Heartwarming gifts are not as hard to find as they seem. As a matter of fact, they are very easy to give. The difficulty comes when we don’t know what to give a new homeowner as a gift on their new house purchase. If they’re your friend or relative, chances are you’ll have an easier time making the purchase. However, if it’s someone you don’t fully know, say a new neighbor, then you may want to see our list of housewarming gifts below.
Serving Tray
Serving trays are great housewarming gifts as they can be used on a regular basis. You can use them to serve drinks, snacks, appetizers, and big plates. If you have a brand new neighbor, chances are they don’t have one of these. Some trays come in solid bamboo wood and can even be pretty enough to leave at the coffee table for convenient décor.
HVAC Repair
Nothing tells your neighbor that you care about them as much as a free repair or maintenance job does. Not to mention a free HVAC repair. Their brand new house may have an air conditioner system that may have been out of use for long months. Perhaps the filters haven’t been changed or the ducts are filled with debris. This is the perfect moment to look up reasons why you should avoid DIY HVAC repair and share them with the new homeowners for their awareness.
“Welcome” Sign
For an obvious welcoming gift, you can gift the new homeowners their own “Welcome” sign. These come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and can be placed on tables, porches, or on walls. You can even make custom signs with their state’s design or other phrases for an even more heartfelt gift.
Personalized Keychain
Personalized keychains are for everyone. You can buy them as souvenirs, and you can buy them as housewarming gifts. A lot of people like to give this token of appreciation to set a friendly tone and relationship. Keychains can be custom-made with their name or favorite sports team. They can even be made from leather or steel. The idea here is to be as thoughtful as possible.
Charcuterie Board Set
Who doesn’t love a good charcuterie night? They bring out the fun in everyone, and when paired with a glass of wine, charcuterie nights can transform into magical events. Your new homeowner friends can serve infinite types of cheeses, hams, and olives to their friends and families for unforgettable gatherings.
Sushi Kit
Sushi kits are on the more unique side of housewarming presents for new homeowners. Not many people are fans of sushi, so be sure your neighbors are at least into the idea. If they’re not fans of raw fish, they can do tempura and even veggie rolls. Be sure to include a sushi recipe with the kit—if it doesn’t already include one—so they can use it as soon as the housewarming party ends.
A Birdhouse
A cute little birdhouse can be the perfect gift for people who love nature or birdwatching. As the name implies, they’re supposed to attract birds, and they can be personalized as well. If you want to go the extra mile and make an impression, you can have the birdhouse custom-made to model the new homeowners’ real house. They’ll surely appreciate that gift for life.
Wine Cooler Bags
Lastly, if they’re wine aficionados or even connoisseurs, they will enjoy a fun gift like a wine cooler bag. These bags can store wine bottles to keep them chilled for hours and can be taken on the go.
As this list concludes, the housewarming present possibilities continue. Don’t be shy when gifting, and always remember to put a little heart in it.
