Let's set the scene: You're headed to a housewarming party for one of your closest friends or family members and you're stressed. It's not that you're late for the event, or even that you're showing up empty-handed. No, your predicament is that you've got a thoroughly unoriginal housewarming gift in tow, and you're faced with the possibility of revealing to your host that you're not as brilliant and stylish as she thought you were. Relax. This list of the best housewarming gift ideas is here to help!

You'll find both thoughtful and useful housewarming gifts like simple-but-inspired gifts for home cooks and rarely-gifted home accessories. Whether you're looking to be crowned "Best Guest," need a Christmas present for someone who recently moved, or just want to share a thoughtful find with a best friend, there's at least one thing on our list that'll get you there. Among our favorites is a vintage floral tea kettle that'll help them get their daily caffeine fix, a set of baking salts featuring dessert-ready flavors, and soap made from wine (yes, really!).

You'll also find tons of personalized housewarming gift ideas, like a custom door knocker, a pretty painting of their new place, a cute door mat, and plenty of cozy gifts like a cashmere throw blanket and a tabletop fire pit. No matter what you choose, rest assured you'll be the first to be invited back for many more gatherings to come!
