5. Game Of Thrones House Stark 26"X78" Sigil Door Banner
Personally, Game of Thrones’s ending left us pretty dissatisfied. That doesn’t mean we aren’t fans of the characters, though! The Game Of Thrones House Stark 26"X78" Sigil Door Banner is the perfect housewarming gift to someone you know who’ll fit right in with the other direwolves from House Stark.
This statement piece is made with 100 percent woven polyester and measures an impressive 25” by 75” (to fit most standard doors).

10. Harry Potter Replica Mirror Of Erised Wall Decor
The Harry Potter Replica Mirror Of Erised Wall Decor is a unique housewarming gift for the biggest Potterhead in your life. Sadly, it doesn’t work as how it does in the Wizarding World — it functions perfectly as a mirror but won’t show you your heart’s true desires (well, maybe if we tried hard enough, it would!).
It measures approximately 25” by 10”, which is far from life-sized, but we like its intricate details and the fact that we can hang it up as a decorative wall mirror. You can also place it on a shelf with your other Harry Potter collectibles.

The Hellraiser 4-Inch Puzzle Box Stash Storage Tin comes in the likeness of the Lament Configuration puzzle box from the movies and is the perfect housewarming present for a huge fan of the movie franchise.

It is said that the Hamsa represents protection. Let your best pal know you have their best interests at heart by giving them the Reversible Sequin 14" Square Pillow, Hamsa Peace Hand/Peace Sign.
The best part about this pillow is its two-in-one design — flip the sequins back and forth to switch between a loving hamsa peace sign and an actual peace sign.
14. Minecraft 13-Inch Fabric Storage Bin Cube Organizers With Lids
Let your best Minecraft buddy know you are supportive of their new home by giving them the Minecraft 13-Inch Fabric Storage Bin Cube Organizers With Lids. Watch them build their own Minecraft-inspired space with these practical storage bins.
