Can anybody advise me what to give as a housewarming gift?

The gift would be for my female cousin who is in her mid 40s and has recently moved from a farm to a large house.


She is married and has a young family aged between 6 - 18. (4 children )


Any suggestions would be welcome!!


Thankyou allCan anybody advise me what to give as a housewarming gift?
If she has a hobby, like scrapbooking, gardening, photography, cooking, etc... I will get something related but can be used in the house. Like a pretty frame for the family, or a little basket of flower seeds and pretty containers, or a pretty cake mold (Nordicware kind)...





If not, here are some other suggestions:





-jar of hand-made candle


-a set of new glassware for her guests


-a pretty vase with fresh-cut flowers


-a favorite home store gift card


-a good luck symbol (horse shoe, clover shaped decoration to hang on her front door)


-a new pretty coffee machine (if you want to be a spender, and if they drink coffee)


-a set of barware or bbq goods (if they entertain alot)Can anybody advise me what to give as a housewarming gift?

Some pig feet with a little splash of hot sauce will warm them right up.

A nice house plant
My brother and sis in law just got a house, and mentioned they want rose bushes. Listen to them and see if they say they are wanting to get anything new for house or yard.





In my family, we all love rose bushes.....so it's the ';norm'; gift to give.
