Budget-friendly housewarming gift ideas in Singapore: Under $30

1. Coffee Maker

Having a coffee machine in my home has always been a dream of mine. It’s not super expensive, and with subscription plans like Nespresso, it’s really accessible. Still, I can’t help but feel hesitant about spending the money on one, always worried about “wasting” it. But if someone gave me one as a housewarming gift, I’d definitely appreciate it. I wouldn’t even mind the Cornell 2 Cups Coffee Maker CCME250TVL — it comes with two cups, which is perfect since I can brew a cup for myself and one for my future husband.

2. Personalised Cutting Board

A cutting board may not be the fanciest gift, but it’s incredibly practical. What makes it special for me, though, is when it’s personalised. I love giving and receiving gifts that have a personal touch because they feel more thoughtful and meaningful. That’s why I’d choose Misty Daydream’s Customized Chopping Board. Not only would it be useful in the kitchen, but the custom engraving and design would give it that extra personal value, making it a truly memorable housewarming gift idea.

3. Aromatherapy Diffuser

I’m definitely not one to turn down anything that smells amazing, and one of my absolute favorites is the IUIGA Aromatherapy Reed Diffuser. If I had to recommend a scent, it would be Ocean Mist. Its fresh, breezy notes of sea salt and crisp ocean air really capture the calming essence of a coastal breeze. It’s great for creating a relaxing atmosphere, especially when winding down for a good night’s sleep. Plus, it’s always handy to have a few extras on hand for when you’re in the mood to indulge!

4. Skincare Organiser

Another item on my housewarming gift wishlist is a cosmetic organiser, and the JAERSENT Cosmetics Storage Box would be the perfect choice. As someone who loves keeping things tidy and having a space for everything, a good organiser is a game-changer. It not only helps to keep my skincare and makeup products in order but also makes it so much easier to access everything — no more digging through drawers or cabinets to find what I need! With all the different skincare routines and beauty essentials I have, having a dedicated space for them would make my daily routine feel more streamlined and enjoyable.

5. Homeware Designed By Locals, For Locals

What makes us true-blue Singaporeans? It’s the little things that are part of our culture – like the vibrant hawker centres, the iconic Ya Kun Kaya toast, and all the food we hold dear. Honestly, I sometimes wish I could hug my favourite local dishes. Well, now I can – and you can too – with Nom Singapore Iconic Kueh & Food Cushions! They’re soft, adorable, and just as comforting as that warm kaya toast in the morning. Looking for a unique and heartfelt housewarming gift idea in Singapore? These cushions are the perfect way to bring a touch of local flavour and warmth to anyone’s home!

6. Hooga Scented Candle

I’ve always loved how scented candles can create such a relaxing atmosphere, especially during a soothing bubble bath. They not only smell amazing but also add a touch of beauty to any space. That’s why I’d consider giving the Hooga Scented Candle as a housewarming gift. With over a dozen different scents, it’s easy to find the perfect one for my friends. If the host enjoys floral and fruity fragrances, the Freesia and Litchi scent would be a great choice — it’s light, refreshing, and just a little sweet. For friends who prefer clean, spring-like scents, I’d go for the Spring Sakura Tea. It’s delicate and calming, evoking the peaceful feeling of cherry blossoms in Japan.

7. Ceramic Non-Stick Cookware

For foodies, quality cookware sets always make an exceptional housewarming gift. As a fellow foodie, I know how important it is to have reliable kitchen tools, which is why I’d recommend the Russell Taylors Ceramic Non-Stick Kitchen Cookware Set. Not only does it make cooking a joy, but cleaning is also a breeze — no more scrubbing away stuck-on food! Plus, it’s compatible with all types of cooktops, making it versatile and practical for any kitchen. And the best part?

For my friends with more atas taste, the LHSG Wine Rack Shelf would make a perfect housewarming gift. I mean, why not help them display their wine collection in style? It’s not just practical; it’s a statement piece that says, “I have good taste… and good wine.” Depending on the size, it holds anywhere from 4 to 12 bottles. Made from natural bamboo, it’s sleek and modern, fitting into any home without being too in-your-face. Trust me, your friends will appreciate having a chic place to show off their wine — because who doesn’t want to look like they know what they’re doing when it comes to wine?

Weavve Weighted Blankets are amazing when it comes to comfort, and I’m obsessed with mine. Unlike traditional blankets filled with cotton or down, these are packed with materials like glass beads, giving them the perfect weight. The way it evenly distributes across the body provides a deep touch pressure that feels like a gentle, soothing hug — it’s perfect for winding down after a long day. If your friend is moving out for the first time and being away from their parents, I honestly think this blanket could be exactly what they need to feel safe, comforted, and relaxed in their new space. 

13. Folding Mahjong Table

Automatic mahjong tables can be pretty pricey, so I’m not bold enough to ask my friends for one. But I think a Folding Mahjong Table could be a great alternative! It comes with four drawers to store your mahjong chips and can be folded away for easy storage. After all, mahjong is a game loved by both the young and old! And while you’re at it, why not add a bit of fun and good fortune with some quirky mahjong gifts to bring in even more luck from the mahjong gods?

Air purifiers are quickly becoming a must-have in most households, and I happen to be one of the few who don’t have one yet. So, it’d make for a perfect housewarming gift idea! With so many great options on the market, I’ve got my eye on the Sterra Breeze Air Purifier. It’s equipped with the same HEPA filter that hospitals use to decontaminate their rooms, removing up to 99.97% of airborne particles. Not only does it deliver highly efficient fresh air, but it also operates as silently as a whisper, so it won’t disturb the peace of the home.

So, why not help upgrade your friend’s home with the Xiaomi Robot Vacuum E10? It does both wet and dry cleaning, and it intelligently maps out the layout of the house for efficient cleaning. Plus, it’s super easy to control via an app, so your friend can have the house cleaned while they’re out and about.

If you’re really stuck and dealing with picky recipients, this is my last resort — just get vouchers!

Alternatively, you can always go with a red packet (anything between $88 and $188) to keep it simple and give a little extra luck.
