If you’ve exhausted your candle reserves, your lotion hoard, and your florist is just about tired of seeing your perfectly higlighted face, we’ve got a hostess gift idea that’s going to nab you another invite. A cheese board might seem like the sort of froufrou gift you only give to people who really have it all, but these pretty and practical home picks are actually a lot more practical than people give them credit for. For example, while we love a chic cheese plate on wood and marble boards, we’ve also served breakfast scones on ours. Another idea? Bread and spreads. It’s bascially a chic tray that you can use for just about anything, no matter the season. So while some hostess gifts get tucked away for special occasions, these boards are sure to stick around all year long.
