Signing a new lease on an apartment is a cause for celebration. Moving homes or living alone in a brand new flat is no easy feat. It’s a remarkable milestone that demands a few good housewarming gifts to go along with it. 

If a family member or someone dear to you has just recently become a new resident, thoughtful housewarming gift ideas can remind them of just how far they’ve come in life.

Housewarming parties are always a fun affair. You get to tour a new flat or house and participate in the celebration, wining and dining until the day ends. Housewarming gifts are tried and tested, but you can make yours even more special with some unique choices.

Below are 8 housewarming gift ideas that are personal, thoughtful, and, most of all, practical. From the classic rose in a jar to a bouquet-wine bundle, here are gifts you’ll almost want to keep for yourself.

1. Flower Box

Flowers are the go-to housewarming gifts. They bring life to an otherwise lifeless space. Flowers add colour and vibrance amidst the piles and piles of unopened moving boxes and wrapped decor. 

But as housewarming gifts, flowers tend to just blend in a sea of presents. Make your gift stand out with a gift of exquisite flower boxes. Our Boîte De Fleur Lumiere flower box is a popping arrangement of Cappuccino Roses paired with bright orange tulips. Coming in a ribbon-tied box, this housewarming present is a sure eye-catcher. 

2. Flowers And Resin Earrings

Moving into a new place might be an exciting — and always unfamiliar — change in scenery. But once the festivities are over, your friend or loved one is again preoccupied with the move. 

Unless the new resident is an avid interior decorator, mapping out the furniture and decor for a new home can be tedious. Make this task less of a burden with a unique gift of resin earrings.

Windflower Florist has collaborated with Yanflowervalley to curate a beautiful bundle of fresh flowers with matching accessories. Each bundle is a surprise because we pick the blooms fresh from the day’s markets. There are, however, 3 different styles of resin earrings to choose from. Pick out a pair that matches the recipient’s style — they’ll surely love it. 

3. Ice Cream And Bouquet Of Flowers

Unwrapping items, unpacking wardrobes, setting up shelves — these are all on a new mover’s to-do list. Sounds exhausting, doesn’t it? Thankfully, it’s nothing that a cold bowl of ice cream can’t remedy.

Give your friend a chance to cool down at any time of day with an ice cream and flower bouquet housewarming bundle. The Sweet Scoop Bundle is every bit wonderful as it is refreshing. Each pint is a delectable treat topped with yummy yuzu chrysanthemum bits. 

Of course, what’s a housewarming gift without any flowers? Select a beautifully-preserved bouquet in blue or yellow, fitting for any home. 

4. Cake And Flowers

Another one for those with a sweet tooth, a treat of cake and flowers is always welcomed. Chocolate lovers will appreciate this gift bundle. For something rich, the Dark Chocolate Ganache is sure to impress with its ultra-soft, chocolate butter cake, layered with dark chocolate crispearls.

For something a bit on the lighter side, the Rose Lychee Cake is an absolute stunner. The rose butter sponge cake topped with a wreath of lychee is nothing short of refreshing. 

Whether it’s decadent chocolate or a light and fluffy lychee cake, you can’t go wrong with this housewarming gift. Complement your gift with a hand bouquet of pink roses to make it extra special. Get a sweet bundle now through Windflower Florist’s flower and cake delivery in Singapore.

5. Bottle Of White Wine And Flowers

What’s a housewarming party without any booze? Now’s the best time to send in your well wishes with a bottle of white wine and complementary flowers.

The Boite De Fleur Prosecco bundle includes fresh roses in warm pastel hues, stored in an exquisite gift box. We have paired a refreshing bottle of Prosecco with this bouquet. Get any housewarming celebration started with this bundle!

6. Potted Orchids

Help your loved one or friend decorate their new home with a classic gift of potted orchids. Like many houseplants, orchids offer many benefits. Not only do they spruce up a space, but they also have stress-relieving properties.

Our potted phalaenopsis or moth orchid can make the dullest of spaces even brighter. This low-maintenance plant doesn’t need much to survive. It can be watered once a week while limiting its exposure to direct sunlight.

With its compact size, this moth orchid plant can be stored anywhere — from home office desks to cosy living room nooks. Buy this gift 5 days in advance from our online flower store in time for your housewarming event. 

7. Roses In A Jar

Dried roses are another housewarming gift idea you should try. Contrary to popular belief, roses aren’t perfect for only romantic occasions. They’re versatile and appropriate for almost any event, even housewarming.

Our rustic collection of dried roses in a jar is simply stunning. It features an assortment of dried roses, a pinecone, and select filler flowers, all neatly arranged in a vintage glass jar. Order a bundle through our roses delivery in Singapore.

8. Bouquet Of Hydrangeas

If you want to keep your gift simple yet meaningful, try giving a bouquet of hydrangeas. Hydrangeas offer a nice change of pace from the usual rose, not to mention these tropical flowers are absolutely stunning.

Check out our Sweet Romance bouquet, featuring an elegant, blue hydrangea complemented with premium roses. You could also choose from several add-ons to go with this housewarming gift. Our scented soy candles and selection of fine wine will do the trick.
