housewarming gift

Moved-in celebration token

A housewarming gift is something given to people who have just moved into a new home.

Traditional choices include wine, plants, candles, or household items.

The gift typically marks the occasion and helps make the new space feel welcoming: We brought a nice bottle of wine as a housewarming gift.
