Housewarming gifts

Plants, candles, welcome mats, serving boards and a small tool kit: housewarming gifts for a new house or apartment, carried by lots of US stores. Every price is checked against the others.

Tip: Ask whether they rent or own. Renters usually can't paint or drill, so choose things that don't need installing.

Useful in the first weeks

The first weeks in a new place are full of small gaps: no doormat, one cutting board, nothing on the walls. A welcome mat, a basic tool kit, a cutting board or new glassware fills one of them.

Plants for beginners

Snake plants, pothos and succulents cope with irregular watering and lower light. If they have pets, check that the plant is safe for cats and dogs, because several common houseplants, pothos and snake plants among them, are not.

Apartments and rentals

In a rental, skip anything that needs mounting. Freestanding frames, plug-in diffusers and candles add warmth without holes in the wall.

Moving week

In the first days, food helps more than decor: a basket of snacks, good coffee for the first mornings, or dinner brought over on a night when the kitchen is still in boxes.

If you're bringing it

A gift you carry to a housewarming party should be easy to hand over: a plant, a candle or something to eat or drink that evening. Larger items are better shipped to the new address.

How we pick

We rank by how many shops stock each item — a far better signal of a genuinely good gift than a headline discount, which is the easiest number to fake. Every price is the lowest we can find across the shops that sell it, and we send you straight to that shop. We never take payment to rank something higher.
