How to pick the best Christmas gift for your boss

The perfect Christmas gift to give your boss will depend on a few factors, like how long you’ve worked for/known your boss, whether or not you interact outside of work and if you’re giving other coworkers or team members presents as well.

Generally, you want to keep these gifts small and thoughtful. Giving something big and expensive to your boss could come off the wrong way. Here are a few pointers to keep in mind while shopping:

  • Think of small things that he or she could use around the office.
  • Find a small gift set or gift basket with items you know they enjoy.
  • Consider something quirky for the boss with a good sense of humor.
  • When in doubt, go with a small gesture like a card and a bottle of wine or box of chocolates.

What can I get the boss who has everything?

If you’re having trouble coming up with something your boss truly needs or wants while still being appropriate, try these ideas:

  • Gift card to a local restaurant or coffee shop
  • Tickets to a game
  • Office decor or accessories
  • Foodie gift basket

What are the best DIY Christmas gifts for bosses?

There’s nothing wrong with hand-making something small to give your boss for Christmas. It’s a great way to not only save money, but to give something thoughtful. These are just a few ideas for your boss:

  • Custom coffee mug. Use a permanent marker to create a personalized design on a store-bought mug, then place it in the oven to bake the design on.
  • Dry erase calendar. You’ll need an empty picture frame and scrapbook paper or stickers to create a one-of-a-kind dry erase calendar that your boss can reuse every year.
  • Travel mug full of goodies. If you know a little about your boss, grab a travel mug or cup and fill it with goodies that he or she will love — like candy, office supplies or soaps and lotions.
