Easy Housewarming Gift

May 22, 2013 By Meegan 3 Comments

Hello my friends!!  Happy Wednesday!! And Happy Housewarming!!

I don’t know about you, but I have a lot of friends who are moving.  It is sad to see a friend move.  And I don’t like good-byes.  But I do like to give them house warming gifts.  Nothing fancy, and not necessary, but easy and fun.

Easy Housewarming Gift

This is a sample of what we gave to our kids right after Christmas.  They were moving into an apartment, sight unseen.  I thought they might want to clean up after it was cleaned.  Make sense??  I like to have my own type of clean-not someone else’s.  (I know, a little OCD.)

I found a basket and filled it with cleaning items such as:

disinfectant wipes

bleach spray

liquid dish soap

glass cleaner

sponges

magic erasers

recipe cards

and a scented candle

Since it is their first home I thought it would be nice to also give them their first Nativity and a Christmas ornament.

Nothing fancy, but fun for a new home.  They told me they ended up using all of it.  I was glad I made an easy housewarming gift for them.

I tied everything up with cellophane, tulle and ribbon.  It looks makes cleaning look a little more fun that way, don’t you think?

I am sure you have a few ideas of your own.  What would you put in your easy housewarming gift?

This easy housewarming gift is also great for a new college student.

I have been busy working on our dining set-it is going to be so fun to share it with you!!  I can’t wait to finish it.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I am off to finish the dining set…

    Great idea!! I usually give either kitchen or bathroom stuff for housewarming gifts. I love your idea of cleaning supplies. Everyone always cleans when they move. Thanks for the great idea!!
