When I asked Tip Junkie Facebook fans what they wanted me to post about during our Christmas in July celebration, a few of you requested gifts for coworkers.  Really, I think any small gift can be tweaked into the proper colors for a coworker, teacher, or neighbor gift.  Here are my top 10:

My Coworker Gifts to Use

1.  DIY Camera Bag {Semi-Homemade} – A great camera bag can be expensive but a purse won’t protect your camera.  This DIY camera bag started off its life as an inexpensive but cute purse from a discount retailer. With a few alterations it is a stylish and functioning camera bag.

2.  Make a Custom Laptop Bag, or any kind of bag – A tutorial with step by step instructions for customizing a bag or pouch for just about anything.  Great for your laptop or iPad.    Simply choose a more masculine pattern for men.

Gifts for Coworkers to Wear

3.  Upcycled Tie Statement Necklace – Repurpose an old tie into a one of a kind necklace that is perfect for dressing up an plain t-shirt or a simple dress.  The supply list is small and no sewing machine is needed.  For more crafts to make with Ties for men, check out 40 Home made gift ideas for men.
4.  Stamped Initial Necklace {DIY} – You can use this initial stamped jewelry tutorial for almost anyone!  Make necklaces and bracelets for women and key chains for men and grandpa’s.
5.  Fabric Flower Pin {No-Sew} – A pretty flower broach can dress up any outfit for Spring.  This easy, no-sew pattern is a great way to create a unique flower pin of your own.

6.  Cottage Chic Button Checkerboard – This checkerboard would be really great for anyone, but for a coworker I would make it smaller and use button colors that would be appropriate for that person.

Christmas Crafts

7.  Fabric Notepad Tutorial – These clever notepads are a great way to use up extra notepaper, as well as your fabric scraps.  Use them as party favors or make a set to match your friend’s kitchen.  Includes easy to follow pictured instructions.

8. Inexpensive Coasters {How-To} – An inexpensive DIY gift for anyone.  Chris made these for Christmas gifts for teachers, but by using different patterns of vinyl, you could make this a gift for any occasion.

Coworking Gift Ideas

9.  Free Surgical Hat Patterns – here are several Dr. Scrub medical cap patterns for a medical uniform.  Aka the scrub hat in fun colors that your co-worker would love.

10.  Dollar Store Sewing Kit {Paper Crafts} – Turn a dollar store travel sewing kit into a cute party favor or small thank you gift.
