Housewarming Thank You Cards for Your House Warming Party!

Most people are not really fond of the act of moving. All of the hassle, the packing, the heavy lifting, the disorganization, the paperwork can throw your entire life into chaos not just for a single weekend but for weeks or months! Of course, the only relief you can find at the end of the awful task is that you can throw a wonderful Housewarming Partyin the comfort of your new home. With friends and family around you, all of the moving turmoil can melt away. Of course, once the party ends you'll need to think about mailing your Housewarming Thank You Cards.

Thanks You Cards: The Basics

Before you can get too far along in the process of preparing these cards, you need to know a couple of things. First, etiquette does give you a time line for sending out the moving thank you cards. From the time of the party, you have two weeks. While that may sound like a lot of time, you need to be sure to order them as quickly as possible after the celebration to ensure that you receive them and can complete them in enough time. That can be a challenge but showing your appreciation to your guests is important enough to warrant the sacrifice.

Second, you should realize that each thank you note needs to be handwritten and needs to contain an original message. Sending out pre-printed cards with the same  bland message only shows you're lazy not appreciative. The content of the note can be simple and straightforward. You simply say thank you for whatever you received, briefly explain why you love the gift, and invite the recipient to return to the home at a later time. Below is an example to help you generate some of your own ideas for moving housewarming thank you cards.

Dear Rachel and Mark,

The thoughtful gift card to Home Depot was a wonderful present. With so many small jobs I wanted to take care of around the new place, it really was a perfect idea. Both of you have to come over very soon and see some of the things I’ve already done. Send me an email or give me a call so we can make plans.

Keep in mind that the unique closing on this example of housewarming thank you cards is something you should strive for as well. Avoid using trite expressions like "Sincerely" which have lost most of their real meaning thanks to overuse.

A Few Other Points

You can't leave the topic of housewarming thank you cards without discussing who should receive them. Obviously, anyone who brought or sent you a gift after your move is entitled to receive one. However, they may not be the only ones. If you had friends or family members who helped you move, be sure to send them a nice note as well. Even the moving or cleaning companies you worked with during the process deserve a note to say you appreciated their hard work. And don't forget to say thank you to your old landlord, your real estate agent, and even to the people who bought your old home.
