why they'll love it: It's unexpected, practical, and every meal becomes a mini celebration of their favorite hobby. Plus, it's dishwasher safe—because nobody's hand-washing after a long day on the course.

Perfect for: Dads, fathers-in-law, golf buddies, the boss, that couple who just renovated their kitchen and needs something special.

Currently 15% off through December 6th!

Price Range: $10-40 per piece

For the Reluctant Host: The Gateway Gift

Start with a Statement Piece Know someone who claims they "don't really entertain"? Gift them one gorgeous piece that makes hosting feel effortless. A beautiful serving platter can be the nudge they need to finally invite people over.

The Psychology: When you have something beautiful, you want to use it. Give them the Party Platter and watch them become the friend who hosts. It's basically magic.

Gift-Giving Rules for Entertaining Essentials

Rule #1: It Must Be Dishwasher Safe Nobody has time for hand-washing. If it's high-maintenance, it's not a gift—it's a burden.

Rule #2: Versatility is Everything Single-use items collect dust. Choose pieces that work for multiple occasions—breakfast, dinner parties, holiday gatherings, Tuesday wine nights.

Rule #3: Storage Should Be Simple If it requires a storage unit or takes up half their cabinet, it's not thoughtful. Our Party Discs stack flat and store easily—no Marie Kondo intervention required.

Rule #4: Make It Personal (But Practical) The best gifts reflect their personality AND get used regularly. Golf lover? Golf dishware. Serial host? Party Platter system. See how easy this is?

The "One for Them, One for Me" Strategy

Here's a secret: the best time to treat yourself is when you're already shopping for gifts. Nobody needs to know you added a Party Disc to your own collection while checking out. We call it "gift-giving efficiency."

Current Deal: Buy 3 Party Discs, get 25% off your entire order (Dec 9-15). Perfect for splitting between gifts and your own stash.

Wrapping It Up (Literally)

Presentation Matters: Our products photograph beautifully and look stunning wrapped. Add a ribbon, include a note about why you chose it, and watch them unwrap something they'll actually use.

Gift Receipt Pro Tip: Always include one. Not because they'll return it (they won't), but because it shows you put thought into it.

The Bottom Line

The best gifts for people who entertain aren't just objects—they're invitations. Invitations to gather, to celebrate, to create beautiful moments around the table. Whether you're shopping for a seasoned host or someone who's just discovering the joy of having people over, choose something that makes entertaining feel less like work and more like what it should be: fun.
