New Home Gifts
A house sign or personalised slate piece is one of the few housewarming gifts that actually belongs to the home, not just the people in it. Something with the house name, the family name, or the date they moved in — made to go on the wall and stay there.
Most of our products are bought as gifts — for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, new homes, and occasions where something generic won't do. Whether it's a name, a date, a message, or a logo, personalisation is the whole point. It's what makes a piece worth keeping.
We also supply businesses with bulk and branded orders.
FAQs
Engraved new home gift questions
Everything you need to know before ordering. Still unsure? Get in touch and we'll help.
What’s a good personalised gift for someone who’s just moved, rather than buying their first home?
The same pieces work for both — a house sign or slate piece personalised with a name or moving date doesn’t need to be tied specifically to a first-time purchase.
Should I put the house name or the family name on a new home sign?
Either works, and it depends what the house already goes by. If it doesn't have a name yet, a family name or surname is a safe, lasting choice.
Is it presumptuous to give a house sign before they’ve settled in or decided how to decorate?
Not usually — most people see it as a welcome gift for the home itself rather than an opinion on their decor, and it’s easy to put up whenever they’re ready.
Can I include the moving date instead of, or alongside, a name?
Yes — many customers include both, with the name on one line and the date on another.
Is a slate sign suitable for an apartment or flat, or just houses with a garden?
It works for both. Indoor placement near a front door is just as common as an outdoor house sign.
What if I don’t know the exact house number or address yet, like if they’re still moving in?
A name or date-only design avoids this issue entirely — you don't need the address to make the gift meaningful.
Is this an appropriate gift for someone downsizing or moving later in life, not just young buyers?
Yes — house and home pieces are popular across all ages and life stages, not just first-time buyers.
Can I get something smaller for a desk or shelf rather than a wall-mounted sign?
Yes, our smaller sizes suit a shelf, console table, or desk just as well as a wall — let us know if you’d like guidance on which size fits that purpose best.
