A few requests rolled in for a few additional gift guides – this time, for teachers and bosses – and I think many of these items can be given to both groups. I know how hard it is to give gifts to people who you might not know all that well so I rounded up a bunch of crowd pleasing items plus items that could make any desk job more enjoyable.

- WALL CALENDAR // nothing like starting the new year off with a fresh new calendar
- TOTE BAG // blown away by the price of this bag, I bought one for myself! I’m always schlepping stuff back and forth to work, I need a good bag dedicated just to the task. Comes in multiple colors and if you are gifting multiple people, they have package deals too.
- CANDLE // I always appreciate a nice quality candle
- PERSONAL HEATER // I have one of these at my desk and use it nearly every day
- DIFFUSER // to keep you calm and zen at the office all day long
- MUG WARMER // you’ll never have a cold cup of coffee or tea again
- LIVE PLANT PACK // such a great price for this set of 4 live plants, this is what Emie will be gifting all her teachers. I’ll have her paint a few inexpensive terracotta pots and it’ll make the perfect gift
- BRIGHT BOX // I received one of these from a sweet friend during a rough time and it instantly put a smile on my face. You can choose from one of their curated boxes, or build your own.
- HANDS-FREE SANITIZER // a sign of the times but also totally useful too
- TRAVEL CROCKPOT // I have and use this to bring hot lunch to work which is great because then you don’t have to wait in line to use the microwave come lunch time
- DESKTOP FAN // nothing worse than being stuck in a stuffy office all day
