It’s Getting Personal(sized)
Want your hostess gift to stand out this year? Well, you can’t go wrong with our personalized clear acrylic tray. These gifts are perfect because they work year-round and match any decor or style. It’s elegant yet modern and is ideal for serving holiday treats. This personalized square tray is made from quality, durable acrylic and will stand the test of time while remaining easy to clean. After the party, the hostess can use this cute tray on a vanity or coffee table as a pretty and functional finishing touch. At only $36, this tray is budget-friendly but still an incredibly thoughtful and personal gift. If you want to splurge on the ultimate hostess gift, our go-to is a Personalized Cutting Board. These beautiful wooden boards are beyond helpful and can be used for serving (cheese plate, anyone?) or everyday chopping and dicing in the kitchen. The square shape is elegant and unique and will look great in a kitchen of any size. Please keep it simple with a single initial or customise your artwork.
Shatterproof Cups
Our personalized shatterproof Christmas cups spread holiday cheer during your holiday gathering. You can customize your Christmas party cup in a variety of ways. These are perfect for Christmas cocktail parties because they look way more chic than solo cups (and did we mention they’re personalized?!). The best part about these cups is that they are reusable.
Stir Up the Fun
You can personalize your custom drink stirrer with a monogram, single initial, or design. We have a variety of swizzle stick tops and sizes. Use them in drinks or as food skewers for appetizers. They’re perfect for hot chocolate or an adult beverage!

Pour the remaining chocolate into the bottom of the glasses and swirl to coat the bottom of the glasses with chocolate. Place the glasses in the freezer while you prepare the drink!
