And just like that the holiday season has arrived! If you’ve got a new homeowner on your list this year, then I’ve got some suggestions for you. From the practical to sentimental, I hope that this list gives you some inspiration for a gift for new homeowners in your life that will fit into your budget.
Cordless Electric Kettle
Cuisinart’s Cordless Electric Kettle is a great gift for a tea loving new homeowner. This version comes preset temperatures for the type of tea or French press coffee you prefer. Plus this cordless version is great to take on the go (think vacation homes, camping, tailgating). We found ours very handy on a camping trip a couple of months ago. There are many other offering online, so you can select one that matches with the new homeowner’s style and decor.
Custom Home Map
Words Works Prints customize a map of the new homeowner’s address and turns it into a piece of art for the walls. There are many different versions of these maps out there for all budgets and if you are really crafty, you could even create it yourself on a graphic design program like Canva!
Also consider other customized gifts for new homeowners like an ornament for the Christmas tree, a personalized welcome mat, or water color portrait of the new home.
Coffee Subscription
With a Trade Coffee subscription, you can give a personalized gift for new homeowners of their favorite morning beverage. Trade allows you to customize the coffee that is delivered to the home, so you know that the recipient will enjoy the type gifted.
Custom Charcuterie Board
For the homeowner that loves to entertain a charcuterie board filled with cheeses, unique crackers, and meats is always a great idea. Add a little extra to the gift by presenting it on a personalized board like the ones from Copper Fox Company. In additional to local stores like the Culpeper Cheese Company, you can find seasonal items at Aldi that are perfect for creating the charcuterie board.
Ladder
While it may not be as pretty as a charcuterie board, a sturdy ladder is always a great gift for new homeowners. While having a taller one is great to change the batteries on smoke detectors, hanging curtain rods, and putting paint on walls, another great choice for gifting is a smaller step ladder that is useful indoors for reaching the top shelves of cabinets or for hanging pictures on a wall.
Home Tool Sets
You can never have enough tools, right? These home tool sets are helpful for building a basic collection of tools that one might need around the home. Add in some vice grips, a stud finder, fire extinguisher, and some buckets if you’d like. A wet/dry vac or cordless battery powered drill also make a great gift for new homeowners.
Local Store and Restaurant Gift Cards
If you are giving a gift to someone who is new to the area, then why not share some of your favorite local stores and restaurants with them through gift cards? Besides supporting local businesses, these gifts will help encourage your recipient to explore the local area.
Board Games
Great for family gatherings, board games can be a great gift for new homeowners. Some of our favorites include Catan, Ticket to Ride, Unstable Unicorns, and Azul. During the black Friday sales, you can usually find one of this games at a great discount.
