1. Half Baked Harvest Super Simple Cookbook by Tieghan Gerard
see on Amazon
This is one of my favorite cookbooks I own! It has so many recipes that are approachable for someone who’s learning how to cook, but it also has delicious go to meals for someone who loves to cook but also needs to make dinner every night. I love that it makes cooking feel easy without having to sacrifice form and flavor.
For more cookbooks and coffee table books, check out this blog post! I have a whole list of cookbooks and coffee table books that make great gifts. This cookbook is definitely one of my all time favorites, though.
2. Glass Carafe
see on Amazon
This is a very affordable gift that looks high end and feels fancy. I love giving a beautiful yet functional gift, and this carafe definitely is that. It’s something that you might not think to buy for yourself, but it elevates the everyday. It’s also perfect for hosting.
3. Azure Tile Serving Platter, Oval
see on anthropologie
A serving platter is a classic housewarming gift, and this one is so gorgeous. I love the pattern and beautiful blues. This is something that anyone can appreciate receiving as a gift, because you can always use another serving platter. If you’re not sure what to get, this is a great choice.
4. Generva Table Runner
see on Anthropologie
Anyone who loves hosting dinner parties or having people over for brunch will appreciate this table runner. It’s simple and it adds an elegant touch to a dining table for having people over. It’s quite affordable as well, and it’s quite neutral โ so if you aren’t sure of someone’s sense of style, this is a very safe choice.
5. Kitchen Aid Stand Mixer
see on Amazon
This is a more expensive gift, but if you want to treat someone it’s a great idea. Having a stand mixer is perfect for anyone who loves baking or cooking. This gift is especially good for new homeowners or someone who doesn’t have all of their kitchen appliances already.
6. Wooden Charcuterie Board
see on Amazon
A simple, round, wooden charcuterie board is a great housewarming gift. It’s so useful and it looks nice, too. This one is from Amazon and it’s super affordable. I like giving something like this as a gift because even if someone already has a charcuterie board, it’s really nice to have a few to choose from.
7. Leva Jacquard Dish Towels, Set of 3
see on Anthropologie
A cute set of dish towels is such an easy and affordable gift. It’s my go to if I don’t know what to bring. Especially if you’re not sure if gifts are expected at the party or not, getting a cute set of dish towels and a bouquet of flowers goes a long way. They’ll always be appreciated!
8. Cold Brew Coffee Maker
see on Amazon
If you’re gifting to someone who loves iced coffee, this is the perfect gift!!! I am obsessed with this cold brew coffee maker. It looks so chic and elegant, and it literally makes the best cold brew. I have a really similar one from this same brand and I LOVE IT. Smooth cold brew is the best, and this will make the best cold brew you’ve had.
9. Breville Espresso Machine
see on Amazon
An espresso machine like this is an extremely generous gift, but if you want to spoil the person you love at their housewarming party, this is an amazing gift. If they love coffee, they will use this all the time and be floored that you were so kind as to gift it to them. This is something that people even ask for on their wedding registry, so this is a great gift for new homeowners or someone who’s making a big life transition.
10. Chamberlain Coffee Ground Coffee, Social Dog Blend and Family Blend
see on Amazon
These bags of ground coffee contain some of the most delicious coffee I’ve tried. If you know that the person you’re gifting this to is a fan of Emma Chamberlain, that’s an added bonus because this is her coffee brand. But even if they have no idea who Emma Chamberlain is, this coffee is so smooth and delicious. It’s one of my favorite brands of coffee that I’ve tried, and it’s become such an easy gift for coffee drinkers.
11. Michelle Pasta Bowl
see on anthropologie
A beautiful bowl is always a good gift. I love these from Anthropologie because they have beautiful colors and will bring warmth to any home. Whether you get one bowl or a set, these make for a great housewarming gift.
12. Recycled Aviva Highball Glasses, Set of 4
see on anthropologie
Let’s play a game called “what your gift says about you” โ gifting these highball glasses says that you love to have fun, and you also care about the environment. Haha! But seriously, I love that these are recycled and they have such a quirky and unique look. They’re a very fun gift.
13. Nemo Glass Vase
see on Anthropologie
How unique is this vase? It’s so pretty. And I think it’s so nice to get a bouquet of flowers to go with a vase when you’re gifting to someone. Especially as a housewarming gift, it’s always so nice to get fresh flowers and a beautiful vase like this.
14. Voluspa Santiago Huckleberry Candle
see on Amazon
Everyone loves a good smelling home, so candles are a great housewarming gift! Especially if you want to get something small to accompany a larger gift, or you just need a little something to bring to a gathering. This candle gets so many amazing reviews on Amazon, and I love this brand. It’s elegant looking and has a special feel to it.
15. Greer Decanter
see on Anthropologie
This is such an elegant piece of glassware, and it’s actually affordable. Given its high ratings, I think it is safe to say that this makes for a great gift. Especially for a housewarming party, this feels like a really special and thoughtful gift to bring.
16. Cheese Knives for a Charcuterie Board
see on Amazon
I can’t believe how inexpensive these are. Since they are super affordable, so they would pair well with another gift! Cheese knives are the type of thing that not everyone thinks to buy for themselves, but when you make a charcuterie board they’re really nice to have.
17. Dessert Person by Claire Saffitz
see on Amazon
With the amount that I’ve shared this cookbook, you’d think that I either am getting paid or have a personal relationship with Claire Saffitz. Neither are true, unless you count the very one sided relationship of watching every YouTube video she posts ever. Lol. I just think this is such a fun gift! There are some really great recipes in there, and anyone who loves dessert will have an appreciation for this book, even if it’s just the title.
I hope that you found something on this list of gift ideas for a housewarming party that’s just what you needed! It’s amazing how much people appreciate little gifts like this. Taking a little bit of time to pick out a gift is always so worth it.
