Did someone you know just move into a new home? If they are having a housewarming party, you should consider bringing them something special. Below are a few tried-and-true housewarming gifts you can’t go wrong with.
Plants
Whether real or faux, plants make excellent housewarming gifts. If you choose a natural plant, try The Sill Kalanchoe Flapjack ($68, shop here), categorized as a beginner plant. For an artificial choice, check out the Afloral Hanging Tradescantia Houseplant ($38, shop here).
Candles
Many people enjoy lighting candles around the house. Some have specific scent preferences, so we suggest casually asking what they like so you can surprise them with a candle they love. We recommend the Diptyque Eucalyptus Candle ($74, shop here) or the L’or de Seraphine Ares Candle ($36, shop here).
Cocktail Shaker and Tool Set
Someone who enjoys a good cocktail would benefit from a cocktail tool set. We particularly like this Mixology and Craft Stainless Steel Cocktail Shaker Bartender Kit ($79.99, shop here) because it includes 10 tools and has a bamboo stand to keep everything organized. We also like this Pottery Barn Sweet July Stainless Steel Bar Tools & Cocktail Shaker Set ($88.99, shop here), with eight pieces and a beautiful bronze finish.
Throw Blanket
Who doesn’t love a cozy blanket to cuddle up with? We love the Pottery Barn Faux Fur Ruched Throw Blanket ($179, shop here), which comes in eight colorways and two sizes. Another blanket you can’t go wrong with is the plush Spoonful of Comfort Cozy Comfort Throw ($49.99, shop here), which makes you feel like you’re being hugged.
Serving Board
A serving board is a thoughtful gift for the cook or cheese lover in your life. Check out the Uncommon Goods Sliding Cheese & Snack Board ($60 shop here), which includes four ceramic dishes and four cheese-serving utensils. We also like this Williams-Sonoma Marble Honeycomb Cheese Board with Cheese Knives ($109.95, shop here), made of high-quality white marble and decorated with gold-finished zinc honeybees.
