Whether your boss is a good friend or strictly your employer, it can be a bit tricky to find a gift that’s thoughtful and appropriate. Avoid anything ostentatious or too personal and try to give a gift that relates to your boss’s interests or is something they can use at the office. A vintage-style movie print is a unique gift for the film buff, while a gadget accessory, like this handy device holder and charger, is a useful idea for just about anyone. This cute tea infuser adds some holiday cheer to their day, while an oversized scented candle can provide some much-needed serenity in the workplace. A fun and practical pen is always in demand and an artistic ceramic coffee tumbler is a stylish way to get that much-needed caffeine fix while on the go.
