This would be a breeze if you’re someone who has the natural inkling of knowing precisely what to give a person (or if you’re close to the receiver personally), but what about the majority who don’t? No one wants to be the person who gives a bath towel for the “something soft” category. Fret not because here are some office Kris Kringle gift ideas and where you can find them to help you veer away from clichéd, uninspired gifts.
My coworkers received the most creative and embarrassing gifts last week from dustpan and broom, to plunger and the ever-reliable “tabo“. I was hoping someone would give a chamber pot (aka “arinola”)! Make sure that you don’t require gift wraps for this theme and pray that your “baby” is a certified commuter. A Kris Kringle gift for anyone obsessed with pretty paper things, this undated planner pad from National Bookstore can have the name of your monito or monita on the cover. This pad serves as a planner for the year ahead or just a nice place where your giftee can jot down his or her thoughts and ideas. Comes in A5 size, this planner is all for simplifying task management and to-do lists for busy bees.
Kris Kringle Gift Ideas Under $15, $30 and $50
Fifteen bucks doesn’t go as far as it used to, but there are still loads of great – and useful – present ideas at this price point. Discount departments stores are a great place to start, but plenty of high street retailers, including fashion stores, also have small but useful gifts, such as Gorman’s great range of printed socks. We always want to feel young and reminisce about the good old childhood days. You are in luck if you share the same age with your group or team.
One year I brought my KK a box of Lindt chocolates, and I was right on budget. Funnily enough, my KK brought me the exact same box of chocolates that same year. That's right I can sense that not many hands are being raised right now. Simply purchase a massage voucher to the value of the KK.
Christmas Pot Holder Gift Sets for Kris Kringle or Xmas Gifts or for Stocking Stuffers or as a Teacher Appreciation Gift
Products dedicated to this problem are in abundance. One is the Aurae Natura Blissful Sleep Pillow Spray from Human Nature. This Kris Kringle gift idea comes in 10ml and is made out of a concentrated blend of essential oils and floral waters; the Precious Pain Away Pillow helps ease you into getting sleep. It is guaranteed to give a good night’s sleep, so it could be a welcome gift no matter what the Kris Kringle themes might be.
Looking for “something long and hard” to give as gifts? Another fun gift idea that anyone would love to receive is the classic back scratcher. There are plenty of fab gift ideas in this mid price range, and if you have more cash to splash, you can take the themed approach and combine a couple of these together. For example the metallic straws and Aperol, or the pool ring and the insulated tote or beach tennis set. A nice sturdy water bottle will ensure your secret santa never suffers dehydration or a lack of cuteness particularly thanks to these Mr Men water bottles.
Gift Ideas Under $30
Kris kringle presents the perfect opportunity to give your family, friends, or co-workers something they need everyday. Great examples of this could be stationery, paper clips, hair ties, safety pins, and other things people always need but may not necessarily think of. With the streets all aglow with Christmas lights and decorations, it only makes sense to give gifts that are also shining, shimmering, and splendid! Get your Christmas sparkle on with a shiny new metal straw, glitter gel pens, a nice set of earrings, or a personalized wax sealing kit.
Sportsgirl has a great range of small gifts and accessories too which will give you change from a fifty. There are loads of well priced beauty products at Sephoratoo. Sleep is one of the most crucial things our body needs, but unfortunately, some of us don’t get to have quality shut-eye.
Found something you love but want to make it even more uniquely you? Many sellers on Etsy offer personalized, made-to-order items. I always love a new cook book for summer or something fun for entertaining with summer BBQS, NYE and Australia Day gatherings on the horizon. Our family Kris Kringles have a budget of $50, so this is a price point I am very familiar with right now. I find I can often buy two substantial items – a book and a voucher for example – or one bigger item – such as the earrings below – for a pineapple. When in Manila,there is always room for creativity.
You can also get shops to do the funny work for you and get this witty shirt from Linya-Linya. It will be easy to go home at the end of your Christmas party if your Kris Kringle theme is “something small”. You may opt for something small yet extra useful such as this multi-tool that fits right in your keychain. If your friend group loves all things tech, you can even get a customized keycap. Basta I want to give the very best gift to my "manita" in the spirit of Christmas. This is where the gift has to be something that you already have but don’t want, and you swap it in the same way as mystery kringle or dirty santa.
You are the Kris Kringle for the person you draw. Next you write down a gift suggestion or two on a wish list and your Kris Kringle chooses a gift for you from that list. Everyone appreciates something that they can use in their day-to-day lives.
A few colourful pens from Smiggle will give you (as the KK, your money's worth) and will put a sweet smile on your receiver's face. We all need such stationery to write things down from time to time. Buy your KK a Boost Juice voucher to the value of your KK allocated spend.
In other situations it can be $15, no more than $20. You just need to buy one at a Chinese massage place right near your workplace. That way the receiver of your KK gift can then choose what type of massage he/she desires.
