Housewarming Party Gift...

We are headed to a housewarming party tomorrow for some friends who just purchased their 2nd home.  I want to do something creative...any ideas?

 Thanks!

Re: Housewarming Party Gift...

  • Maybe a bottle of wine with a custom label?
  • 2 great gifts we got at our house warming were a welcome mat and a gift bag with Godiva cookies, imported olive oil, espresso, and some other stuff. 
  • Did they get anything new in their new house...like a game room, theater room, nice backyard?? If they have a new area in the house that they didn't have before, I'd look into getting a gift that could go with that area.
  • I don't know anyone who wouldn't love a nice cozy throw blanket in a neutral color.

    A pretty serving tray with cocktail glasses, appetizer picks or personalized coasters would be great too.

  • A basket with bath or kitchen hand towels would be nice. I always find that I have misplaced all of my hand towels when moving (usually because I use them to wrap items in lol).  Maybe some nice scented soaps. As crazy as it may sound, head over to TJMaxx or Marshalls, hit their decor section. For everything think of double use - i.e. a wine bottle gift box makes an awesome clicker holder as well! Or pick up a decorative basket or lined basket that can be used in the linen closet or bathroom to hold things together.

     Have fun with it!

  • I ended up getting a clear glass chip and dip bowl from Macy's. I had hoped to get some chips and a dip mix, but ran out of time.    It was something I would buy for myself...I think they really enjoyed it!
