Here are <strong>15 decor gifts they will remember<\/strong>, from \u20ac15 to a family heirloom in the making. \ud83c\udfe1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where does the French expression \u00ab\u00a0pendre la cr\u00e9maill\u00e8re\u00a0\u00bb come from?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In French, throwing a housewarming party is called \u00ab\u00a0pendre la cr\u00e9maill\u00e8re\u00a0\u00bb, hanging the trammel. In the Middle Ages, the cooking pot hung over the fire from a cr\u00e9maill\u00e8re, a notched iron rod fixed in the fireplace. Hanging it meant the move was over and you could finally cook for your friends. Today the expression means the party you throw to christen a new home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you choose a housewarming gift?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">People who have just moved are short of time, not things. The right gift does not clutter their home: it finds its place straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Think about the first month:<\/strong> the walls are bare, the kitchen is half equipped, the evenings are getting cooler.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Stay close to their style:<\/strong> look at their old home or their photos before choosing a decor piece.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Tell their story:<\/strong> a place, a city, a region that matters to them means more than a trendy object.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Choose quality over quantity:<\/strong> one beautiful piece that will last twenty years beats three gadgets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which housewarming gift fits your budget?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Budget<\/th><th>The idea that works<\/th><th>For whom<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Under \u20ac20<\/td><td>A poster of their new city in A5 or A4<\/td><td>Friends, colleagues<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\u20ac20 to \u20ac50<\/td><td>An A3 poster and its frame, or an aperitif kit<\/td><td>Close friends<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>\u20ac50 to \u20ac100<\/td><td>Table knives, a piece of handmade faience<\/td><td>Family, a group gift<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Over \u20ac100<\/td><td>A cast iron casserole dish, a wool throw<\/td><td>A joint gift from friends<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15 housewarming gift ideas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To dress their walls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A poster of their new city<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They have just moved to Marseille, Annecy or Paris? Give them a poster of their new city. It is often the first thing people hang in a new home, and a way of wishing them happiness there. In the hallway, it welcomes guests as soon as they walk in.<\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"rt-posters-reco\">\n                            <h2 class=\"rt-posters-reco__title\">For a new life in the city<\/h2>\n                        <div class=\"rt-posters-reco__grid\">\n                                                        <article class=\"rt-posters-reco__item\">\n                                                    <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/79-affiche-paris-la-tour-eiffel-au-lever-du-jour.html\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                                <img\n                                    class=\"rt-posters-reco__image\"\n                                    src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/801-medium_default\/affiche-paris-la-tour-eiffel-au-lever-du-jour.webp\"\n                                    alt=\"Affiche Paris - La Tour Eiffel au lever du jour\"\n                                    loading=\"lazy\"\n                                    decoding=\"async\"\n                                >\n                            <\/a>\n                            <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__product-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/79-affiche-paris-la-tour-eiffel-au-lever-du-jour.html\">\n                                Affiche Paris - La Tour Eiffel au lever du jour                            <\/a>\n                                            <\/article>\n                                                        <article class=\"rt-posters-reco__item\">\n                                                    <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/54-affiche-marseille-vieux-port.html\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                                <img\n                                    class=\"rt-posters-reco__image\"\n                                    src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/549-medium_default\/affiche-marseille-vieux-port.webp\"\n                                    alt=\"Affiche Marseille -  Vieux-Port\"\n                                    loading=\"lazy\"\n                                    decoding=\"async\"\n                                >\n                            <\/a>\n                            <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__product-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/54-affiche-marseille-vieux-port.html\">\n                                Affiche Marseille -  Vieux-Port                            <\/a>\n                                            <\/article>\n                                                        <article class=\"rt-posters-reco__item\">\n                                                    <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/9-affiche-annecy-canal-et-cygnes.html\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                                <img\n                                    class=\"rt-posters-reco__image\"\n                                    src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/220-medium_default\/affiche-annecy-canal-et-cygnes.webp\"\n                                    alt=\"Affiche Annecy - Canal et Cygnes\"\n                                    loading=\"lazy\"\n                                    decoding=\"async\"\n                                >\n                            <\/a>\n                            <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__product-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/9-affiche-annecy-canal-et-cygnes.html\">\n                                Affiche Annecy - Canal et Cygnes                            <\/a>\n                                            <\/article>\n                            <\/div>\n                    <\/section>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A poster of the region they left behind<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, moving far from home always leaves a little nostalgia.

Give the poster already framed, with two hooks and a small spirit level slipped into the parcel. So they hang it right, send them our guide on <a href=\"\/roadbook\/en\/decor\/how-to-hang-a-picture-frame\/\">how to hang a picture frame at the right height<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A vintage mirror from a flea market<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A mirror with a gilded or weathered wood frame, found at a flea market, makes a hallway look bigger and instantly gives it character. It is a one-of-a-kind gift that they will not find in any other home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For their first table<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A cast iron casserole dish<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A housewarming is about cooking for friends, so what could be more fitting than an enamelled cast iron casserole dish, such as Staub&rsquo;s round cocotte? It goes from oven to table, is handed down from one generation to the next and serves every slow-cooked Sunday dish of winter. A lovely joint gift from friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large rpa-pd\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/staub-cocotte-ronde-staub-en-fonte-emaillee-couleur-chocolat-avec-son-bouton-en-laiton-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Chocolate brown enamelled cast iron Staub round cocotte with a brass knob\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A round enamelled cast iron cocotte (photo: Staub)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Table knives<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Knives are always what is missing in a new kitchen. A set of table knives, such as Opinel&rsquo;s Bon App\u00e9tit range, will be used at every meal. An old superstition says you should never give a knife without receiving a coin in return: slip a coin into the parcel and they will give it back to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large rpa-pd\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/opinel-couteaux-de-table-opinel-a-manches-colores-poses-sur-une-table-en-bois-1024x412.webp\" alt=\"Opinel table knives with coloured handles on a wooden table\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Table knives with coloured handles (photo: Opinel)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A piece of handmade faience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A serving plate, a jug or a hand-painted salad bowl: regional faience brings a story to the table. Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, in Provence, is the capital of faience, with shops and workshops throughout the village, as we tell in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingtrippers.com\/en\/france-en\/provence-en\/things-to-do-in-moustiers-sainte-marie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">visit to Moustiers-Sainte-Marie on Rolling Trippers<\/a>.

