A Botanical Wallflower Fragrance Plug: $14.95

When you're searching for a housewarming gift on a budget, you simply can't go wrong shopping at Bath & Body Works. While their beloved wallflower plugs may be small, these delightful scent diffusers certainly pack a punch (especially when paired with a wallflower refill in a scent that screams home). While there are plenty of options to choose from, we love the gold detailing and sleek botanical leaves of this one for a housewarming gift that goes above and beyond without doing the same to your budget.
