If you’ve got a friend or family member who recently bought a new home from us, you might be looking to find the perfect Christmas gift to celebrate this amazing milestone. Do you want something thoughtful, practical, and maybe even a little sentimental? Don’t worry—we’ve got you covered with some great gift ideas that will make any new homeowner feel right at home this Christmas!
1. Personalized Welcome Mat
The first thing you see when you walk up to someone’s home is their front door and their welcome mat (or doormat), so make it special! Help your favorite new homeowner create a great first impression with a custom doormat. Whether it’s designed with their last name, a welcoming phrase, or a festive design, it’s a practical yet personal gift that’ll brighten up their entryway and make them smile.
2. Custom Cutting Board or Charcuterie Board
Nothing says “new home vibes” like hosting dinner parties or cozy nights in. A personalized cutting board or charcuterie board is both functional and stylish. You can customize it with their initials, a meaningful date (like the day they closed on their home), or a favorite recipe. They’ll think of you fondly every time they’re prepping meals or serving snacks!
3. “Est” Date Sign to Hang on Their Wall
Next up in our ideas for Christmas housewarming gifts is an “est” date sign to spruce up their home decor. A custom sign with their last name and the day or year they moved in not only helps them in their quest for cute home decor, but it’s a sweet way to commemorate their big move. Find even more sign ideas on Pinterest!
4. Useful or Cozy Housewarming Basket
Why pick just one thing when you can give them a little bit of everything? A themed housewarming basket goes a long way to welcome someone to their new space. You can fill it with kitchen essentials like utensils and dish towels, or go the cozy route with soft blankets, Christmas-scented candles, and gourmet hot chocolate mix. Customize it according to the new homeowners’ interests!
5. New Home Ornament
Are you even a new homeowner if you don’t have a “First Christmas in Our New Home” ornament on your tree? A “New Home” ornament is a sentimental housewarming gift that they’ll treasure for years to come. Add their move-in date or address for an extra special touch.

The Thought Is What Matters Most
No matter which one of these housewarming gifts you choose, the thought behind it is what counts the most, and even wanting to get them a gift shows them you care! Buying a home is a huge milestone, and your gift can be a great way to help them settle in and celebrate their first holiday season in their new space.
