Home is really where the heart resides, where you feel comfortable (or threatened), loved (or alone). This kind of gift can make a huge difference in someone’s life.
But before I go into gift ideas I would like to share a personal story.
My Mum died of breast cancer when I was 23. Home base dissolved shortly after that.
All the years since then I found myself wanting to create a home that I not only felt was my home, but anyone who came to visit would feel comfortable. That my home projected a welcoming feeling and a give people a sense of serene.
At the end of last year we were informed that the house we were renting was being put up for sale. A month later it was sold. It was a very difficult time for me as my home means everything to me. We luckily found a new home to rent that fit perfectly.
The set up of the house was incredibly important to me. We spent many hours moving things around to get the right feel. We added items, moved items, until we could stand back and say “yes”.
The other day the owners of the home we rent came to visit and they said, often, how much lovelier it was from what we’ve done since moving in.
Home is where the heart is… it is indeed.
So don’t be shy when it comes to giving someone a home present, such as a pillow, a lamp, a throw, candles, etc. Or giving outdoor items like a patio items, etc. Anything to make your loved ones home feel better during this pandemic, when we are spending so much time at home, is a loving gift.
Indoor Self Watering Planter
This is the indoor planter that waters itself. This hydroponic planter uses a porous soil-free growing medium free of soil-borne pests that absorbs water while providing an aerated environment for a plant’s roots. Its water reservoir and silent built-in electric pump eliminates over watering and ensures that optimal nutrients (included and applied with pipette that comes with the planter) are stored in the water for efficient root uptake.

It has a 24-hour automatic timer that turns the unit on/off at pre-set times and a remote control that acts as a thermostat. The unit also functions as a dehumidifier, and its unique design recycles condensation within the machine, saving one from constantly having to empty a drip tray. The flexible exhaust hose vents out of most standard windows without obscuring the view outdoors like other window units. Its cabinet maneuvers easily on four casters or can be installed in sliding windows and sliding glass doors
The Aquarium Coffee Table
This is the glass-topped coffee table that contains a 25-gallon aquarium. Its acrylic sides provide clear viewing of the interior, while the removable 36″ sq. tabletop of 1/4″-thick beveled tempered glass is large and sturdy enough to accommodate a sculpture and hardcover books.

This is the exterior drop box that provides a concealed spot for postal workers and package carriers to deliver your packages.

This is the liquid fuel portable fireplace that rests on any stable surface and provides the color, charm, and comfort of a wood-burning fire without smoke, smells, or sparks. Using recycled liquid ethanol fuel that emits only water vapor and carbon dioxide, the clean-burning, portable fireplace yields a bright yellow, orange, and red 7″-high flame that flickers without fumes, making it suitable for indoor or outdoor use. Generating up to 8,500 BTUs per hour (depending upon damper setting), it heats a 325′ sq. area, making it ideal for intimate gatherings.

This is the electric kitchen utensil that quickly and easily peels apples, potatoes, and other fruits and vegetables.
