Practical Housewarming & New-Home Gift Ideas in Singapore

Heading to a housewarming, or buying a wedding gift for a couple moving into their first home? The kindest gifts for a new home are the practical ones: the things they will actually use every day. But with so much to choose from, how do you pick the right one without guessing? Here are our favourite practical new-home gift ideas, and the one that can never go wrong.

1. An e-Gift Voucher: let them choose (the no-guess gift)

When you are not sure exactly what they need, a gift voucher is the smartest choice. The new homeowners pick their own kitchen and bathroom pieces, so nothing is duplicated and nothing is re-gifted. Our e-Gift Voucher comes in $100, $300 or $500, is valid for 12 months, and can be used all at once or bit by bit.

2. A stylish tap or mixer

A good basin or kitchen mixer is used countless times a day, and an upgrade from the builder's basic tap is always welcome. Matt and gun metal finishes hide fingerprints and look modern.

3. A rain shower set

Turn an ordinary shower into a daily treat. A quality shower set is a practical little luxury most people will not buy for themselves.

A word on budget

There is no need to overspend. A thoughtful $100 to $300 gift is perfectly generous, and if you would rather they choose, a voucher of any amount is always the safe, welcome option.

The easiest choice of all

If you are short on time or unsure of their taste, an e-Gift Voucher lets them pick exactly what suits their home. Practical, personal, and never re-gifted.
