To build a home takes time. That's for sure. So when your loved one uproots from one home to another, no matter how much furniture and furnishings they may already have, instinct tells you not to arrive empty handed. From something as simple as a bottle of red wine or an always classic casserole dish, the gift should be a marker of new beginnings, a hopeful token of what's to come. The trick is to navigate the line between comfort and clutter—what do they need? Is there anything they want but would never buy for themself? What about the practical but less glamorous requirements like a set of tea towels or a wine knife? If all else fails, a bouquet of flowers never goes astray...

From the practical to the comforting pieces your loved one would never indulge in themself, below find 20 housewarming gift ideas that are bound to leave an impression.
