What is considered a good housewarming gift?

The recipe to a good housewarming gift comes down to three things; thoughtfulness, practicality and personality. It should be a nice addition to any home, whether that be a household plant to bring life to a space, a bottle of wine to toast the home, or a beautiful coffee table book that brings a little bit of personality to the space. The best gifts don’t need to be expensive, but they do need to be rich with thought and intention, such as a high quality kitchen tool or cosy throw for the living room. Moreover, gifts that align with current home decor trends, like organic materials, modern silhouettes or colour palettes can show that you truly considered their tastes.

What are good luck gifts for a new home?

Why not start the new chapter on a lucky note? When choosing a good luck gift for a new home, items that symbolise prosperity, protection, and happiness are popular choices across many cultures. Edible offerings like bread, salt, honey and olive oil symbolise abundance, flavour and lasting nourishment. Gifting bamboo or a money tree can encourage growth and financial success for the new homeowners, while candles are also commonly given, as their light is believed to chase away negativity and brighten the home’s atmosphere. Feng shui-inspired gifts include items such as mirrors, wind chimes, and crystals, providing either good energy flow or reflect negative energies. Pineapples, owl and elephant figurines and decorative keys are just a few of many cultural traditions that have been said to bring good luck.

What are some traditional housewarming gifts?

Some gestures never go out of style. Bread and salt are among the most time-honoured housewarming gifts, representing hospitality and abundance in many cultures. Candles, too, are often given as symbols of light, warmth and welcome. Additionally, cookware, such as a cast iron skillet or casserole dish, is another thoughtful gift that can seamlessly become part of the home’s daily rhythm.
