By Liz Kennedy

Buying a home is one of the most stressful things I have ever done in my life. The endless paperwork, renovations, physical labor and million things that go wrong are enough to drive a person mad. One of the last things on my mind when moving into my new place was buying extra nice-to-haves to make it feel like home. So I was incredibly thankful when friends and family brought me thoughtful housewarming gifts that gave my home life.

And while showing up to your friend’s new home with wine or cookies is always a nice gift, sometimes you want to give something a little extra special — something that will make the person think of you every time they look at the it. These housewarming gifts are fun, beautiful, and functional (you may even want to buy them for yourself!) and will be sure to make you everyone’s favorite guest.
