Home décor is what sets the tone for an interior. What kind of room is this? What do you do in here? What do you want people to feel when they step into this room? You can’t call it a home if it looks more like a lived-in storage container. Obviously, I feel strongly about the importance of good home stylization, but perhaps it’s not your room to decide what to with, and that brings me to my true point here.

Home décor gifts are the best (unless you’re forking over a blank check). Most people are far too afraid of striking out when buying a gift for a hostess or relative, so they go with something safe and reliable like a set of soft sheets or a hefty coffee table book. Those are crowd-pleasers, and you can’t go wrong with a gift of that caliber...but if you really want to wow your giftee and show off your impeccable taste, you’ve got to dream bigger. Here, find 30 home décor items that make damn good gifts.
