Don't get us wrong: Wine is wonderful. But if you want to go beyond the bottle when helping friends, family members, and new neighbors feather their nests, take a cue from these stylish and thoughtful housewarming gifts our editors love to give.
For the decor-savvy nester, spring for a pretty-yet-practical coffee table book. Bursting with wow-worthy vignettes and beautiful interiors, Emily Henderson's Styled will provide the inspiration and advice she craves.
A Happy Houseplant
The houseplant is super hip these days, and even the most humble hints of green can cheer up a room. Opt for a small, easy-care plant or terrarium that can nestle into a bookshelf or take up residence on a tabletop. A preppy pot doesn't hurt, either.
A Token of Their Neighborhood
Whether it's a vintage postcard featuring their new city or a pillow printed with their ZIP code, a gift with ties to their new locale is both unique and memorable.
A Personalized Address Stamp
Give their address change the ultimate stamp of approval with a handmade design worthy of the snail-mail spotlight.
Stylish Sips
Settling in to a new space calls for a toast. Make at-home happy hour even more enjoyable with a darling set of drinkware. These vintage aqua leaf lowball glasses will leave them swooning.
Tasty Local Treats
Win their hearts through their stomachs with goodies from a local bakery or candy shop. Or, nudge them to get started on their new-city bucket list with a gift certificate to a nearby restaurant.
Luxe Goods
Treat them to something they wouldn't normally purchase for themselves. Little luxuries such as fancy soaps, candles, and lotions will make their new space feel like a serene retreat.
Gift Cards They'll Actually Use
Because you know big-box staples like Target, Lowe's, Walmart, and the Home Depot are bound to be in their future. For creative points, gather cleaning supplies or small home improvement items in a cute little bundle with the gift card.
Monthly Flower Delivery
Flowers exude a happy, homey vibe -- even among a sea of unpacked boxes. Purchase a flower-of-the-month delivery for a few months so they can look forward to each fresh supply.
