6 Perfect Picks for the White Elephant Party

You know it, you love it -- it's the White Elephant party! If you've never participated in one, we'll explain the rules. Everyone at the party brings a wrapped gift, maybe a silly one, maybe a useful one, but almost always under about $25. Participants get the chance to steal gifts from others if they want them (though most hosts choose to limit the number of times an item is stolen). 

There's nothing more fun than bringing the gift that everyone wants to steal! Here are a few options for you to bring to your next White Elephant.

 

Maryland Flag Crab Shell Ornament

There's something so classic about choosing to bring a Christmas ornament, and we know everyone at the party is going to want to hang this baby on their tree! 

Maryland Map Pint Glass

This isn't just a practical item (though we can all use a pint glass, no matter what it is we like to drink!). This is also a work of art that folks will love showing off -- and they'll want to steal it for sure.

 

Utz Chip Bag Dip Bowl

Aspiring hosts will definitely want to get their hands on this fun chip and dip platter! It also makes an amazing gift for whoever is throwing the party to thank them for having everyone over.

 

Holiday Crabs Kitchen Towel

Getting the kitchen ready for the holidays is a rite of passage all over the country, but this kitchen towel has a particularly Maryland twist! It's perfect for home chefs and crab lovers alike. 

 

Quilted Maryland Flag Cosmetic Bag

Makeup lovers will compete like no one's business to be the proud owner of this distinctive and gorgeous cosmetic bags! If you're going to a party with folks who obsess over GRWM vids, this is a must-buy. 

 

Natty Boh Baseball Script Clear Bag

This is another item that's as useful as it is Maryland-proud! It's ideal for groceries, schoolbooks, and of course, holiday gifts. Everyone at the party will hope they can steal it.
