Homebodies are happiest in their own spaces—they're perfectly content to spend an evening by the fire curled up with a good book, or to pass a beautiful day in their backyard. If you're shopping for this type of person, why not treat them to goodies that will make every moment at home more special?

That's why we pulled together an array of unexpected gifts for a beautiful, curated abode. Here, you'll find everything from an outdoor fire pit to a floral pleated lampshade. Take the upcoming duvet cover, for instance: Our pick features an all-around snapping mechanism that will change every bedmaker's life. We also found a washable cowhide rug, which will come in handy when muddy pet paws pitter-patter over it, and a luxe candle snuffer that prevents specks of wax scattering onto heirloom tablecloths. And let's not forget the rustic planters that are replicas of the ones Martha has in her own home.

Ultimately, you don't have to be a homebody to appreciate one of these thoughtful, elevated pieces. Keep reading for plenty more unique and practical home gifts that are so stylish, you just might want to keep them for yourself.
