Housewarming Gift Idea

Do any of you fab ladies have any ideas for me on what to get a stylish couple as a housewarming gift? I've thought of a plant...and that's all I could come up with. I do not know what their colors are or anything so I'm hesitant to get anything for their decor. This is my husband's friend and I do not know the wife very well, so I'm stumped. Oh, and I don't want to spend that much!

  1. A plant is a nice idea... A bottle of wine if they drink... if it's near the holidays, (which it isn't now, but if it was) an ornament for their tree... a nice smelling candle. Um... Maybe a pretty table runner - something that is seasonal and thus not something that would necessarily clash with their colors, but not be an item they always had to have out. That's all that comes to mind right now.

  3. I like the "new home 2008" ornament idea as ornaments are already out. Also, you can never go wrong with a gift card to maybe Target.

  4. A game! Unless they're not game people. But I love board games and card games and stuff and so a new game is always a fun thing for a new place.

  5. I think giftcards have long since moved past being tacky and cliche so I'd go w/a giftcard. But the plant idea is good, too.

  7. What about some homemade goodies in a cute container/dish they can keep? Or a cute picnic/basket with homemade cookies and a cute dishcloth as the liner? Old school but sometimes a nice treat that you didn't have to make yourself is always awesome.
