These are the best of the best, so school through and see if one strikes your fancy (and your vision).
For Winos
When you can a lot of loved ones together, a glass of wine may be on a lot of minds. So, pay homage to the splendid taste and smell of wine with a gift that they can use while indulging in their favorite palate.

For our wine-loving gal pals, some socks that speak to that love could be a nice parting gift. They come in all kinds of colors and various sizes, so this charming, humorous present is nice for all.
Alloy Heart Bottle Stoppers | $39.90 for 24

Pure Honey Minis | $50.96 for 72
Pots of honey are a nice route to take as well. A bit more unique but just as functional, send your guests home with bouts of sweetness they can add to their tea, desserts, or drizzle over morning toast.
Scented Candles
We’re all about functional favors and that’s why candles always make the “best of the best” list when it comes to favors or thank you gifts. Here’s a collection of a few in this genre that always works.
