Housewarming is a special holiday, because moving to a new home is a certain milestone in the life of any family. They say that two crossings can be equated to one fire. Therefore, people who survived this “natural disaster” deserve a cheerful holiday and good gifts. But what can you bring as a housewarming gift?

Selection rules

The question of what to give for such a wonderful occasion as a housewarming is not easy to decide. Choosing the best option will depend on many factors. Before you buy this or that item, it is worth evaluating the following nuances:

• Housing dimensions. It is clear that if people are moving to a small city apartment, then you should not buy them huge floor vases, ficus in a tub or two-meter teddy bears as gifts. It will be difficult to fit these things in a small area, and throwing away or re-gifting gifts is not accepted. Therefore, by choosing an oversized item, you can put the owners in an awkward position.

• Age and marital status of new residents. Next, you should think about who will live in the new home. Gifts that would appeal to a young family may seem out of luck if the new residents are older spouses. A single woman is unlikely to like a hammer drill, and a single man should not choose a set of multi-colored oven mitts as a gift (although exceptions are possible in this matter).

• Interior style. When choosing various accessories and things to decorate your home, we must not forget about the compatibility of the gift with the overall style of the decor. So, in a classic interior, a modern design made of glass and metal will look alien, more appropriate in a high-tech style setting.

Is it worth giving money?

Many people nowadays do not want to spend time and effort choosing a gift, preferring to give an envelope with money. However, such a gift for housewarming is considered inappropriate. On this wonderful holiday, it is better to give a useful thing.

However, exceptions are possible. For example, if the family is young and not very wealthy (perhaps the wife is on maternity leave, and the apartment was purchased with a mortgage). In this case, it is really better to donate money. And to emphasize the symbolism of the holiday, you can place the bills in a piggy bank in the form of a house (by the way, you can easily build it yourself, from a cardboard box).

Practical gifts

For housewarmings it is customary to give practical gifts, especially if the family is young and starting life practically from scratch. Let's consider gift options:

• Appliances. This option is very successful if the donors know exactly what household “gadgets” the family does not have. You can buy something that is relatively inexpensive, for example, a slow cooker, a yogurt maker, or a blender. Or you can team up with other guests and buy something more expensive - a dishwasher or washing machine, a large TV, etc. But in any case, it is worth calling the other guests in advance so that the new residents do not receive five mixers or coffee grinders as a gift.

• Furniture. The gift is, of course, practical, but it can only be given by close people who know exactly not only the size of the new residents’ apartment, but also how they want to furnish it. But even in this case, the risk of not guessing the color of the sofa is too great. Therefore, it is better to either take the heroes of the occasion with you to the store, or give certificates to a large furniture center.

• Home textiles. This is also a gift with a catch, because the tastes of guests and new residents may not coincide. The donor may really like the carpet or curtains with lambrequins, but the heroes of the occasion will consider this gift an unnecessary dust collector and will be forced to put it away in the closet. A relatively safe option from this category of gifts is cozy blankets; today there are models with sleeves on sale; you can while away the evenings in them, sitting comfortably on the sofa. You can also give bath or kitchen towels; these things are rarely superfluous in the household. You can give your family a set of terry bathrobes, decorating them with embroidery. You can embroider names or family “statuses” – “mom”, “dad”, “son”, etc.

• Dishes. The service is a traditional housewarming gift. But still, before you buy dishes, you should consult with the heroes of the occasion. After all, it may turn out that the family already has a couple of unnecessary sets, donated by relatives for the wedding, gathering dust.

• Lamps. If you are sure that the new residents will like the chosen option, then you can give various lamps - chandeliers, sconces, table lamps. You can find lamps of various designs on sale, so you can choose both a classic model and something that will delight creative lovers.

Symbolic gifts

The above gift options are suitable for a young family who are just starting their own “household”. What to give as a housewarming gift to friends who have everything? In this case, it is worth choosing gifts that symbolize success and good luck.

So, according to Feng Shui, water is a symbol of prosperity. Therefore, you can give friends who are moving to a country house a beautiful aquarium with goldfish. Another option for a symbolic gift is an indoor fountain.

If the new residents have moved into a small apartment, and are also busy people, then instead of a large aquarium, you can give a small tabletop model in which one or several electronic fish “live”. They look quite naturalistic and do not require any care.

Another symbolic housewarming gift is a horseshoe, which must be hung above the front door. Warn your friends that if they hang the souvenir with the “horns” down, the horseshoe will “work” like a talisman, protecting the house from misfortunes and failures. If you tell it the other way around, then the horseshoe will symbolize the cup of abundance and bring prosperity to the house.

To attract wealth to your home, you can give a money tree. This could be a living flower, a crassula, or a souvenir tree, which has coins attached to its branches instead of leaves.

