#4 Urban Leaf Windowsill Herb Garden Kit
Urban Leaf helps you turn your windowsill into an easy-care edible garden. Growing stuff is hard. Especially for apartment dwellers. So Urban Leaf helps busy consumers, like your boss, channel their inner-green thumbs, without babysitting their flora, by turning a decorative bottle into a full-time plant-sitter.

#6 Coffee Gator Pour Over Brewer
Office coffee isn't always fresh, or sometimes not even available. I've found that this pour over brewer is a great gift for bosses who appreciate a nice cup of coffee, and not just those who bring in their own gourmet beans. It's easy to use and clean, and it turns any beans into a great personal cup of coffee.

#7 All-new Echo Dot (3rd Gen) – Smart speaker with Alexa
Alexa is not just amusing but is helpful in setting reminders, making calendar appointments, and answering random questions. If your boss is a Microsoft user, Alexa also conveniently coordinates with the Microsoft VA Cortana. Plus, you can get a good discount on the Echo Dot if you purchase at the right time, like Cyber Monday.

#9 Macbook Pro Sleeve – Charcoal Felt Black Leather Patch, Straps
Designers often take their laptops everywhere. Whether in the conference room or the coffee shop, this sleeve provides the perfect combination of style and safety and still fits in your backpack. Add a matching case for your charger to really showcase that designer swagger.

#10 Coffee Sleeve from Faribault Woolen Mill
Most of the work designers create should have a disclaimer that says, “fueled by coffee.” These wool sleeves will prevent you from burning your mouse hand on a cup of your favorite pour over. As an added feel-good bonus, the sleeves are made of re-purposed scraps from blankets and throws.

#11 Website Stencil Kit from UI Stencils
This stencil provides a welcomed assist for the designer that sketches boxes that look more like parallelograms than squares or rectangles. Stencils are great for quickly sketching common elements when brainstorming ideas for apps or the web.

#12 Apple Pencil Charging Dock from Lefon
A lot of designers have transitioned from traditional pen and paper to a more digital workflow. Without a somewhat bulky cover, the OG Apple Pencil is difficult AF to store without feeling like you may lose it at any time.
It’s even more awkward when it sticks out of the lightning jack to charge because it feels like it can easily break. This charging dock solves both of those problems while sitting comfortably on your desk.
