With everything from pretty pastel planters to homemade marmalade and even jewelry, these Brit + Co originals are sure to please. So instead of hitting up the store for a bottle of wine, show your love with one of these awesome projects.
1. Coasters: Cool. Concrete. Coasters. These bad boys are bound to impress your favorite host or hostess. Just be sure to make a few extra ones for yourself.
2. Hand-Stamped Table Runners: Stamped fabrics are totally our jam. These easy-peasy table runners are sure to add a little color to the appetizer spread.
3. Homemade Marmalade: Nothing spreads the love more than homemade jam or marmalade. Make a huge batch to gift to all your friends and maybe you’ll have a little left over for your morning toast.
4. Colorful Candles: All you need is a little tissue paper, some fun printables and a heat gun to make these gorg candles a reality.

15. Concrete Bangles: Instead of getting something for her house or kitchen, DIY these rad concrete bangles for her jewelry collection. She’ll appreciate it way more than just a bottle of wine.
16. Infused Oils: You can’t go wrong with infused oils. Whip up some of these and put ’em in a fun basket with a few other goodies for the ultimate hostess gift.

18. Candle Holders: Everybody needs some pretty candle holders for their home. Craft these up and feel free to play around with the paint for some color blocking action.
19. Color blocked Bowls + Spoons: You can never have too many wooden bowls and spoons, right? All you’ll need for this project is some painter’s tape and fun, bold paint colors.
