Housewarming Party
So my cousin, wife and 4 kids finally moved into they're own house and are having a housewarming party next month. They pretty much have a full house of stuff already...Any one have any cute ideas of what I can get them? I"ve never seen the house, but I'd like to do something cute and not do a gift card if possible.
TIA!!

Re: Housewarming Party
you can drive by and take a picture, enlarge it and frame it with an OUR HOME frame or something like that

Re: Housewarming Party
what about putting together a basket of a theme.....If they like wine, pasta, movies, etc.
You can also go around to some of the local places (if you live close) and get take-out menus.

Re: Housewarming Party
How about something for the garden? My MIL bought me a mini garden flag that I put all different flags on depending on the season. Or garden stakes for holidays. . . .

Re: Housewarming Party
Maybe one of those personalized plaques with the family name & "established" date or a personalized house # plaque with their name on it?

Our cousin did that and it was awesome, we loved it! We also got lots of beautiful planters with nice flowers that we keep in our stoop

Re: Housewarming Party
I do this all the time for people I get an ice bucket, the big ones and I fill it with all outdoor plastic stuff, like plates and cups (the reusable stuff)
Most people never have that stuff, and its such a cute thing when its placed on its side in the bucket!! I usually get the shreaded paper from the dollar store and put it in the bottom and then put all the stuff on top
