The Best The Office Gift Ideas for Fans!

Latest posts by Alexandra Gavrilescu (see all)

Since 2013, The Office hasn’t had any new episodes or reboots but this TV show’s popularity hasn’t slowed down a bit. People still watch it on Netflix and, perhaps one day, NBC will decide to create a reboot that many fans expect. The Office is still alive and doing great when it comes to merchandise.

Items such as Funko Pops, coloring books, and framed posters are ideal gifts for those friends of family members who used to watch the series.

In today’s article, I’ve decided to go even further and present you with some of the best office gift ideas that will delight your coworkers. Like the saying goes “friends are our chosen family,” workplace colleagues are those “family members” chosen by the forces of capitalism.

Most people spend more time at work with their coworkers than with their own families. For that reason, you are able to surprise them with thoughtful gifts because by now, you should already know most of their habits, interests, hobbies, and quirks.

 

The Best Gift Ideas for “The Office” Fans

The Office is a very popular TV show with many loyal fans. The fact that the series doesn’t have a reboot in the making left many followers heartbroken. Still, the following gift options might make them feel better and bring them joy. Here are the best picks of The Office gift ideas to select from.

1. The Office Talking Keychain

This keychain comes with funny lines from both Dwight and Michael and you can hear them just by pressing one of the item’s buttons. There are six different hilarious phrases from the show. The keychain measures 2”x3” and it uses three button cell batteries to function.

This is another The Office collectible item that any fan should own. Although the show has ended back in 2013, those who have watched this sitcom are still having trouble moving on. For that reason, Funko went and released several The Office Pop figures.

The Best Gift Ideas for Your Office Colleagues

Moving on from the popular The Office TV show, I also wanted to cover another topic, the one of the best gift ideas that you could offer to your work colleagues on their birthday or another special occasion.

Finding the perfect gift for one of your workplace comrades doesn’t have to be time-consuming or too expensive. You can always find something unique and thoughtful that’s also affordable. Here are some ideas that could inspire you.

1. A House Plant

A plant in a pot is always a good idea for a present because, unlike flower bouquets, this one can last forever (if the owner takes good care of the plant). Besides being an excellent housewarming present, it can also be a great choice as a gift for one of your coworkers.

Choose one that’s low-maintenance and can last in a wide range of conditions. Succulents and bonsai trees are some of my favorite picks. Orchids are also stunning pot plants but they are a bit harder to keep, being more delicate.

Plants are said to boost happiness and increase workspace productivity. A potted plant that’s easy to care for will make the office place look more stylish.

2. Moody Cards

With these funny cards, your coworker will be able to tell everyone around the office the way they feel. I guarantee he or she will have a lot of fun using these cards.

This gift is also helpful because the details written on each card are quite pertinent. The cards display messages such as “I’m on Tinder” and “Back in 5.”

Some of them are blank so that the people who receive this present can personalize it and write whatever crosses their minds. The package comes with over 30 flip-over messages, blank boards, and an erasable marker.

The mug owner will be able to adjust the desired temperature via their smartphone and he or she will receive notifications and reminders regarding the coffee’s status within the app. The battery lasts pretty long and the ceramic coating makes this mug resistant to scratches.

5. Tonymoly Peach/Apple/Mango Hand Cream

Everyone should use hand cream at work. I personally use one every time, after I wash my hands, especially during winter months. Offices use air conditioners a lot which can make the workplace a dry environment. This further leads to dry skin.

All the hand cream variations from Tonymoly are simply adorable and scented with the most amazing perfumes: peach, mango, banana, apple, etc. All these hand buttercreams are truly moisturizing and they don’t leave a heavy or greasy sensation on your skin.
