With so many gift ideas floating around, it is now easier than ever to help a new neighbor or new homeowner feel welcome to the neighborhood or to congratulate them on their new home. The perfect gift can also make it easier to settle in, be it custom art to fill the empty walls or a small gift that gets the new homeowner on their journey to building lasting memories in their new home. The gifts for new homeowners below are great for helping new homeowners turn their houses into comfortable, personalized homes.
Gifts for New Homeowners
An Indoor Herb Garden
Plants have been shown to make the home feel more relaxing and welcoming which is why offering an indoor herb garden as a gift is such an amazing idea. To reduce the burden of caring for the garden, you can choose self-watering mason jars to house the plants. All the garden needs is some seeds, some water, time, and some patience. Once they grow, your neighbor will then be able to add them to some tasty dishes and who knows; you may even get to try some!
Personalized Welcome Mat
While it is easy to find a welcome mat, many of the options out there are generic and boring. Why not go a step further and get your new neighbors a personalized welcome mat? The mat can have their name (a great way to introduce themselves) and a nice, welcoming message for all those who come over to say hi. For an extra touch, you can also buy handmade welcome mats, most of which have come down in price over the past few years.
Elements Candle Gift Set
The elements candle gift set from Tom Dixon includes wax candles with the scents of the four elements including air, water, earth, and fire. They are great for making the bathroom feel more luxurious or for placing around the house as decor items. The pack of four element candles is part of a collection of home accessories from Tom Dixon available at SSENSE. You can also find other high-end decor items from Tom Dixon and other creators on the retailer’s website that can be packaged as gifts for your new neighbors.
Magnetic Knife Storage
A simple knife storage strip is a great addition to any kitchen. It makes a great gift because very few people give gifts for the kitchen. The good news is that you can personalize the magnetic knife storage strip with the new family’s name to make the gift even more special. These magnetic strips are also easy to install, leaving very little damage to the new walls.
Thoughtful Gifts for New Homeowners
Giving your new neighbors a gift is a great way to introduce yourself and to welcome them to the neighborhood. It is also a good way to get new homeowners well on their way to making their home a lot more comfortable and welcoming to all those who come visiting.
