(There is a far easier way to do this. Click Places, then drag & drop "Home Folder" to the panel.)
To add the shortcut in Ubuntu to the panel, right click anywhere on the Panel and click on Add to Panel…
In the Add to Panel window, click on Custom Application Launcher
In the Create Launcher window, select and enter the following information shown in the screen shot below, and substitute the path to your Home directory in the Command: field in the following syntax:
nautilus /home/yourusername (path to home directory is case sensitive)
Clicking the Browse… will allow you to select any icon that will be displayed on the Panel.
Click OK and then close the Add to Panel window. You should now have an icon on the Panel, and with one click your Home directory will open.
If you want, you can add shortcuts to other directories that you access frequently using the nautilus command.
