Gift ideas for coworkers was a super popular request from y’all when I asked which gift guides you needed this year!
I totally get it. Workplace gifts are really hard and can be such a grey area. Do you gift up? Do you buy something for everyone? Alcohol – yes or no? How much to spend? SO many questions!
Every workplace is different too. Some of you work in hospitals, some in classrooms, some from home, and some in a corporate office. In addition to your workplace setting, coworkers can vary so much too.
So today I’ve rounded up 25 gift ideas for a WIDE variety of colleagues at a wide range of price points. I hope that this guide helps you find the perfect gift for your bestie at work, a group gift for your boss, or a little something for all your team members.
Gift Ideas for Coworkers
1. Personalized AirPods Case
The perfect gift for the coworker who lives in his or her earbuds. And these can be personalized for an even more thoughtful touch. Available in AirPods, AirPods Pro and AirPods 3rd Gen.
Want to gift these to everyone on your team? Here are lower price point options:
- AirPods Pro Silicone Case (7 color options)
- AirPods Gen 1/2 Hard Shell Case (6 patterns)
- Keychain AirPod Cases (several options)
2. Video Conference Mute Button
If you sit on conference calls all day, I know you are shaking your head and smiling thinking about exactly who you want to gift this to.
With this gadget, you can quickly mute and unmute without searching for the mute button — and the light will let you know when you’re muted. Will toggle mute even if you have Zoom minimized or you’ve lost the Google Meet Chrome tab. Works with Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, and more.
3. Kosterina Extra Virgin Olive Oil
I think this is the item I’m including on EVERY gift guide this year! I am obsessed with this superfood. It has a rich, bold flavor, smooth taste, and is packed full of antioxidants that promote your overall health and well-being.
This is my pick for staff gifts if you need a larger gift quantity at an affordable price!
4. Laptop & Notebook Organizer
Make traveling with your laptop from the conference room back to your desk SO much easier! This flexible organizer attaches to laptops and notebooks for easy transport (even inside your bag)! Available in 4 colors.
5. Travel Coffee Mug with Splash Guard
I don’t care how many coffee mugs you own, THIS ONE is the best for your morning commute. This double-wall, vacuum-insulated stainless steel tumbler retains heat up to 12 hours and stays cold up to 24 hours. It has a slim design so it fits into your cupholder and includes a snap-in splash guard.
Available in 10 beautiful colors.
6. Birdie Safety Alarm
A safety alarm that is perfect for carrying from day to night – parking decks/garages, on public transportation, walking the dog, on trails, across campus, when traveling, etc.
When activated this alarm will sound a loud siren and flash a strobe-light to create a diversion and to help deter an attack.
Available in 5 colors.
7. Espresso Martini Infusion Kit
Everything you need (except the liquor) to make luscious, coffee-flavored cocktails at home.
The glass steeping jar comes prestocked with espresso beans, cacao nibs, and cinnamon. Just pour in the spirit of your choice and wait about a week. The ingredients will steep into an aromatic liqueur that you can enjoy on its own or as the velvety base to a variety of coffee-flavored cocktails.
8. Tile Mate
For your colleague who is constantly looking for his or her keys, badge swipe card, bag, etc.!

Add your small essentials to the pockets inside, roll it up and secure with the leather tie to keep organized on the go.
11. Mini Bluetooth Speaker
I have and love this bluetooth speaker that went viral last year.
It features 9 built-in magnets (and extra metal rings) so you can attach it to any metal surface (my girlfriend accidentally left hers attached to her car and drove all over town before realizing it when she got home!).
This portable, durable speaker also has excellent sound quality and can play for 8 hours.
Available in 3 colors.
12. Erasable Gel Ink Pens
These retractable gel ink pens write smooth and erase clean. They are also refillable and come in a pack of 7!
13. Energy Cleansing Sage Bundle
Who doesn’t need a good energy cleansing before/after a big meeting or workday? Obviously, this will not work in office environments, but I thought it was a cute and unique gift — for those who work from home.
This bundle of aromatic herbs clears negative energy and brings cleansing, peace, and protection to your space.
14. Mini Zen Garden
Bring balance and serenity to your desk at work, great for momentary escapes or channeling creativity and positive vibes!
