I attended a housewarming party over the weekend, and I hate arriving empty-handed. I baked double batch of my best-ever chocolate chip cookies for the assembled crew—but as for the hostess? It's so tricky to guess what someone might like, even if you have a sense of her style. I ended up giving her a gift card for a decor boutique, but it felt painfully impersonal and it made me aware that I need to step up my hostess gift game in time for this year's gauntlet of holiday parties!
So my recent discovery of the San Francisco brand Small Gunns comes not a moment too soon! The line of chicly utiliarian homewares has enough personality to feel unique and thoughtful, yet it's also appealing to men and women, minimalists and fancy-pants alike. They've just released a collection of linens with CB2, plus I adore the type treatment on their signature candles and can confirm that they smell as divine as they sound. You'll probably want to pick up a Fig + Honey or Cypress + Sandlewood candle for a cozy winter vibe in your own home. You host yourself all day every day, after all!
Thanks so much for the feature, Anne! We’re so honored you love our products!
