Housewarming Wishlist — Share What Your New Home Needs
Most housewarming gifts are candles and wine because guests don't know what's missing. A short list tells them what would actually help you settle in.
First flat — Dan & Robin
We got the keys in March and it's still fairly empty. Come and see it. If you'd like to bring something, this is what would actually get used.
Good to know
- Kitchen things are the biggest gap; storage is small so nothing huge.
- Plants: the flat is bright in the morning, dim in the afternoon.
Please avoid
- No ornaments or wall art — we want to choose those slowly.
- Nothing over 40 cm tall.

How to make this one work
1Say what the space is like
Light, storage, and size limits help people choose plants and furniture that fit.
2Start with the kitchen
It's usually the biggest gap in a first home and the easiest thing to buy for.
3Keep decor off the list
Most people want to choose art and ornaments themselves — say so kindly.
4Add a couple of cheap essentials
A doormat or a set of towels is a genuinely welcome small gift.
Start with the kitchen — it's usually the biggest gap in a first home — then add towels, storage, a doormat, a plant suited to your light levels, and one bigger thing you're saving toward. A line about the space itself helps: how much light, how much storage, what won't fit through the door.
If you'd rather choose art and ornaments yourself, say so kindly in the notes. Guests open the private link without an account and reserve in a tap, so the blender only arrives once. Group ideas with a target are available on the paid plans and work as pledges between guests; HintGifts doesn't handle the money.
