My younger sister recently bought a house less than 20 minutes from us which is SO exciting. The house reminds me a lot of ours but a lot more open and bright. It’s so beautiful. I really want them to let me decorate their laundry room… it is the laundry room of my dreams. Anyways, while I was running errands the other day, I thought about picking up a house-warming gift for them and, 3 gift baskets later, I was leaving Home Centric with all sorts of things. I thought it would be fun to share some house-warming gift basket ideas that you can create for a friend or family member, depending on whether they’re a homebody, into cooking, a gardener, or more! Home Centric had THE cutest items for all of these.
Gift Basket Theme Ideas:
Homebody
Gardener
Foodie/Chef/Griller
DIY-er (tools)
Neat Freak (cleaning supplies/tools)




Below are some ideas of items to place within the baskets. I like to always keep in mind, “is this item going to be useful in their new home or just add clutter?”. It’s also a good idea to keep things as neutral as possible since their home style may evolve once they get settled.
