In the words of our favorite girl from Kansas, there’s no place like home…and there’s no better feeling than getting someone that perfect gift for their home. These days people are spending a lot more time at home than they ever imagined. After it became clear that the pandemic was going to last a lot longer than we all thought, furniture sales and real estate prices skyrocketed, as people searched for ways to make their homes more, well, homey. As we all gear up for another winter, gifting someone with something that will make their home feel cozy, inviting, or beautiful is just what the doctor ordered.
Even if you don’t have a good sense of your gift recipient’s taste and style, we’ve compiled a list of thoughtful gifts that would fit into any home. Whether you’re tightening the purse strings or springing for a splurge gift, we’ve got something for every budget. Whether you’re searching for something for the brother-in-law who loves kitchenware, the friend who is always searching for her new favorite vase, or the sister who can’t get enough throw pillows, you’ll find something on here to satisfy everyone on your list.
Are you looking for a cheese board that could double as a work of art? We’ve got you. Want some minimalist glass canisters that would make any countertop look perfectly tidy and were actually recommended directly by the ladies of The Home Edit? Your wish is our command. While we’ve chosen our favorite colors for a number of these items, many of them come in multiple colors and styles so make sure to check them all out. And don’t feel too bad if you end up gifting a few items on this list to yourself…we’re all eyeing that Le Creuset skillet, and we wouldn’t say no to that bright Nutribullet blender either!
