60 Gifts for the Home That Are Sure to Spark Joy for Anyone on Your Shopping List

Shopping for your friend with little ones? A cozy, sherpa-lined chair will look as good as it feels in their playroom, while toys like Baghera’s ride-on toy car or Little Nook’s dollhouse will keep their tiny tots well entertained. For the mid-century modernist with a liking for quirky designs and bold colors, find Cold Picnic’s geometric rug and striped oven mitts from Dusen Dusen. We bet you also know of someone on your list who identifies with the ‘coastal grandmother’ aesthetic—a woven basket from Altuzarra, ZDG’s porcelain dinnerware, and a set of printed napkins will help them lean into their obsession even more. For the man in your life, upgrade his interiors with a fringed throw blanket from Off-White or handcrafted wine stoppers from Brunello Cucinelli. And finally, for the minimalist and maximalist in your life, there are fabulous options that suit both sides, like a cashmere cushion from Christopher Kane or a decorative accent chair from House of Hackney, respectively.

Below, 60 gifts for the home that will not only spark joy this holiday season, but beyond.

The Maximalist

For that more-is-more person in your life, these maximalist gifts for the home are special enough to catch any eye. Think colorful cookware like this taffy-colored dutch oven from Great Jones and Polspotten’s porcelain tea set to an accent chair from House of Hackney. There are more decorative objects like a Jonathan Adler marbled bow to printed salt and pepper grinders from Dusen Dusen. Whatever gift you choose, even your most maximalist recipient will be impressed.

The Minimalist

On the opposite side of the spectrum, there are simple yet seriously chic, gifts that will satisfy even the most minimally minded. Christopher Kane’s ‘More Joy’ cashmere pillow will stand alone on any couch, while the Citizenry’s wooden side table freshens up any space. Kitchen items like a marble cutting board or a set of black and white grinders are pieces you’ll want to keep as a mainstay. While their approach may be edited and pared down, any self-proclaimed minimalist would be thrilled to receive these gifts for the home.

The Grand Millennial

So you or someone you know became obsessed with the ‘coastal grandmother’ aesthetic this summer? Fuel their obsession by way of a rattan beach chair or knit blanket from Khaite and transport them straight to the Hamptons. Other delicacies include floral printed napkins, a scalloped jute rug, wooden cutting boards, woven baskets, and more.

The Mid-Century Modernist

For the mid-century modernist with a liking for quirky designs and bold colors, Cold Picnic’s geometric rug and a splatter painted cutting board from Fredericks & Mae are sure to spark their interest. Go a few steps further and give them a piece of new furniture like the lamp they’ve always wanted from Hannah Simpson or Sophie Collé’s ‘Splat Table’.

The Young Family

Shopping for your friend with little ones? Upgrade their playroom with a cozy, sherpa-lined armchair and a straw wall fixture. For their tiny tots, new toys are always welcome, like a ride-on toy car from Baghera or Little Nook’s dollhouse. For a new baby, encourage lasting memories with Lucy Darling’s baby book.

The Bachelor Pad

For the man in your life, upgrade his interiors this holiday season with the help from this throw blanket from Off-White, a leather and brass magazine rack from Soho Home, or a decorative tray from The Lacquer Company. Diptyque’s scented candle will also go a long way.
