Is it just us, or is everyone moving into a new home this year? We’ve been to at least three housewarming parties this summer, and it’s never a good idea to show up empty-handed. Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered. Here are five unique housewarming gifts that will wow any host:

1. Mystic Mug

Who doesn’t love a new coffee mug? This 17 oz porcelain mug, packaged in a heavy duty box and therefore perfect for gifting, will be your host’s new go-to coffe mug every morning.

Shop the mug here.

2. Connecticut Waters: Celebrating Our Coastline and Waterways by Caryn B. Davis

This one won’t just camp out on the coffee table — it’s the book you’ll leave out that guests will actually pick up and read. Written by author and photographer Caryn B. Davis, Connecticut Waters is a tribute to maritime roots both past and present. From boat builders to antique sailing vessels to lighthouses, historic ferries, maritime festivals and beyond, this book takes readers on a nautical journey exploring the many ways Nutmeggers use our lakes, rivers, sounds and shores for industry, education, and recreation, and showcases how these waterways have defined our culture and shaped our heritage as a state.

3. Mystic Cocktail Glass

Craft the perfect New England cocktail or mocktail, like this riff on the Hemingway Daiquiri, “The Old Man and the Sea,” by Imbibe Magazine. This cocktail glass has a most sippable rim, so you can ditch the straw while enjoying.

4. Mystic Bridge Magnet

A little something that won’t break the bank, but will stand out on your host’s fridge. Grab a Mystic magnet for just $5 from Just Mystic’s flagship store downtown, or purchase online.
