DIY Tool Box Jar
Fill a jar with small tools the new homeowner might need but hasn’t had time to buy yet. Some suggestions include: a measuring tape, hammer, nails, picture hangers, a small screwdriver set, extension cords, a level, or kitchen towels. The options are endless, as jars come in many sizes. Once the jar is empty, it can be reused for storing laundry detergent, dry pasta, or anything else!
Bottle Opener
Who doesn’t love a good bottle opener? It’s one of those items people sometimes lose or forget to buy until they have a bottle of wine they can’t open!
Customized Christmas Ornament
This is especially perfect if your friends or loved ones have just moved around the holiday season. Make their first Christmas in their new home extra special with a unique ornament for their tree.
Shower-Proof Bluetooth Speaker
Who doesn’t love some music in the bathroom or anywhere else in the house? A waterproof Bluetooth speaker is a great gift for music lovers.
