Housewarming wishlist
Wishlist for the housewarming
What is missing is on it. What you already have is not.
After the move the flat is half furnished and everyone wants to bring something.
Write down what is still missing and send the link with the invitation. Then nobody brings the fourth vase.
Here is how
Start a list
Pick an occasion, give it a name. Done.
Collect wishes
Paste a link. We do the rest.
Share the link
Share it with friends and family - that is it.
What is actually missing after a move
Usually small things: a baking dish, a laundry basket, an extension lead. Unglamorous and in the way every day when they are missing.
One bigger wish can join them. Several people club together for a lamp or an armchair.

Three small things that matter
- Write down measurementsWith lamps and furniture the centimetre decides. Into the note it goes.
- Ask for help tooCarrying, painting, assembling. After a move, time is worth more than decoration.
- Share it with the invitationThen nobody asks what they should bring.
Wishes for children
A profile inside the parent's account. No e-mail of their own. Parents decide what gets shared.
Common questions
Is a housewarming list too direct?
Most guests ask anyway. A list saves everyone the guessing.
Can I ask for help instead of things?
Yes. Add it as a wish without a price.
Do I see who brings what?
No. Your guests see it, you do not.
Do my guests need an account?
No. The link is enough.
Can I keep using the list later?
Yes. Rename it and carry on while things are still missing.
How many wishes make sense?
Ten to twenty, across different price ranges.
