Infused Oil …
Oil Stores are popping up all over with good reason, they’re delicious. Choose a flavored oil and vinegar then package with some vine ripened tomatoes and a sprig of basil and fresh mozzarella cheese.

Beach Towel …
These are no ordinary towels, they make a picnic at the beach an occasion.

Flowers …
Flowers this time of year are such a welcomed gift especially if they’re from your garden. I like to have extra Ikea glass vases on hand (from $1.79 and up) and some raffia to tie around the top, quick, easy + looks great.

Home Baked Goods …
If you bake that’s perfect, if not no worries there are plenty of bakeries along the way to pick up a delicious dessert and fresh seasonal fruit.
My favorite … seasonal berries, fresh ricotta cheese (season with agave, vanilla extract and add dark chocolate mini chips) and some sort of cake like a pound cake.

Candles …
Outdoor/Indoor candles from tea lights to lanterns are plentiful this time of year + there’s always room for more!

Spa Basket …
Indulge your hostess with a basket of spa/bath items to relax after the weekend!
