Being a new homeowner is really exciting, yet incredibly exhausting (especially if you're pregnant like me).

When you're buying housewarming gifts for new homeowners, it's important that you really think about the recipients. Don't give them something only you would like, but something they would find useful for their new home. I know it's difficult to set aside your personal preferences to find the perfect housewarming gifts, so hopefully you can shop from this list of gifts ideas that are always a win with new homeowners.

1. Smart Lighting Kit

Give them the gift of seeing what’s happening at home from anywhere in the world, day or night. The new homeowners can control their entertainment system and lighting from Oomi Touch. Which will allow them to begin automating their new home for the best possible comfort. New homeowners want the best possible security and comfort. This kit is the start to turning a house into a smart home.

And if you want to take your existing “smart” products you already own further, Oomi seamlessly integrates with Philips Hue, Nest Thermostats, and Amazon Alexa.  You can also expand your system by adding other Z-Wave enabled devices to your Oomi smart home.

Every new home, needs a new vacuum. It doesn't matter who you are – when you buy a house, you care more about the upkeep. A safe gift is a vacuum cleaner and a winning gift is a smart vacuum cleaner like the cordless, Wi-Fi Enabled Shark ION ROBOT. This is a gift that will be used regularly and for many families, daily.

3. Memory Foam Mattress

All new homeowners need somewhere to lay their head and this affordable and incredibly comfortable mattress is the perfect housewarming gift! Not only is it an unexpected gift, it's one that will get more use than just about anything else!

NECTAR Sleep is under a year old and has already taken the industry by storm, becoming one of the top six online mattress brands. The brand offers one signature mattress – the NECTAR Sleep – complete with five layers, creating something that is plush and soft while also providing much needed support.

4. Soft Set of Sheets

Find out their color combination in the home, their master bedroom, or a guest room and grab them a nice set of sheets. I don't know a single person who wouldn't be appreciative! I personally love to have at least 3 sets of sheets, per bed so I have a backup when I need it! Plus, it's fun to play around with different colors.

Give your bedding a stylish and comfortable makeover with the Therapedic Sheet Set. Featuring a wrinkle-resistant construction for easy care, TheraFIT® technology and available in a variety of versatile hues, it seamlessly blends with any décor.

5. A Nice Area Rug

The perfect area rug can completely transform a room. Whether and area is carpeted or tiled, an area rug is a must-have for new homeowners.

6. Heated Blanket

It doesn't matter where they live, a heated blanket will be appreciated at some point in their new homes. As a Florida resident, I use my heated blanket a couple weeks out of the year – but in those months, it's my bff. I use it to warm up my tiny body and I even lay it flat for my cats to stay warm! This Therapedic Heated Wrap is basically the best thing ever made for anyone who gets cold easily, like me. Did I mention that it's so soft that I find my cats kneading it on a regular basis? Highly recommended!

Keep yourself warm and cozy while you relaxing in bed or working at your desk with the Therapedic Warm Me Up Electric Heated Wrap. Designed with 4 heat settings, the wrap provides soothing therapeutic warmth wherever you go.

7. Throw Pillows

I personally believe that one can never have enough throw pillows. You can have throw pillows for any and every holiday & occasion. My new homeowner goal is to switch my pillows out with the holidays. It's a fun way to spruce up any space and to give a space some personality. While throw pillows can vary dramatically, Kess In House has a collection like no other. With many colors, designs, and quotes – there's something for everyone and every room. It's the perfect gift for new homeowners!

8. Voice Controlled Device

I'm not entirely sure how I survived without a voice controlled device in my home. It's the best gift my husband ever gave to our new home! Whether you're itching to listen to your favorite song or you simply need to know what the weather will be for the day, a voice controlled home device is great for tech enthusiasts who've just purchased a new home! It's a housewarming gift like no other!

Echo Plus is a hands-free speaker you control with your voice, with a built-in smart home hub. It connects to the Alexa Voice Service to play music, ask questions, make calls, provide information, news, sports scores, weather, and more—instantly. All you have to do is ask.

Echo Plus has 360° room-filling sound powered by Dolby, and can hear you from across the room from any direction. It is always getting smarter as Alexa continues to add additional features. With a built-in smart home hub and simple setup for compatible connected devices, starting your smart home or integrating into your existing system is now easier than ever.

Get it here → Amazon Echo Plus, $149.99

9. Home Chef

When my husband and I moved into our new home, we couldn't find anything for weeks. With him working 12+ hour days and me being 8 months pregnant, we definitely weren't as organized or quick to unpack and other might be. We found ourselves eating fast food more times than not. We didn't have time to shop for groceries! I learned that many families are dealing with the same thing, that's why I highly recommend giving a Home Chef subscription as a housewarming gift for new homeowners! Fresh ingredients and easy recipes will be delivered right to the door of their brand new home. Home Chef takes the guess work out of new recipes and is easy for anyone to cook. You don't have to be a “home chef” to whip up an incredible meal! It's a homeowner's paradise!

10. Amazon Prime

This isn't a typical housewarming gift but it's one that just about anyone would appreciate! Buying a new home means out with the old and in with the new. It's not uncommon to declutter as you're packing for your big move. Every once in awhile, you may throw something out that you didn't necessarily mean to. Another common situation is to find yourself in your brand new home and realizing that you want to go on a decorating spree (like I did). Amazon Prime is the perfect service to use to get everything you need with one or two-day shipping! Amazon Prime also offers exclusive deals for Prime members only!

Get it here → Amazon Prime Membership, $12.99 a month or $99 a year
