Here are some creative kitchen-inspired items to consider the next time you're looking for a houseware gift:

1. Fruit Bowl or Banana Holder  

One thing that many people can use in the kitchen is a fruit bowl and/or banana holder. Choose a decorative bowl that not only holds fruits such as apples, pears, and assorted citrus but adds visual interest to a countertop as well.

If you know the recipient's home decor style, keep it in mind when searching for the perfect bowl. For instance, choose a sleek silver or black bowl for a modern look, or a ceramic rooster-printed bowl for a country-inspired touch. 

Not only will a high-quality banana holder look decorative on a counter but it will also keep the soft fruit safe from bruises. There are many different styles from which to choose, such as black wrought iron and rustic wood holders. You can even find a two-in-one fruit bowl and banana holder combo for to save countertop space.  

2. Silicone Utensil Set

A silicone utensil set is another must-have item for every kitchen and will make a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves to bake and cook. Choose a comprehensive set featuring a wide variety of utensils, including different-sized spatulas, ladles, and spoons.

Go with a set made of durable, BPA-free silicone, which can withstand high temperatures. Make sure the utensils are scratch-resistant and also dishwasher-safe for convenience. If you know the recipient's kitchen colors, such as red or blue, pick a set that coordinates with the scheme. If not, stick with neutral black or white.  

Round out the gift with a decorative ceramic crock featuring a personalized design for organizing the utensil set on a countertop. A wood pegboard is another creative idea for storing the set on a kitchen wall.
