Wine-O cards slip perfectly onto a wine bottle neck and come in fun shapes and contemporary patterns like "hexy" and "organic" (both pictured below) . Better yet, they open up so that you can write a little note inside!

Ultimate Entertaining Giveaway Prizes: Jonathan Adler

Hostess with the Mostess + Yum Sugar Ultimate Holiday Entertaining Giveaway If you follow home product design even a little, then you’re probably very well aware of the name "Jonathan Adler ".
