These charcuterie boards are becoming so popular that you can’t go wrong. Not only do they come with a great cheese board, most come with little utensils that the new homeowner can use for multiple foods.

4. Glassware

one of the best and most common housewarming gifts is glass cups

Don’t just give a set of plain old cups, no no. Do it right and gift them a luxury set of glassware that they can use to entertain their guest for years to come.

5. Keurig Coffee Machine

best christmas gift, best housewarming gift, you can't go wrong with a keurig

Find out if your homeowner is a coffee drinker? Chances are they could go for saving money right now, give them the gift of having fine coffee at home with a Keurig machine.

6. Decanter Set

If your homeowner friend is not into coffee maybe you know they like things a little harder (on the rocks). This decanter set is nice, looks elegant and makes your friends know you can have fun and still be sophisticated (or trashed whatever right). you just need to supply the alcohol.

7. Small Plant With Vase

Keeping it practical is what this section is all about. Having a small plant that doesn’t need a lot of attention is the way to go because you never know what a persons green thumb (or lack of ) is like

8. Iron Skillet

This specific iron skillet can also be grouped with the luxury items that are up next. But I had to add it with the practical items because everyone deserves and needs an iron skillet.

9. Knife Set

Kitchen items are always a go to staple when it comes to housewarming gifts. Make sure you give a knife set like this one to really show you care.

Stainless steal and long lasting knife set.

10. Wooden Spoons

housewarming gift ideas like wooden spoon set

No more gifting plastics please. Give your friends and loved ones and neighbors some wooden utensils (like these) and see how many times they invite you over for dinner (trust).

11. Cookware Set

I think you knew this was coming up next. This cookware set has so maaaaaaany 5 star reviews I had to add it to this list of housewarming items.

It’s all stainless steal cookware too.

Luxury Christmas Gifts

12. Watch Box

Do you know if they have a lot of accessories. Sometimes people who seem to have everything still need a little of something. That something is a watch box.

Not only is it a luxury gift to give, it also helps them keep something valuable in place and organized.

13. Wine Rack

15. Golf Set

luxury housewarming gift that is a little extra but a nice touch a set of golf clubs

If you are going to go with a golf set please make sure you know the person actually golfs (or intends to start). My husband would literally marry anyone who gifted him a golf set lol.

16. Kitchen Aid Mixer

A kitchen aid mixer is a staple in every kitchen, however they’re more on the pricey side, so gifting one would give you brownie points literally.

17. Glass Tupperware
