House warming gifts have come along way from baking chocolate chip cookies, bringing tuna casserole and other homemade prepared offerings. These days, the personalized house warming gifts literally embed and punctuate an indelible impression into the cerebral cortex.

Monogrammed towels, cloth napkins and serving utensils exceed the norm. These personalized house warming gifts don’t have an expiration date. Accentuated in the recipient’s initials, it’s the type of present that can only be re-gifted to a person with the same initials.

Another personalized house warming gift that makes one ooh and ah, starts at the front door. Bronze, metal and copper door knockers engraved with the homeowner’s surname or initial make for a stunning, personalized house warming gift.

While monogrammed drinking glasses are a rare find, some major departments stores offer the amenity. Hence, opt for a pair of champagne flutes monogrammed underneath the stem.

In situations where the personalized house warming gift is out of the budget, consider doing it yourself. Arts and crafts stores maintain an inventory of peel –off decals. The stickers come in a variety of colors and font styles. The list below includes items that are suitable for the do-it-yourself personalized housewarming gift idea:

• Planters
• Waste receptacles
• Dart board
• Pillows
• Quilts
• Oven mitten

On cloth items, draw  the outline of each letter and then use a needle and thread to stitch the initials onto the fabric. Please click on house warming gift ideas to read more.
