Perfect Gifts for Home Decor Lovers

Can you believe that we're in the last month of the year? Decorating for the holidays can be such a hassle that it's easy to leave your gift-buying to be done at the last minute. Now that the holiday season is closing in, we're here to help with all of your décor-themed gift ideas, whether they be for yourself or for someone else in your life! Below are 10 home décor gift ideas to help you cross some things off of your gift-giving lists:

Wall Decor and Shelves

These kinds of gifts are special because they require that you know the style and taste of the recipient. Anyone with a new space who may have recently moved or someone that has some empty walls would benefit from wall décor as a gift this Christmas season. Or, if you know someone who already has a hefty amount of wall décor in their arsenal, buying them some decorative shelving couldn't hurt! Shelving can create the perfect space for your giftee to place decorative items, which will add more personal touch to their home.

Candles 

An oldie but a goodie, candles are some of the most-requested holiday stocking stuffers of all time. Which is good for you, because that means it's hard to go wrong with a candle! Whether the candle you buy is a soothing scent to help ease the recipient's stress, or a holiday-scented candle to help them celebrate, candles are well-loved by most. They have a way of altering the atmosphere of any space for the better, and lucky for you, there are dozens of options.

Throw Pillows and Blankets

The winter season is here, and with it comes the cold weather we've been looking forward to (or dreading) all year. What better gift than cozy pillows or a fluffy throw blanket to help your giftee stay cozy and warm? The best kind of home décor gifts are those that can be re-used, especially those that can be used for multiple seasons, or in multiple rooms. So if you're stumped on a last-minute gift, a fluffy neutral-colored throw blanket or set of throw pillows should do the trick!

Plants, Planters, Plant Shelves, Baskets or Vases

After the pandemic, having indoor plants became the norm for many of us, creating plenty of new plant parents. With this new trend, however, also came the need for a place to put those plants. If you have someone in your life with a green thumb, plant accessories might be the way to go this holiday season. Plant stands and plant-dedicated shelving are very popular items right now, as are different styles of baskets or vases that will add flare to your recipient's green space.

Cutting and Serving Boards

Charcuterie boards have been one of the fastest-growing trends of the year, and alongside that came the need for new kitchen-ware. One of the most popular? Cutting boards! If you have someone on your Christmas list that you know loves to bake or cook, cutting and serving boards are an inexpensive option that they are sure to be thrilled with. If you're familiar with their kitchen, you can even choose an option that matches the rest of their kitchen décor.

Essential Oil Diffuser

Diffusers are not only a great way to enhance your mood, but also a great way to add moisture to the air in your home during these colder and drier winter months. Kill two birds with one stone and grab a gift that offers both aesthetic flare to your décor, as well as purification and relaxation. There are plenty of different diffuser types to choose from. As another option to both candles and diffusers, you could alternatively buy a wax-burner for your giftee in need of relaxation.

Bookcases

For the bookworm in your life, you can never go wrong with giving someone new space to store their books. Whether this be shelved end tables or full bookcases, adding organizational décor is never a mistake, especially if they'll most likely be receiving more books as gifts over the holidays, and will need somewhere to put them! There are plenty of options as far as style, from geometric, to mid-century vintage, to simply modern. For extra consideration, wall-mounted bookshelves add style wherever placed, and might offer further storage options. Bookshelves are an essential piece for any avid reader, and a must-add to your list of gifts!

Doormat

With the holidays comes more foot traffic at your door, and the need to impress with outdoor decor! One of the simplest additions you can make is a holiday doormat - but as far as gift giving, you aren't limited to buying only holiday mats! Doormats can be found in plenty of stores, or online where they can be personalized for your specific needs. Include your giftee's name(s), or a funny saying that applies to them. Especially if your recipient likes to host in their home, you can't go wrong with gifting them with a new doormat this season.

Winter-Themed Flannel Sheets

What better way to into the holiday spirit with a seasonal, holiday-themed duvet set? Perfect for the transition into colder weather, and for those people you know who refer to their bed as their "home within their home." If you opt for sheets that are winter-themed but not necessarily holiday-themed, these sheets can be used throughout the rest of the winter season and for many winter seasons thereafter, making them a gift with longevity.

Mirrors

Mirrors have been one of the hit items of the year, gaining popularity as people expanded upon their homes during the pandemic, wanting to add the illusion of more space without going through with any renovation. And, as a plus, they come in a plethora of different sizes, shapes, and colors, so you're guaranteed to find one that fits the aesthetic of the names still left on your list. Much like candles, mirrors are a no-fail gift option!
