Below are ten perfect housewarming gifts to consider for friends, family, and loved ones who have recently purchased a new home in Ottawa.

House Shelves
A combination of simple and exciting, house shelves from Denmark are the perfect new addition to any home. The simple geometric designs and classy rustic feel make them perfect as a housewarming gift.

Ambigram Door Mats
Depending on how you view an ambigram, you can get different meanings. The ambigram doormats read “come in” when you approach and “go away” when you leave. A nice little touch humorous for any new home.
-
Strongman Toilet Paper Holder
The strongman toilet paper holder is a great present that can be practical and fun. The “strongman” sits on top of the toilet bowl and hoists a roll of toilet paper in each hand for easy dispensing.