You should not ignore the element of fire - after all, it is a well-known symbol of hearth and comfort. You can give new residents a fireplace - electric or biofuel. Installation of such a model will not require obtaining a permit or building a chimney. Even if new residents don’t believe in omens, these things will become a real decoration of the house.

In a small apartment, a fireplace will certainly be superfluous, so in this case, it is worth choosing gifts that do not take up much space. For example, a beautiful candlestick, and you can make and decorate candles for it yourself.

When looking for an original housewarming gift, you should pay attention to such an option as a painting. Of course, this should not be cheap Chinese consumer goods; it is customary to give works of authorship. It is better to choose a symbolic plot for the picture; let it depict a road going up. Or you can order a family portrait of the new residents, and they can paint it from a photograph.

If you need to congratulate your friends on their housewarming inexpensively and in an original way, then you can buy them a funny figurine of a brownie as a gift. These toys made of fabric and straw are sold in souvenir shops, and if you have certain skills, you can make a funny and cute toy with your own hands.

Gifts “Hand made”

If the donors have talents in some kind of needlework, then you can make exclusive housewarming gifts for friends. These can be embroidered or knitted sofa cushions, tablecloths, napkins. Craftswomen can embroider a beautiful picture that will decorate the interior.

You can give a vase, decorated yourself using the decoupage technique, or build a beautiful “dream catcher”. This thing will need to be hung above the bed; according to legend, it will protect those sleeping from nightmares.

Men who are interested in wood carving can make a beautiful frame for a mirror, shelves for the kitchen on which to place jars of spices, etc., as a gift for new residents.

Those who love creativity can come up with an unusual presentation of the most ordinary items. For example, from terry towels, which are useful in any home, you can assemble a “cake”, decorating it with bows, flowers made of crepe paper or satin ribbons.

Cool gifts

Since a housewarming party is a holiday, it should be fun. To contribute to the fun, you can prepare “cool” housewarming gifts.

You can give a miniature bar made in the shape of a globe or a musical instrument (violin, guitar). A cool and at the same time useful gift is a frying pan for baking pancakes in the form of emoticons with different expressions. This funny breakfast will give you a good boost of positivity in the morning.

Another interesting option is luminous shower heads. They are simply colored or thermosensitive, changing their color depending on the temperature of the supplied water.

You can give a variety of photo frames. In stores you can find very original models, for example, in the form of a cube that rotates on an edge, or a model floating in the air.

By the way, comic housewarming gifts do not have to be material. You can, for example, shoot a funny video greeting in advance. This gift will be especially good if the new residents have friends or relatives who live far away and cannot come for the holiday. It’s worth calling them so that they can record their congratulations on video, and then film their congratulations and edit the film.

You can also prepare a creative gift - compose a song, come up with a cool dance, or arrange a kind and funny prank for the heroes of the occasion.

A gift that carries some meaning can be called symbolic. The name “symbolic” is rather arbitrary, because every culture has its own symbolism, its own.

For example, in Russia almost all gifts are given one at a time, but this is unacceptable, because there it is very important that every thing has a pair.

The superstition of the people or one particular person plays an important role in all this. If someone wants to believe in something that will bring them luck, then it will probably happen. And if you don’t believe in it, then there will be no symbolism in it.

Superstitious nation

As practice shows, despite the fact that the world is moving forward with huge steps, everyone has the right to choose religion, culture, political views, in our country more and more people are becoming superstitious.

Therefore, when choosing a gift for any celebration, you should take into account some signs created by people themselves:

There are a huge number of things in the world and each carries a certain meaning. Therefore, for a person who is very suspicious and insecure, it is better to give only those gifts that you agreed with him in advance or not to give anything at all.

What to give for which holiday?

Moving a little away from the topic of superstitions, I would like to say that for every holiday it is customary to present a certain gift. This is not a requirement, but is most likely a good option.

So, the symbol of a birthday is a cake.
Therefore, if you order an original cake for your loved one (whether a woman or a man), you will not go wrong. It’s good if it reflects the birthday person’s inner world or hobbies.

If the treat is for a child, then it is better to depict the child’s favorite character or toy on it. You can also order a cake with a photo.

On March 8, since it is a spring holiday, it is necessary to give flowers. Better seasonal ones, such as snowdrops or. If you want something more luxurious and expensive, then take a closer look at flowerpots and decorative trees. They also carry a little bit of spring and light.

On February 23, it is customary to give military-themed gifts. If you want to really pleasantly surprise your father or grandfather, then make an offering with your own hands.

It can be anything, give free rein to your imagination. If the gift has already been purchased, then you can make an original card for it.

