A new house, new walls and that indispensable smell of fresh paint.
The furniture is in place, the boxes are unpacked – and you're standing at the door with… well, what exactly?
A bottle of wine is safe. A plant is too. But let's be honest: half of those gifts end up in a corner within a month. Time for something with more character – a gift that lives on in memories, not in moving boxes.
1. A birdhouse with a touch of design
For those who finally have a garden or balcony, a birdhouse is a little piece of happiness.
Choose one that not only delights the birds but also the eye. Like the bamboo birdhouses from Point-Virgule , made of natural fibers in soft hues. They bring life, color, and a touch of tranquility to your outdoor space—just what a new home needs.

2. Art to make yourself
Housewarmings don't always have to be practical. Sometimes it's nice to give something that has a little love put into it. Assembli 's 3D paper animals, like the colorful Green Birdwing butterfly, are small works of art that you can assemble yourself. A moment of peace, a touch of pride, and then a lasting eye-catcher on the wall.
Besides this Assembli Paper Green Birdwing Butterfly, there are many other fun DIY gifts in the shop!
3. Humor and style at the table
Design should definitely bring a smile. Fluid Market 's ceramic vases do just that – recognizable by their playful shapes, like a milk or yogurt carton. Fill them with flowers or simply display them on the table: they bring lightness and style to any room. A gift that literally sets the tone for cozy evenings.
4. Mood makers in every corner
A new home needs light—and ambiance. The minimalist table lamps from It's About RoMi , with their clean lines and warm glow, instantly complete any space. Think of a compact lamp on a dresser or desk: functional, timeless, and personal.

5. A touch of tradition with character
Some gifts tell stories. Heinen Delfts Blauw wall plates have been doing just that for generations, but with a modern twist. With prints of animals, flowers, or graphic patterns, they're perfect for those who appreciate design with a touch of humor. A gift that's sure to spark conversation on the wall.

A gift that grows with their new home
The best housewarming gift is not the most expensive or the biggest, but the most thoughtful.
A gift that shows you've truly considered who lives there and for whom you bought it. That's what makes it special. Whether it's playful, sustainable, or simply beautiful, it says: I know you, and I want this for you.
