For all the work out of the home parents, it is the time of year where you need to have some random, but thoughtful gifts for the people you work with. If you are lucky like me, you’ll think this is a fun activity, but for some of you, this is an absolute chore. So, in the interest of helping you out, here is a list of some fun co-worker gift ideas.

Beautiful and funny folders –  Let’s be serious — we all can use some folders at work, and even better if they are as cute as these are! I love things that you can use and that are adorable.

Funny coffee mug –  If you are like me, having extra work coffee mugs is a godsend. I have a little stash in my office that I use on the days I am too late to grab a coffee on the way to work. I have a mug very similar to this that a coworker got me last year and I LOVE it.

Cute succulent planters –  Succulents are a go-to for me because they are super easy to take care of. I often gift these with a tiny spray bottle as well so the recipient can easily take care of them.

Mini desk zen garden – One of my very best work friends has one of these on her desk and I can literally spend an hour just lazily raking and rearranging the items. It is super soothing, and really cute too!

Salt lamp – One of the worst parts of the office is the lighting and the lack of air flow. This tiny salt lamp has a nice soft glow, and it can help purify the air around you. Great for that coworker that seem stressed all the time.

Beautiful and functional pens – I bought a set of these about 6 months ago as gifts for some coworkers who helped me on a huge project, and not only are they cute, but they write like a dream!

Window bird feeder – For your coworkers that enjoy watching birds, this is the perfect gift! Pair it with a bag of bird seed and you’ve got a great and easy gift.

Keyboard cleaner – One of the things that really bothers me is a dirty keyboard. I used compressed air for years until someone gifted me with this crazy thing. It seems like it is going to ruin your keyboard, but it is a miracle product!

Desk foot hammock – For your coworker that needs to relax, this is a great gift. It is easy to install and can be taken down quickly too. I have one that I use on occasion and I love it.

Throw blankets – We all know that offices are notoriously frigid in any season (I am currently sitting with a foot warmer and a desk heater pointed at me). These throw blankets are small and easy to store, perfect for a cubicle or small office.

If all else fails, food is always a winner for coworker gifts. Wrap them in a nice little bag and you’re done! Any good coworker suggestions?