According to tradition, it is always customary to give a card with beautiful wishes and poems. You can come up with a poem yourself and arrange it on these original postcards:

On a wedding anniversary, a gift is given that corresponds to the wedding date. Each year has its own special name, which, in turn, corresponds to some material. For example, the first year () you need to give things made of chintz, the fourth (linen) - things made of linen, etc.

For the wedding itself, you can buy any thing that will symbolize love. It is customary to receive icons (only in pairs) and a blessing from parents.

It is customary to give things for everyday use. Everything a couple might need in the first months of life in a new home. Depending on the price you are looking at, you can buy from

Close friends and family always try to give gifts with meaning - not only useful and welcome, but also hinting at shared memories.

However, traditional gifts also have their own meaning, which the people have preserved in memory for centuries. In order not to get into trouble, before the upcoming holiday it is worth studying the theory, familiarizing yourself with the signs and meaning of gifts.

Often a young girl gives a boy a lighter or a stylish shirt, not suspecting that she herself is causing a rift in the relationship. Usually these things, given on a ceremonial occasion, lead to separation.

It is believed that a tie is not the best gift; its meaning varies depending on the person who brought it.

If he is his own woman (wife, girlfriend), then she will sit on the neck and tighten the knot tighter. If a tie was presented by a stranger (colleague, acquaintance), there is a belief that she has plans for this man.

She can become a homewrecker and take her husband away from the family. Even if you don’t have such motives, think about whether friendship is worth risking? What if someone from the birthday boy’s entourage believes in omens!

Superstitions ascribe negative meanings to some gifts - knives, wristwatches, towels. These items lead to quarrels, separation, and cooling of relationships.

However, wise people came up with a way to avoid adversity. If the birthday person “buys off” your gift with a ruble, he, in fact, will acquire the item and will not fall under the spell.

You should also give a coin for a pet (even fish or a parrot) - otherwise, according to legend, it will not take root.

Gifted slippers, scarves and lonely mugs carry a negative meaning. But a leather belt is considered against adversity.

There is another interesting meaning of gifts, which directly depends on their quantity. If a guest gives a pair of identical things, he brings harmony, balance and tranquility to the house.

So, having bought one towel, add a second one - and neutralize the “separation” effect. When coming to a housewarming party, the best thing you can do is to give a similar symbolic couple: two sets of bed linen, two photo frames or two vases.

It is considered bad luck to re-gift other people's gifts or things from your home.. Even if they are almost new, they are already saturated with your family energy. By giving it into the wrong hands, you are tearing it away from your own hearth.

A person who has parted with personal values ​​may experience health problems or discord with family.

“Containers” donated without contents are considered unsuccessful.: bags, wallets, piggy banks, briefcases, boxes, cosmetic bags. In general, everything that should get used to the filling in advance.

Therefore, be sure to put a small bill in your purse, a scarf or cream in your bag, a modest piece of jewelry in your box, and, for example, lip gloss in your cosmetic bag.

The meaning of gifts from is future tears and sorrows. It is believed that nymphs or mermaids who live at the bottom of the sea cry with mother-of-pearl pearls. Handkerchiefs have the same sad meaning.

Of the jewelry, only rings given before the wedding have a symbolic meaning: put on a finger before marriage, they lead to separation, albeit not quickly. If you can't wait to please a lady with jewelry, opt for earrings or pendants.

Expensive alcohol as a gift can lead to strong friendships if the bottle was drunk with the giver. Or to the deterioration of the health of the birthday person if it was not uncorked on the same day.

A carpet is considered a successful, albeit bulky, gift - it symbolizes wealth and success. However, before you buy this rather large item, make sure that the birthday person has somewhere to put it.

It is imperative to rely on the meanings of gifts if you are going to visit a very superstitious and well-read person. Nowadays, not everyone gives meaning to signs, but there are also people who truly believe in them.

If they receive from you, say, scissors or a bouquet of dried (artificial) flowers, they may not let you in again, misinterpreting your motives.

Much depends on what signs the birthday boy believes in - Slavic or European. In Rus', for example, yellow flowers were never considered “homewreckers”: on the contrary, they symbolized the sun, joy and gold of coins.

In Europe, wristwatches are not considered an inappropriate gift - they are often presented to those whom they want to constantly remind of themselves.

A superstitious boss, to whom you give an expensive pen for his birthday, will decide that you are planning to “lead his hand,” that is, to manipulate.

And an enlightened friend, having received sunglasses from you, will think that you are imposing your opinion on her, forcing her to look at everything through your eyes.

On the other hand, if your boss and girlfriend are not into omens, you can try it - maybe it will work!

Don't know what to present to a colleague or good friend? Give a symbolic gift. What could it be? Symbolic does not mean useless. Few people enjoy figurines or calendars. So if you can’t come up with one on your own, use the ideas below.

