My oldest son just purchased his first ever home! It reminded me of my first home purchase years ago and made me start thinking about what we bought then and what he's buying now to make a house a home. Here is my list of must haves for first time ho...
We bought this for our son when he recently purchased his first home. It is a great first tool set and comes with almost every basic tool there is. I'm sure he will add to his tool collection as he finds specific things he needs, but he has already g...
BLACK+DECKER 68 -Piece Household Tool Set (No Case)
Safety first, right? We bought this set for our son. We thought it might be something he wouldn't think of, and with four in the pack, these will cover his whole house! I like that it is not only for detecting fire but also carbon monoxide. These are...
4 Pack Battery Smoke & CO Detector Alarm
This was our Christmas present to our son for his first house. It is reasonably priced while also offering the features that he wanted. It is a propane gas grill with a side burner, and it was easy to put together and use. He is not feeding an army a...
Nexgrill 4-Burner Propane Gas Grill 52,000BTU
We helped our son pick out his first set of cookware, and this is the set we all decided on. I worry about the safety of some of those non-stick coatings, but this stainless steel set didn't have any of that. I also like that the handles stay cool to...
Mueller 17-Piece Ultra-Clad Pro Stainless Steel Cookware Set
We had ordered us one of these sectionals a couple of years ago, so when our son needed a couch for his new home, we recommended this to him. I researched the heck out of sectionals before we bought ours, and Home Reserve had everything we were looki...
Deep Seat Sectional | Modular & Sustainable | Home Reserve
This has been the best purchase! We bought it for our son because his first home doesn't have a lot of storage, but then I ordered one for our home as well! We have an older home, and the storage has always been an issue. We put these under our kitch...
Ukeetap Pull-Out Storage Organizers, 2-Pack
I have always been afraid of a fire, so much so that we have two of these on both floors of our home along with a safety ladder in case we get trapped on the second floor! When our son bought his first home, this was one of the first things I bought ...
Prepared Hero 2-Pack 40x40 Fire Blanket
Love the handrails! Having a ladder was not something that my son immediately thought of when he bought his first home, but he quickly realized that he couldn't even change a lightbulb without one! One of the first things he wanted to do was paint and change out some of...
Kingrack 5 Step Folding Ladder for Adults, 800lbs Sturdy Steel Stool Ladder with Anti-Slip Pedal&Handrail&Tool Tray for Home Kitchen Office
I am a lifelong Purdy paintbrush fan, and this is my “go-to” for cutting in around doors and windows. Purdy brushes have always made a big difference to me, and when my son first started painting his new home, I gifted him this brush. He has a LOT of...
Purdy® Clearcut® Elite™ Glide™ - Sherwin-Williams
This was the perfect rug for my son's new living room! It is completely washable, and since he is planning on getting a dog, that is important! It is non-slip and has stayed in place well. He is using earth tones - terra cotta, dark greens, mustard y...

Softest throw ever! This dark green chenille throw blanket is perfect for the living room in my son's new home. It fits the color scheme and is so soft and cozy to cuddle up with! It is a larger size (50 x 60), and the weight is perfect for all seaso...
Perfect accent chair! We helped our son pick out this chair, and he actually ordered two of them. They fit his earth tone color scheme, and they are beautiful! They really warm up the space and are more comfortable than I thought they would be. He or...

This turned out so well! I took a picture of our son's first home and ordered this watercolor of it on Etsy! We framed it for him as a housewarming gift, and he loved it!
