Thoughtful ideas for housewarming

If building a house or investing in an apartment lifts your spirits, organizing a housewarming function or party is even more livening. There are many reasons for it.

Prominent ones being: the building project is coming to an end; you will be having an efficacious moment in life; you prove to your friends and family that you have succeeded in an insurmountable task; and finally, it is going to be a fantabulous get-together of friends (official and personal) and family members.

Just like you have been waiting for this awesome moment, so will the guests. They scratch their brains about an ideal gift for you. Some muster up the courage to ask you, some want to surprise you and there are a few who want to really give you the things that will make a new home complete. So, what are you most likely to receive? Here area few pointers for both the host and the guests when it comes to “house-warming gifts”.

Wall hangings and paintings are the usual ones and they end up creating clutter because not many of us buy sprawling 4000 sq. ft. plus homes to hang up all of these. None of us want the gift to be kept away in a loft or to be given away to someone. Let us discuss some of the most practical housewarming gifts that will have high utility, which will make the host feel thankful and bring cheer to the home.

The gifts can be of various types, from personalized ones to décor pieces. Some suit a living room or kitchen or dining room or even the bathroom.

Living Room

For those with a green thumb, we can offer indoor plants or hanging plants. Some of the indoor plants are low-maintenance varieties that clear the air and energize the space. These cute little pieces of green are said to freshen the mind and bring more life into the living room.

If the host is close to you and your family, a candid framed picture of everyone will be a great idea. These kinds of personalized gifts build bonds and strengthen relationships. This special memorable photograph will find its special place in the living room alongside other members!

Dining and Kitchen

Artistic cutlery, fine linen, and another exquisite dining setup; are great housewarming gift ideas. They help replicate a satisfactory dining experience. If you want to give a set of table linen, then look for ones with elegant designs and luxurious fabric. Tablecloths, dinner napkins, table runners, and placemats complete the dining arrangement for a great supper, breakfast, and dinner! A set of coasters with handmade printed designs, and more are the most thoughtful gifts for beverage lovers. In fact, they can be kept in every room whenever they take a cup of coffee or tea with them.

Any cutlery set is useful but not in Indian households. They land up as showpieces in glass cupboards as part of a showcase. So, it is best to go in for a stainless steel set as it would help them complete their kitchen space.

For the tech-savvy

Technology cannot be left behind in gifting ideas, these days. An Amazon Echo, Vacuum cleaner, and Alexa are the most preferred and loved gifts as it changes a home’s status to automated. Smart devices are convenient, provide modernity and help save the hassle. They suit the bedrooms too.

Modest ones

Ornate key holders, coffee mugs, coffee makers, pressure cookers, bean mugs, mirrors for the bathroom, soap stands, and other mundane objects will definitely make the house complete. They will all serve as an important addition to a new house. The humble key holder will always remind the host of giver.

Such thoughtful gift ideas with their daily utility will make them memorable all through the year.
