Saying Thank-You

They’ve opened their home to you for hospitality and celebration. What do you bring along to say thank you? A bottle of wine is welcome and traditional. Isn’t there a more lasting way to express your gratitude?

Here are our top five ideas for gifts for the host or hostess.

#5 National Park Coffee Mugs

Start the day with the Great Outdoors. These oversized mugs pay tribute to America’s Treasures with their designs based on labels for our popular National Park Series blankets.

Pendleton's oversized mugs, emblazoned with the labels and stripes of Pendleton national Park blankets, are set out on a rustic set of steps made from weathered bricks.

#4 Oversized Spa Towels

Whether used at the beach or as a bath sheet at home, there is a towel to suit everyone’s personality here, including fun collabs with Disney, Harry Potter and Tommy Bahama.

Colorful Pendleton beach and spa towels are draped on the rungs of three wooden ladders, and one is in a basket on the tile floor.

#3 Pendleton x Yeti Yoga Mats
