One of the happiest events in a person's life is receiving the keys to their own home. It doesn't matter if it's a house or an apartment, as long as it's not a dorm room.
It is customary to celebrate this event by inviting guests who, in return, give some useful things.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told us what useful things can be given in such a case.
First about prejudices
It is not customary in such a case to give a clock, be it a wall clock, a floor clock or something else. Even the most beautiful and expensive models are not suitable as a gift, especially for a young couple.
It is believed that the owners should buy them.
Another object that can cause quarrels and discord is a mirror.
Sharp objects are also not given as gifts, and new housewives should not be given pearl jewelry, which is the embodiment of women's tears.
And you also can’t give money, because it is believed that such a gift takes away the well-being of the family.
What to give
1. A lamp is literally a gift that brings light into the home. A floor lamp, sconce, lamp or even a night light would be an excellent choice.
2. As a trinket, you can give the new settlers a horseshoe as a souvenir.
3. And from useful and pleasant little things, they usually choose a key holder.
Such gifts will also become a talisman for the home.
Earlier we talked about how not to ruin your interior with mirrors.
