What gift should I give to my classmate when he moves into a new house?
QuestionerQuestioner:03-16 09:23
My college classmate bought a new house last year and invited me to have a house-warming party next week. In my hometown, we usually buy fresh meat for this kind of occasion, but it seems a bit too traditional and inappropriate for us young people. What did you give if you have had the same experience? Can anyone tell me what gift is good for moving into a new house?
Best answer

Giving gifts when moving to a new house is a matter of some particulars. Generally, some auspicious Feng Shui ornaments are given as congratulatory gifts. In addition, if you have a close relationship with your classmates, you don’t have to be too particular. It is also a good choice to choose economical and practical small household appliances. In addition, some environmentally friendly and ornamental green plants and flowers or other home decorations are also things that young people like.

Feng Shui ornaments:Giving gifts when moving to a new house must be festive and have good meanings. Chinese people pay attention to auspiciousness in everything. The most traditional way of moving is to give some auspicious ornaments that help improve the Feng Shui of the home. For example, the charcoal-carved Fu character ornament recommended to you below has auspicious meanings and means to send blessings and luck. Secondly, the charcoal-carved ornaments can absorb harmful gases in the air, which is healthy and environmentally friendly and is most suitable for classmates to place in their new homes.

  • I can give you some advice based on my own experience. When I moved, my friends all gave me some decorative ornaments. We had already finished decorating our house, but the decorative ornaments we received not only did not match the decoration style of our house, but also had no place to put them. So I learned from my own experience and lessons. In the future, when I encounter such a situation, it is better to give practical gifts.

  • Since you are classmates, you might as well ask your classmates if there is anything missing at home, and then give them what is missing. This kind of thoughtful gift and the random gift will definitely make a world of difference to your classmates.

  • Now many people give red envelopes directly. When moving to a new house, they usually give "600" or "800". It sounds good.

  • Buy a soybean milk machine, and give a pressure cooker, microwave oven or other home appliances as a gift. But before buying, it is best to confirm whether the classmate's family already has it. If so, don't give it as a gift. By the way, I think if the budget is high, you can give an air purifier as a gift. This is what a new house needs most.
