Housewarming Gift Prints

Housewarming gift prints

A new home starts with bare walls and a lot of boxes. A housewarming gift that goes on the wall stays long after the flowers and the wine have gone. These six antique clock prints are about home itself: the rooms that shape us, the habits we live with and the things we choose to keep in sight.

All six come as one instant download, and every design is also sold on its own as a print made to order and shipped worldwide, unframed or framed in oak, black or white.

Six antique clock prints about home, from Book II of Time’s Richest Harvest, laid out as a set

The Architecture of Reminder, set of 6

Six lines from Book II of Time’s Richest Harvest, as one instant download with A4 and US Letter files. They suit a hallway, a kitchen wall or a staircase. Buying the set works out at around 40% less than buying the prints one by one.

Choosing a housewarming print

Think about where it will hang. Hallways and kitchens are the walls people see most, so a short line read in passing works best there. A longer line suits a study or a landing, where there’s time to stop and read.

Give a print, not a frame, if you’re unsure of their style. An unframed print lets them choose a frame that suits the new place. If you know their taste, A4 prints can come framed in oak, black or white, ready to hang on the day.

Make it personal. Write the date they got the keys and the address on the back of the print or mount. It turns a print into a keepsake of the move.
