The Best Housewarming Gifts for the Holidays
If you know someone who has just moved into a new home, it’s the perfect time to get them a great housewarming gift. Thoughtful gifts are always well received and feel even better to give. We have the guide for the best housewarming gifts for each type of loved one in your life, from foodies, plant lovers, decoration aficionados, and comfort seekers.
For the Foodie
Your foodie friend or family member loves hosting and gathering around food and drinks, right? Some of the best items you can gift them are things that can help them achieve the perfect bite. If they are moving into their first home, they might not have some kitchen staples like a slow cooker or KitchenAid mixer. But if you’re thinking of something more custom, try picking up a unique charcuterie board or engraved wine glasses.
For the Plant Lover
For your loved one who loves plants, there are a variety of great ones to gift; you almost can’t go wrong. One of our top favorites is a money tree, as it’s thought to bring good luck and prosperity to the owner.
Another great gift that serves multiple purposes is an indoor herb garden. They look great and can be used whenever your giftee needs a little basil or oregano with dinner.
If you’re looking for a plant that has thoughtful meaning behind it, pick up a plant called Zanzibar Gem, also known as the “eternity plant.” This plant is great for couples starting a new chapter in life together. Even better, it’s effortless to care for and can go weeks without watering — now that’s our kind of plant.
For the Decor Aficionado
The decoration enthusiast in your life knows exactly how to turn a house into a home with stunning, warm, and inviting decor to dress up their new space. So, let’s get them the unexpected extras since they’ve already got their style.
A custom welcome sign or mat for their front porch would set the stage for new guests. It also helps keep floors clean, which is a help to any new homeowner! Personalized artwork is another excellent choice. Try having their new home turned into an illustration and providing them with a subtle 5x7” piece for their home.
But you also can’t go wrong with a decorative candle with a non-intrusive fragrance for our environment-enhancing friends. Double up the gift with a candle care set of a snuffer and wick trimmer.
For the Comfort Seeker
Gifting comfortability for new homeowners is our favorite category. If you’re buying for a first-time home buyer, they likely don’t have a nice new cotton towel set.
The comfort seeker’s favorite spot in the house is probably snuggling under a comfy throw blanket while binge-watching their new favorite series. Plus, is there really such a thing as too many blankets?
Home is where the heart is, and giving someone you love a great housewarming gift can make them really feel special and help them turn their house into a home.