Wallet

Girls really like this symbolic gift. Representatives of the fair sex change their wallets like gloves or, as they say today, like phone cases. Such a gift will be useful, functional, and most importantly - necessary. But remember that a wallet is not given without money. Therefore, you will have to put at least 50 rubles inside. But you can show originality and put inside not a bill, but a souvenir. Today, souvenirs that “live” in a wallet are popular. It could be a raking spoon or a money mouse.

Goodies

You can present sweets or cookies as a symbolic gift. You can make such sweets either with your own hands or buy them in a store. The main thing in such a gift is the packaging. Make it out of cardboard or make a small bag out of paper. You can put a large lollipop or curly gingerbread cookies in it. Or you can buy cookies with wishes. A small sweet gift can be given for any occasion. It is much more pleasant to receive than a trivial chocolate bar.

Soap

Today, symbolic gifts made by hand are popular. If you know how to make soap, then do not hesitate to present the result of your activity to your friends. Close people will appreciate not only your skill, but also your care. After all, no chemicals are added to homemade soap. It consists exclusively of oils and natural additives such as coffee, orange zest or rose petals. If you don't know how to make your own soap, you can always buy it at the store. Such a gift will not only be pleasant, but also utilitarian.

Alcohol

A bottle of champagne can be a symbolic gift for the New Year. This drink is associated with the holiday and will definitely be appropriate on a set table. What champagne to give is up to you. If you don't know the person's preference, go for semi-sweet. If you want to make a small surprise for a man, you should present him with small bottles of strong alcoholic drinks. You can buy several types of whiskey or cognac and pack it in one beautiful box.

Pot with a fresh flower

What a symbolic one should look like Present flowers, but not in the form of a bouquet. A living plant can decorate a colleague’s table or windowsill. These can be small roses, even colored cacti. Choose a flower that matches your friend's personality.

Such a gift can please a person for a long time, especially if it takes root and grows. And to make the gift unique, when you give a flower, give it a name. And then you can from time to time wonder how “Grisha” or “Misha” is doing there.

Money box

What can you give as a symbolic birthday gift? If a person tells you that he always doesn’t have enough money for something, present him with a piggy bank. You can choose the standard version in the form of a pig or in the form of another animal. For example, cats or dogs. Some may find this type of gift old-fashioned. Today, young people keep their savings on a card. Well, what can you say about this? The money from the card is spent, but if you “feed” the pig with 100-ruble notes, you can save it, for example, for a future vacation.

Diary

The ideal symbolic gift for a man is a glider. A diary is one thing that almost no person can do without. Even people who stay at home all day have to plan their activities. And if a person is a businessman and is forced to make important decisions every day, then he will not be able to do without such a thing. The secretary plans only work matters for men. But she won’t remind you that you need to pick up your shoes from repair, or that you should go to the hairdresser next week.

Slippers

A symbolic gift for a man for the New Year is cozy slippers. Representatives of the stronger sex rarely buy such new things for themselves. No, men don’t mind such little money. Rather, it is their natural dislike of shopping, especially clothing stores. Therefore, if you know the size of a man’s feet, you can buy him soft slippers. For example, a model made should have a classic shape. In this case, the man will definitely like your gift.

Creativity kit

This gift will be appreciated by any girl who does needlework in her free time. Which set should you prefer? You can purchase a kit for weaving with beads or for modeling with polymer clay. If your friend embroiders, then give her a complex pattern, if she knits, give her a knitting magazine, and if you don’t know what exactly the girl is into, buy diamond embroidery. Any needlewoman will love gluing rhinestones to canvas. Today, paintings that need to be painted by numbers are popular. If your friend has always dreamed of feeling like an artist, give her this opportunity.

Casket

Cute things always attract women's attention. Therefore, a win-win gift is a box. Girls will especially love a musical item that has some element of interactivity. Such a box will be used not only for its intended purpose, but will also take its rightful place on the cosmetic table. You will be pleased to see that the girl appreciated the gift.

Spices

This is a universal gift. If you know your friend loves to cook, give him some spices. After all, the taste and piquancy of the dish depends on the dried herbs. Good spices in beautiful packages are expensive, and not everyone can buy a set right away. Therefore, you can present the person with something special that is difficult to find on the shelf of the nearest supermarket. It could be saffron, star anise or cilantro. If you know that your friend doesn’t have beautiful spice jars, give them just that. You don't have to buy a big set. You can lay the beginning of a collection, and if a person appreciates the gift, he will buy the missing parts himself.

Keychain

You don't know at all, present the keychain. This thing, oddly enough, constantly needs updating. Key rings get lost, break, get dirty and quickly go out of use. Therefore, you can safely present something of high quality and metal. You may find a keychain with a lighter, knife, or bottle opener built into it. Based on the person’s needs and preferences. If you are giving such a souvenir to a girl, then you should give preference to a small soft toy.
