Moving into a new home is a super important life event. If you’ve been invited by a host who’s freshly moved into a home, you best believe you need to show up to the party, or your first visit, with a beautiful (or thoughtful) gift in tow. While a bouquet isn’t necessarily a bad idea, something to go with it is absolutely lovely and will be appreciated. And of course you can order a housewarming gift online, but we’re all for heading out to the shops, making sure your gift is exactly how you imagined it. Here’s a list of the nicest home decor stores you can shop from!
