Buying a gift in honor of someone’s housewarming event is always a thoughtful gesture, but sometimes it can be tricky to decide what to buy. When you’re not sure what the style of their home is, you might not want to get something that doesn’t fit, and you also might not want to buy something that they will never use and will sit in the corner of a closet forever. Here are some tips on great gifts that people will actually be excited to get.

Petite Pauline Candle Holder
These candleholders are just trendy enough but also minimalistic enough that they won’t ever look garish or horribly dated. They are also very subtle, so they won’t demand a lot of attention when placed in a room. They are hand blown and beautiful on their own, and truly make a statement with a taper as well.
