Housewarming present ideas for my boyfriend?

Hi,

I'm looking for inspiration please?

My BF is moving in with me and my 4year old daughter in 2 weeks :j, I'm wanting to make/buy him a housewarming/moving in present.

Does anyone know any ideas of what that present could be?

Thanks in advance

    A drawer in the house of his very own ;) (just one mind, he is a man after all!) Maybe fill it with sweets and booze... say this is your drawer/cupboard/space to do what you want with.

    A nice big "his" mug.

    Your daughter could paint one for him ( not sure what paint you need though)

    His own proper space is the best thing though: his coat hook, space for shoes, space in the wardrobes JUST for him :D
    :beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
    Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
    This Ive come to know...
    So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:
  • Aw thank you so much for your very quick responses! My BF has been stopping a few times so he's already got 1 drawer {but like you say, just 1 lol}

    Loving the ideas of a mural picture, that is a really thoughtful gift. Thing is we don't have many pictures together yet

    Thanks again xxx

    Be naked. Have food. Cake, preferably. :D
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.
  • hahahaha thank you mrbadexample - very apt name!

    I'm sure nakedness will happen at some point
