- For a really creative and unusual gift you could get him a custom made bobblehead. This is a fun and personal gift that shows your boss just how much you appreciate him. You can have the head hand-sculpted to match a photo of your boss, and then design the body and choose an appropriate outfit. For example, if you know he loves to play golf, give his bobblehead custom-made golfing gear. If he is an avid fisherman, it could be a thoughtful idea to have him wearing a fisherman outfit.
- A "Grow Your Own Brain" plant is certainly an unusual gift to give your boss. This gift is an amusing accessory for the office and is perfect for a busy boss as it takes very little effort to maintain. All he will need to do is water the soil once, place on the seed lid, screw the lid on and position on a windowsill. The colorful flowers, which resemble brains, will soon begin to grow and flourish.
- For those bosses who just love to be praised, a box of applause can make a unique and humorous gift idea. This gift is perfect if your boss is a bit of a joker. Every time he is craving a little recognition he can open the box and he will be greeted by an enthusiastic round of applause. Choose a box that is plain with a nice finish so it can also make a nice decoration for his desk.
- A personalized wine bottle is an unusual gift which shows your boss how much you value his work, and could put you in a good position for a promotion or a raise. Choose a wine or champagne you think will suit his tastes and have a personal etching or label put onto it. Make sure that, along with your personal message, you put who the bottle is from to ensure that he remembers who gave him such a great gift.
