The holiday season heralds a scramble for gift ideas, and according to this new study, practicality is a trending choice. An analysis from the Ace Hardware team shows that in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, home improvement gifts are common, making up 77.35 of every 1,000 gifts given in those states.
There are similar numbers across the country, indicating that Americans value practical gifts that can help them improve their living spaces. In states across the nation, lawn and garden items are the most common home improvement gifts, comprising a quarter of these gifts. Major appliances and building supplies are popular choices, too.Home improvement items like garden tools, new décor, and kitchen appliances make thoughtful gifts that show you care about the recipient’s comfort and convenience. It’s a gift that helps them build a home and lasting memories, rather than a forgettable item made to look good under the Christmas tree.
