We asked Alice Maxwell, REALTOR®, CRS, GRI, ABR, Keller Williams Luxury Agent, and FOP (Friend of Pretty), for her ideas on the perfect housewarming gift.

Like any good businesswoman, Alice is a big proponent of shopping locally–which is an especially nice way to help a new homeowner feel settled in and part of the community. A couple of Alice’s favorite stores in her town are Lou & Company and Bradley’s Market. But since not everyone is lucky enough to live in Tuscaloosa, Alabama (Roll Tide!), here are a couple of Alice-approved gift ideas you might find at local retailers in your area or online:

One of Alice’s favorite luxe gifts is the LAFCO Reed Diffuser in Champagne. The scent lasts up to a year!

Another favorite: Estelle glasses. Alice raves, “They bring a pop of color and serious charm to any table.”

Finally, if you really want to be the best friend the new homeowner has ever had? Host a housewarming party! “Invite neighbors, friends, and family to the new house to celebrate,” Alice says. “There’s no better way to make a house feel like home.”
