The 38 Best Housewarming Gifts
A thoughtfully chosen housewarming gift can help a new house become a home. But the last thing anyone who has just packed (and unpacked) all of their earthly possessions needs is stuff for stuff’s sake.
Still, down payments and movers are never easy on the bank account. Gift certificates to Home Depot and Lowe’s are always appreciated for all of the little fixes that come along with a new home. But if you want to support loved ones who have settled into a new space with something more personalized, give them something useful or delicious, like a trick empty book or a stuffed gift basket—or just something beautiful that they’re unlikely to get for themselves but suits their lifestyle.
