A few thoughtful pointers

Room by room, wish by wish

Unpack before you choose

Live in the space for a little while if you can. The missing pieces become clearer once you know where everything goes.

Measure the details

Record shelf dimensions, bedding sizes and colours in the descriptions. For appliances or smart-home accessories, check compatibility before adding a link.

Make room for modest gifts

A plant, a tea towel or a pantry treat can be as welcome as a bigger upgrade. Let guests choose what feels comfortable.

Your housewarming list, explained

What belongs on a first-home gift list?

Start with practical things you do not own yet, then add a few personal touches. Kitchen basics, linen and useful storage are good places to think about.

Can we make a list if we are renting?

Of course. Focus on things you can take with you, such as lamps, cookware and freestanding storage.

Should we include expensive home items?

Include them only if you would use them, alongside smaller wishes. Bonumi does not split payments or collect contributions; arrange any shared gift directly.

When should we share the housewarming list?

Share it with your invitation or when people ask what to bring. Keep the welcome message relaxed and make it clear that their company comes first.
