My Mostess Hostess GIFT GUIDE on The Eagle’s Nest!

You know you want to look…

Hey everyone, I’m over at The Eagle’s Nest today helping out new mommy Jess! In addition to juggling her new duties, she works full-time in interior design and creates a bedding line on Etsy called Nest Studio. How does she do it all??

I often wonder this exact thought about the amazing hostesses out there this time of year. I used to be a holiday over-achiever (“pre-kid”) and now I understand why my friends looked at me like I was crazy. So this gift guide is for you, holiday hostesses! Hold on to that craziness while you can! ;o)

Cheers to you, you deserve all this and more!

    Thanks Erika! I LOVE the gift guide. We managed to host a holiday brunch this weekend with 20+ people. Although the key was buying all the food pre made. The baby slept through the entire event which was good as well. And of course now I’m perusing the blogs with him strapped to me in his carrier. We’ll see how long that lasts!

    Love your gifts guides and this one is no exception! I wish I could just buy one of each and stash them away for when we get invited to parties throughout the year. :)
