Flowers for all Occasions
This time of year I always take a vintage mason jar full of flowers for the garden when invited to someone’s house. The vintage jar is a gift, as are the flowers. People are always excited about a jar full of flowers and I’m happy to share the loveliness from my garden. Yesterday we celebrated a friend’s birthday.
Flowers make such a nice addition to the table too. For our celebration I made a tiny bouquet for the cheese platter and put tiny black violets in the jar around the tea light.
Vegetable also make nice gifts, I find myself often harvesting a nice head of lettuce or packaging up some eggs to take as gifts. I’m a huge fan of gifting items that can be enjoyed and then they are gone.
What’s your favorite thing to take as a hostess gift?

Beautiful bouquet! Looks like some of mine! :) We always take gifts from the garden or kitchen too! Who doesn’t love homegrown flowers, veggies, eggs, homemade bread, etc. We have perfected our home cured olive recipe, so those are always appreciated!
