Finding gifts for the home decor aficionado in your life can often be a bit tricky. Besides the fact that those with a penchant for constantly updating their homes have a tendency to over-shop as it is (how can you compete?), the thought of shopping for stylish furniture or furnishings might immediately seem out of your price range. Thankfully though, there are actually a ton of finds for the home that will impress even the most discerning decor-obsessed people on your list without breaking the bank — and some truly unique options for wall art gifts are among them.

From creating a memorable accent wall to finding the perfect vintage decor pieces, there are a ton of ways to make a a statement in room, but what you hang on your wall just might be one of the most surprisingly affordable and effective avenues to take. You may have already considered scooping up decorative gifts like ceramic bud vases and stylish coasters for the design-lovers on your list, but don't overlook art — whether that means a pre-framed print or a woven wall hanging.

Buying art for someone else doesn't have to mean spending big bucks on a one-of-a-kind painting or museum-quality print. Finding a few out-of-the-box ways to dress up one's walls opens the door to loads of budget-friendly options that also happen to be super cool and creative. Plus, there are a ton of retailers that offer totally reasonably priced prints if you do want to go the traditional route. Ahead, find 11 different options for affordable wall art to give as gifts this year, from the simple and chic to bohemian and whimsical — and none of them will cost you more than $50.

For the boho types on your list, a handmade macrame wall hanging will be the perfect gift to spruce up their space and keep the good vibes flowing. Etsy is a great resource for such finds, since loads of artists and artisans use the site to feature their wares and it's easy to find something in the price point you desire.

Custom framing can be pretty pricey, which is why it's a blessing that Society6 has literally hundreds (if not more) options to choose from for pre-framed prints well under the $50 dollar mark. That way all your gift recipient has to sort out is where to put it.

This metal moon cycle banner is a cool way to make a statement on your wall that's a bit non traditional. And because of this motif, this particular piece is great for your most mystical friend or family member.
