THIS. The only moving gifts I give are Home Depot or Lowes gift certificates as they will need to do stuff to their new home for sure.

FWIW, when we moved out of the country, I appreciated some DC-themed items that were given to us as going-away gifts! Thought it was super thoughtful, and we also displayed them in our new home.

OP - think it's very nice that you're thinking of this sort of gift, and I like the mug idea.

Bed Bath and Beyond used to have cheese boards with your state. Something like this https://www.etsy.com/market/washington_dc_charcuterie_board

Omg no. I received a DC-shaped cheeseboard once, it’s basically unusable lol. The dish towel I got w the DC stars and stripes was cute though.

I would get something from nakeddecor com.

These are cute, useful, and pack up small. I really like DC artist Marcella Kriebel who has beautifully painted designs for tea towels, posters, and magnets.
