Best gifts for new homeowners

Hannah Lawrence

One of your friends and/or family are new homeowners, it’s very exciting! There are lots of essentials that they’ll be getting for themselves but what can you buy them to congratulate this great news? Here are some of my favourite ideas that I’m sure they’ll absolutely love.

Personalised Portraits

Gifting someone something personalised always means so much more in my opinion. There’s something so special about watching your loved ones open a gift from you and seeing their face as they realise it’s personal to them. My favourite ideas I’ve found for new homeowners are definitely personalised portraits. An illustration of the couple or their new home is something for them to keep with them for a long time and something I’m sure they’d love to display with pride.

Key Chains

I love the idea of gifting them something they’ll use every day and something they may not necessarily buy for themselves! It’s such an exciting moment to get the keys to your new home so why not make them even more beautiful with a lovely keychain? I’ve seen a lot of keychains called Resin flower keychains that are usually the initial of the person’s keys which look so beautiful. An option for a high-tech lover, a leather air tag case would be perfect to make sure they never lose their new keys!

Plants

Plants are such a great gift for a new homeowner. Nowadays, house plants have become as popular as ever. They are definitely a very thoughtful present and always make a home feel calm and tranquil in my opinion. They also look decoratively beautiful and have the potential to become a fun hobby! My advice would be to go for the classic Jade plant also known as The money tree. They’re known for bringing good luck and fortune into a new home and are relatively easy to look after. Not to mention lovely to look at!

Cosy throws

Stereotypically, many people spend their first nights in their new home on a mattress or sofa before buying/ assembling their bed! So why not make their first sleep that bit more comfortable by gifting them a lovely, cosy throw? A beautifully soft chenille throw always looks elegant and homey draped over the sofa for colder nights and it will now have a more sentimental feel as their throw from the first evening in their new home!

Personalised cookies

I absolutely love how creative people are these days. When it comes to baking, sometimes the cookies you get gifted for special occasions look too good to even eat! There are so many fun options. From having your home iced onto a biscuit, their keys or front door. Even giving them simply a flavour you know they love! It’s such a sweet gift both emotionally and literally!
