If you just bought...

[pinkoeony]

Your first house with your boyfriend, what gift would you want?

Not an appliance or knives etc.

What's can I buy?!!!!

Budget £50...

Honestly a lovely bouquet delivered to my new house with a lovely card. I think it's the perfect gift!

What sort of age?

What kind of people are they?

Hipster?
Party animals?
Corporate career types?
Nerds (not meant in a disparaging sense, nothing wrong with being a nerd!)?
Animal lovers?
Drinkers?

Ermmmm 25-ish, quirky, dog loving (don't have their own), arty, creative, a bit "out there"

Fancy bedding

A dog door stop. When DH first moved we used all sorts to keep a door open before realising door stops exist 🙈

Draught excluder shaped like a daschund?

We bought my colleague vouchers for somewhere online that you can buy original art from. They went down really well.

Just about to head for bed but I always use notonthehighstreet.com for quirky presents.

I recently got a friend a slate cheese board that says 'Hello....is it Brie you're looking for?' which she loved but cheese boards possibly a bit mature for 25?

House plants are having a huge revival amongst 20s and up now...how about something like...

A posh cafetiere like this beauty or a coffee dripper set.

Balti dishes. Or a wok?

Cast iron doormat. Last a lifetime, will never date.
I have two, always looking for different ones to dot around the place.

Agree plants! I think these are cute: www.bloomandwild.com/send-flowers/tagonly/plants

Or something like B&Q vouchers for paint etc?

If you're thinking plant, try www.thepresenttree.co.uk. They do small trees, picked to order and all have different meanings. Just bought one for Db and SIL for their new home to wish good fortune and happiness. They both loved it and it's something they can keep (provided they keep it alive). They were delighted to receive it and show it off in their new garden.

a lovely set of screwdrivers, that's what dd is getting if her and the bf buy a place....he was very envious of the set we had in the porch and it's not a thing you can buy when someone still lives with their parents! :o

Vouchers, for a hardware store or ikea so I can choose myself something useful!

have to say when i bought my house i prefered vouchers over an actual gift
id bought a lot of stuff beforehand and vouchers mainly next were very appreciated as i got stuff in the sale

Huge beautiful white pure cotton bath sheets

Voucher for a couple of hours of deep clean/gardening

Proper Champagne

I agree with tools, my Dad bought me a hammer drill when I bought my first house. Also garden tools. I would rather choose my own art and home decor.

Could you find a nice print off say King and McGaw. Great choices, nicely framed. You'd have to know what art they like though.

I would go for a voucher for Thrills of the Emporium. They sell stuff which could be considered a bit quirky and they’re a small business rather than a big soulless corporation that sells the same stuff to everyone.

A lovely olive wood chopping board, it's nice to have something to keep for a long time.
