New Home & Housewarming Gift FAQs

What do you buy someone for a new home when they already have everything?

If they already have everything they need for their home, we'd avoid buying another vase and go for something they can simply enjoy instead. A good book, chocolate and a few nice bits give them an excuse to stop unpacking and enjoy their new surroundings. Best of all, they don't have to find somewhere to put it.

Can I send a housewarming gift directly to the recipient?

Yes. Enter the recipient’s address as the shipping address at checkout and we’ll send the gift directly to them. Don't worry, we do not include prices or receipts inside our gift hampers.

Can I order a housewarming gift from abroad for someone in Ireland?

Yes. You can order from anywhere and have your housewarming gift shipped directly to an address in Ireland. We’ll pack it here in Waterford and include your handwritten personal message.

How much should I spend on a housewarming gift?

How long is a piece of string? It really depends on how well you know the person and what feels comfortable for you. A small gift can be just as welcome as an expensive one. If it's a close friend or family member buying their first home, you may want to spend a little more to mark the occasion, but the thought and the message you send with it matter much more than the price - or at least it should!

Can I include a message with my new home gift?

Yes. Add your personal message in the cart. If you forget to add it, just reply back to your confirmation email with the message you would like included or Contact us.

Can I choose when my new home gift is shipped?

Yes. You can choose your preferred shipping date in the cart. This is the date we’ll ship your gift, so allow 1-2 working days after this for delivery.

How quickly are housewarming gifts shipped in Ireland?

Orders placed before 3pm Monday to Friday are usually shipped the same working day. Tracked shipping within Ireland typically takes 1–2 working days after dispatch.

Choosing a New Home or Housewarming Gift

Moving into a new home is a big deal, whether it's someones first place or a move somewhere new.

The thing is, by moving day they've usually bought enough stuff for the house already. Furniture, lamps, mugs, towels and probably more storage boxes than any human should own. So a housewarming gift doesn't have to be another thing they need to find a home for.

Something they can simply enjoy could be a much better bet. A good book, chocolate and a few nice bits give them an excuse to stop unpacking, put the kettle on and enjoy the place they've spent so long trying to get into.

Gifts for Someone Buying Their First Home

Buying a first home is a huge milestone and deserves a proper celebration. They've probably spent months talking about mortgages, solicitors, surveys and things nobody finds remotely exciting, so a gift that's actually enjoyable can be very welcome.

We'd usually skip the practical household stuff unless you know exactly what they want. A new home gift hamper with a book, chocolate and a few treats gives them something that's just for them, rather than another job for the house.

Add your own personal message when ordering and we'll handwrite it for you before the gift leaves us.

Housewarming Gifts for Couples

Buying a housewarming gift for a couple can be a bit of a minefield. Unless you've been secretly taking notes on their interiors, trying to match their kitchen or sitting room is probably best avoided.

That's why we like gifts they can actually enjoy together. A hamper gives them something to open once the boxes are down, preferably with the kettle on and absolutely no more flat-pack furniture to assemble.If you'd rather choose the individual gifts yourself, you can also create your own gift box.

If you're heading to a housewarming and aren't quite sure what's expected, our guide to housewarming gift etiquette covers whether you need to bring a gift, how much to spend, when to give it and a few things we'd probably leave on the shelf.
