Christmas arrives in just six days – yikes! If you’re still shopping for a new homeowner, here are a few last minute gift ideas they might appreciate.
Something Experience-Based. Think local, and give them an experience gift. A gift card to a local restaurant. Local cooking classes. A gift card to the local movie theatre. Tickets to a play or concert. A foodie tour in the closest big city. Local sport teams jerseys with tickets to a game. Browse the internet to see what’s going on in their area + pair it with their interests = you’ve got a great gift!
Something Personalized. a new doormat, a monogrammed pillow, a plaque with their house number or even an address stamp will tell them you’ve been thinking about them. A classic gift is a “new home” ornament personalized with their address. It will be a welcome addition to the tree – mall kiosks do on-the-spot personalizing for you.
Something Hygge. the Danish word for comfort, warmth, coziness, Hygge is more of a feeling then something tangible. Gift your new homeowner with items that will help them create this cozy feeling, like soft throw pillows, comforters, candles, gourmet hot chocolate with cute mugs; if they have a wood-burning fireplace, get them a cord of wood delivered. You get the idea!
Something Organizational. If you haven’t visited the mothership of organization lately, “The Container Store”, you’re overdue for a shopping trip! There, you can find everything organizational that your new homeowners might need – baskets, bins, drawer organizers, closet organizers, and so on. While you’re thinking organization, get them a magazine subscription to “Real Simple” magazine to help them stay organized all year.**
Something Gardeny. Spring always comes, and you can help them get ready with yard tools, a garden tote, hose, ideas abound at your local nursery or home improvement store. Don’t know exactly what they need? A pair of garden gloves with a gift card to the local nursery or home improvement store will be greatly appreciated!
