Five Thoughtful Housewarming Gifts

We have been happily living in our new house for almost a month. Since moving in, several things  have popped up I wish we had. I decided to do a little round up of these items as I think they would make perfect housewarming gifts.

{One} Address Stamp. This is number one on the list for a reason. I love handwritten letters and feel like I don't send them enough. When we moved from Wilmington I was sad to have to say goodbye to our beautiful address stamp we used for every piece of mail. Now a new permeant address means a new stamp. I love the calligraphy on this one.


{Two} TLC in a Jar. One of the not so fun aspects of movings is that something always gets misplaced. For me it seems to be little odds and ends like tissues and chapstick that I have no idea what box they made it into. I love the idea of having a jar full of necessities to have on hand when you can't find things. 

{Three} Personalized Door Mat. Our little doormat has seen better days. I would love for our front door to get a makeover with a personalized door mat. 


{Four} Fig Tree. I am dying to add a live plans to hour new home. Fiddle Leaf Fig Trees are very popular right now and would look perfect in just about any room. 100% better than the fake ficus with christmas lights Joe had in college. 


{Five} Neighborhood Info. Our neighbors have been extra welcoming and helpful. With so many new neighbors, it is hard to remember everyones name! I love the pineapple theme of this gift. Maybe I should switch this around and give one to each of our neighbors with our contact info.

  5. Such a good list! I remember thinking the same thing about the address stamp when we moved...you have NOTHING (no stamp, no cheap freebie labels, nothing) when you first move and there's something about a stamp that says "We are HERE!"

  6. I love the personalized address stamps, and the script on the one in the picture is beautiful! I hate having little odds and ends of things floating around the house too, so that jar of random things sounds awesome!

  10. Great list! I think the TLC jar is my favorite. When my sister moved to a new city, I made her a Box-O-Comfort that was filled with comforting, familiar things to make her feel more at home.
