These Thoughtful Housewarming Gifts Will Help Loved Ones Feel At Home In Their New Digs

Nothing quite brightens up a room like fresh flowers. Add some sunshine to their new home with a bouquet of white roses, yellow yarrow, hot pink alstroemeria, green lepidum, and more. All the flowers from the Bouqs are sourced from sustainable farms (in this particular case, from Ecuador), and then are arranged by florists and delivered fresh to your door.

Keep their toes cozy with a pair of comfy cotton slippers. These Parachute slippers are made with 100 percent cotton and have thick cushioning as well as rubber soles to prevent slipping. They come in two different colors and in unisex sizing; you may even want to give an extra pair so you can wear them when you go visit.One reviewer said, “These are the most comfortable slippers I have purchased! They are well worth the price. I LIVE in them.”

This Brightland olive oil duo tastes delicious and looks great sitting on a countertop too. The olives are sourced from a family-run California farm and are custom-blended into two varieties: The Awake oil for cozy nights, and the Alive oil for active days.One reviewer said, “I will never go back to other oils again. Brightland has brought a whole new dimension to our meals. I will make these products my go-to gift for friends and family.”

Chances are, you’ve seen this pan on your Instagram feed, and for good reason — not only is it chic, but it’s designed to be multi-functional and can replace your fry pan, saute pan, skillet, steamer, spoon rest, and more. The pan has a non-toxic, nonstick ceramic coating, built-in spoon rest, pour spouts, and comes with a nesting steamer/colander. Plus, it comes in a number of muted colors to complement all types of kitchen decor. All in all, it’s the ideal gift for minimalists or anyone moving into a small space (city apartment, perhaps?).One reviewer said, “This is by far the best pan I have ever purchased. I have been looking for a good skillet but within a year it’s in the trash. Not only is this pan easy to clean, it’s a non-stick pan, you can even use it to steam vegetables. I leave it on my stovetop. It may be pricey but it’s worth every penny.”

A home with plants is a happy home. Add a bit of greenery to a new home by giving them a low-maintenance snake plant that even brown thumbs can keep alive. The plant has striking vertical leaves and doesn’t require much sun or water, making it the ideal extra roommate.

Add a pop of color to their cabinets and tables with this set of gorgeous, colorful stemless glasses. Estelle’s founder was inspired by her grandmother’s love of antiquing, and these glasses are hand blown by artisans in Poland to make a statement in a new home. Drinking wine or water out of these glasses will make any hour feel like a happy hour.

Enjoy a little wine tasting right in a new home. The Cascade Collection includes a flight of wines from Washington state, picked to best represent that wine-growing region. They’ll get a six-pack of mini wines, including Pinot Gris, Riesling, Rosé, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. You can also order a pack of just one varietal, or try other wines from around the world. Each bottle is 187 mL, big enough to share, but small enough if you don’t want to. And once they’re empty, they make great little planters or bottles for trinkets.

Once you upgrade to good olive oil, there’s no turning back. Treat your friends to the real good stuff – straight from Puglia, Italy, where farmers have been growing olives for centuries – with Especially Puglia’s Adopt an Olive Tree. This extra virgin olive oil is fresh, single-harvested and produced on a family-run organic farm. Supporting farmers + treating your friends = win/win. Choose from a single gift box, which includes a three-liter tin of olive oil, a ceramic olive cruet with a funnel and a handmade wooden gift box, or gift your buds a year’s subscription, so they’ll receive another three-liter tin every three months. 

Celebrate their new home with a set of unique coasters, which can be customized to show approximately nine square miles surrounding their new address, including streets and landscape features. The coasters are made of marble and have a cork backing, and will make a great conversation piece.One reviewer said, “Got it for someone who just bought their first home, and they loved it!!”

Let your friends enjoy a morning coffee or tea in matching monogrammed mugs. These stoneware mugs were inspired by French bistro tilework and come in every letter of the alphabet, so you can buy one or two or a few to stock up the cabinets.

Perhaps *the* best housewarming gift for couples who love to entertain, Casamia’s “CasaMINIs” are like a get-together in a box. The Crudité & Charcuterie set is perfect for setting out munchies for happy hour or pre-dinner hors d’oeuvres and includes everything but the food. There’s a lovely marble and acacia wood cheese board, a cheese knife, reusable cheese markers and food-safe pen, and two of the cutest dishes you’ve ever seen in your freakin’ life (one resembles half a tomato, the other, a red pepper). A stack of artichoke napkins completes the set so the lucky recipients will be ready to serve guests as soon as they’ve unpacked.

A good cup of tea can be calming no matter what time of day. Give a monthly tea subscription (choose between three-, six-, and 12-month options), and each month they’ll get delicious loose leaf tea, tasting notes, steeping recommendations, and a postcard from the country of origin. Plus, all the teas are single origin and ethically sourced from small farms around the world.One reviewer said, “This is such a thoughtfully composed tea subscription, from the packaging to the ethical sourcing to the taste. My first box included a black and green tea from Indonesia, and they were both crowd pleasers! I’m ready to be impressed again by the next box!”

Moving into a new home — and all the seemingly unending unpacking and organizing after — can be exhausting. Make sure they have some caffeine to keep them going by giving them a monthly subscription of freshly roasted coffee (there’s also decaf available). Bean & Bean is founded by a mother/daughter team, and they also partner with The Sloth Institute so that one percent of online sales are donated to help protect sloths from deforestation and adverse environmental changes.

Whether they have a nostalgic hometown dish or are looking to find a favorite in their new neighborhood, Goldbelly has them covered. The food delivery has dishes from iconic restaurants from all over the country, whether they’re craving a New York bagel, Texas BBQ, or a dish from a James Beard-winning chef. Bon appetit, indeed.

Combining both practicality and style, this “Jack of all trays” is sturdy, oversized, and super versatile, making it a wonderful housewarming gift. Whether the giftee uses it to serve up drinks and bites, as a coffee table display, or to organize their vanity, this multitasking accent piece does it all. But here’s the coolest part: You can customize the tray by choosing either clear, white, or black acrylic, then picking from different inserts (which can be swapped out to change its look in the future). From entertaining guests to decorating the living room to savoring breakfast in bed, this is one gift that won’t add clutter to their new home (in fact, it’ll help eliminate it).
