Are you on the hunt for the perfect moving in gift?

Buying a house is a major achievement and it is nice to celebrate the occasion with a gift.

Here are just some of the options you could consider:

Hamper

A hamper is a great gift for a new homeowner. If you are short on time, you can buy a pre-packed hamper, full of treats for them to enjoy during the first few weeks living in their new home.

If you have more time on your hands, you can buy a hamper and fill it yourself, giving it a more personal touch. This could include all their favourite things, for example a box of camomile tea, a packet of biscuits and a mug.

If you aren’t sure what their favourites are, you could go down the more practical route and include some cleaning supplies and cupboard essentials. Buying a home is expensive so gifting necessities is always going to be appreciated.

Another reason why a hamper works so well is that is can be used for storage once they have used up everything inside.

Personalised print

Now that your giftee is a homeowner, they have the luxury of being able to hang prints, something that that you don’t always have when renting. Therefore, a personalised print makes a fantastic moving in gift.

Opting for something personalised makes it extra special as it is unique to them. This could include a picture of the both of you, or an illustration of their new home including the date they moved in.

If you are struggling to find something, check out Etsy where you’re bound to find something they’ll like whilst supporting a small business.

Subscription service

There are now more subscription services than ever before, and many of them make brilliant new home gifts. These are the gifts that keep on giving, and can be tailored to their interests and your budget.

Just a few possibilities include meal kits, coffee subscription, flower delivery, and craft gin samples. Signing them up for a subscription means they will have something new to enjoy monthly in their new home.

This is a great option if you don’t feel comfortable or confident buying them something permanent for their home such as interior décor.

Scents

Wanting your home is smell nice is a universal experience, meaning something scent related can make the perfect gift for a new homeowner. From scented candles to wax melts to electric oil diffusers, there is something to suit every personality and budget.

If you aren’t sure on the types of fragrances they like, opt for something fresh and natural smelling such as a clean cotton scent.

Cookbook

If you’re buying for someone who enjoys cooking, or equally someone who wants to improve their cooking skills, a recipe book could be a good gift. Consider the type of food they like to eat, as well as their current skill level and buy something that matches both.

For a more personal touch, you could compile your favourite recipes and gift them these in a homemade recipe book.
