Moving into a new home requires a lot of time and energy invested by the new owners, but also the final satisfaction of a fulfilled dream, to have a place to enjoy with the family. Throughout the stressful and tiring period in which they have been preoccupied with the arrangement of their home, the choice of furniture or the cleanliness at the end, now is the time for a little relaxation. How can all this effort be rewarded if not through a new home party, with family and friends?
And now comes the question: “What gift do we buy for the new house?”
We all know how to deal with the dilemma of finding the perfect gift, putting yourself in the hands of the hosts, and thinking about what you would like to receive from your new home. In complete absence of inspiration, we sometimes have to ask them why they need their home. We did all this just to avoid that moment, a little awkward, when the hosts have to pretend to be delighted with your totally unspoiled gift, and you do not know how to change the subject so you can get away faster. However, no matter how hard we strive, there is still the risk of mistaking our choice.
To prevent such unpleasant moments, we have prepared some useful recommendations when choosing a new home gift.
1. It is advisable to take into account the degree of kinship or the type of relationship between us and the hosts. If for parents and children we can choose from the category of symbolic gifts or even a more substantial gift, such as small furniture, household appliances or other practical items for home, in the case of close friends, gifts of sentimental value, maybe customized and funny, memories over time of your friendship.
2. If we have the advantage of knowing the preferences and passions of the hosts then we can choose a gift that is related to their hobbies and thus make them a beautiful and appreciated surprise.
3. Another option would be the common gift offered by several guests, if they already know each other. Even if we are in the mood for ideas, it is very likely that other friends are more inspired or have access to some extremely valuable information.
4. Interior decorations are often a good idea for a new home gift, but provided we have previously informed us of the style and color of their home. A painting or wall clock, a photo support, or even a bold choice, a dreamcatcher, are just a few ideas of possible gifts.
5. Plants always invigorate the atmosphere of a home and have a beneficial role for health. Iedera, gerbera, ficus are indoor plants with a role in air purification that regulates humidity. However, if we want to give our friends a gift of plant pots, it is advisable to check that they are not allergic.
6. We can also think about symbol gifts. A noble wine in a beautiful package is always a good idea. There are various assortments of which we can certainly choose something suitable for the tastes of each host.
7. Attention to live gifts. Yes, you have heard well. Dogs, cats, parrots or hamsters do not offer a new home gift. Such decisions are taken for granted only by those directly involved in the subsequent care of the pet.
8. Also, no personal care products are part of the recommended gift for such parties. Even the name of the gift, “the new house”, gives us enough clues to avoid this category of products.
With the hope that these tips helped you and helped you choose a gift that the hosts really appreciate and use, we wish you all the beautiful party!