Its grain makes it lovely enough to leave out on the worktop. A gift under \u20ac50 that lasts for years with a little oil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A kit for their first aperitif<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the housewarming party itself: a bottle of aperitif from their favourite region, a jar of olives, small glasses and an aperitif poster for their drinks corner. They will open it that very evening with their guests. \ud83e\udd42<\/p>\n\n\n<section class=\"rt-posters-reco\">\n                        <div class=\"rt-posters-reco__grid\">\n                                                        <article class=\"rt-posters-reco__item\">\n                                                    <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__image-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/94-affiche-marseille-l-heure-du-pastis.html\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                                <img\n                                    class=\"rt-posters-reco__image\"\n                                    src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/943-medium_default\/affiche-marseille-l-heure-du-pastis.webp\"\n                                    alt=\"Affiche Marseille - L\u2019Heure du Pastis\"\n                                    loading=\"lazy\"\n                                    decoding=\"async\"\n                                >\n                            <\/a>\n                            <a class=\"rt-posters-reco__product-title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/94-affiche-marseille-l-heure-du-pastis.html\">\n                                Affiche Marseille - L\u2019Heure du Pastis                            <\/a>\n                                            <\/article>\n                            <\/div>\n                    <\/section>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-01-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Kitchen table in a new flat with a casserole dish, a wooden chopping board and glasses, boxes in the background\" class=\"wp-image-211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-01-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-01-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-01-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-01.webp 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The first dinner in the new home: a casserole dish, some bread and a few friends<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For the home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A wool throw<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A real wool throw on the sofa makes a living room feel lived-in from day one. Brun de Vian-Tiran&rsquo;s comes from the mill founded in 1808 in L&rsquo;Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, in Provence, and run by the same family for eight generations. It is the kind of gift people keep for life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large rpa-pd\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/brun-de-vian-tiran-plaid-en-laine-couleur-chamois-plie-borde-dun-point-de-feston-blanc-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Folded chamois-coloured wool throw edged with white blanket stitch\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A wool throw edged with blanket stitch (photo: Brun de Vian-Tiran)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An easy-going houseplant<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A houseplant in a nice terracotta pot brings life to a home that is still empty. Choose an easy species that forgives a missed watering during the busy weeks of settling in: pothos, snake plant, ZZ plant or rubber plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bread and salt<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In several Eastern European countries, guests are welcomed with bread and salt. Giving both to friends who are moving in wishes them a home that never goes without. A good loaf from the baker, a jar of sea salt flakes and a short note: a housewarming gift that costs almost nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A handmade candle<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A candle in a glass or ceramic jar scents the home and masks the smell of fresh paint in the first few days. Choose a subtle, woody or herbal fragrance, and a container they can reuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A guest book for the house<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A beautiful bound notebook, placed on a hallway console, where every guest leaves a note, a date, a drawing. The first to write in it is you, on the night of the housewarming. In ten years, it will be the diary of their home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A basic toolbox<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A hammer, a screwdriver with bits, a tape measure, a spirit level and a box of wall plugs: less romantic, but incredibly useful for assembling furniture and hanging the first frames. Perfect for a first home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-02-1024x683.webp\" alt=\"Hallway console with an open notebook, a pen, a potted plant and a frame, keys in a small dish\" class=\"wp-image-212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-02-1024x683.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-02-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-02-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.rollingposters.com\/roadbook\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/cadeau-cremaillere-02.webp 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A guest book in the hallway: the first memory of the new home<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Giving a poster as a housewarming gift: our tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Choose a place that speaks to them:<\/strong> their new city, their home region, the place of their yearly holidays.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Match the size to the room:<\/strong> A5 (\u20ac15) for a shelf or a kitchen, A4 (\u20ac19) for a hallway, A3 (\u20ac24) for a living room.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Give it framed:<\/strong> a light wood or oak frame suits most interiors.<\/li>\n\n\n<li><strong>Add a note:<\/strong> \u00ab\u00a0welcome home\u00a0\u00bb, \u00ab\u00a0here&rsquo;s to new habits\u00a0\u00bb.

An A4 poster costs \u20ac19, an A3 \u20ac24. For a bigger gift, such as a cast iron casserole dish or a wool throw, club together with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is an original housewarming gift?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Give a poster of their new city already framed, a guest book for the house for guests to sign, or bread and salt, the Eastern European tradition that wishes the home never goes without.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a good small housewarming gift?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For under \u20ac20, an A5 (\u20ac15) or A4 (\u20ac19) poster of their city or region, a potted plant, a handmade candle or a loaf of bread with a jar of sea salt make simple, thoughtful gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A gift that makes them feel at home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best housewarming gift is not the biggest: it is the one that makes them say, as they put it down, \u00ab\u00a0now this feels like home\u00a0\u00bb.
