Unusual (And Cool) Stationery Ideas For Your Desk, Or Somebody Else’s

Looking for a small gift that is a little outside the ordinary, but still useful? Check out these three novel ideas. They won’t break the budget and could bring a smile to even the grumpiest of workmates!

Charging Charlie the Fireman Charger Cable

Charging Charlie Fireman Cable HolderNever lose your phone charger again! Charging Charlie will keep it secure and avoid your MP3, iPod, iPhone, or USB cable from escaping out the back of the desk. At under $20, bright red, and taking up a small desk footprint, it is both practical and fun!

 

Splat Stan the Drink Coaster

Splat Stan Drink CoasterMaybe you are looking for something with humor a little darker than Charging Charlie. Splat Stan is a coaster for your beverage of choice. Made of a funky silicone rubber it will insulate your cup and keep it from sliding around the desk. This one is under $10 at Amazon and a bargain if you are looking for a small Christmas or birthday gift for somebody at the office.

Amazon also sell a bunch of other similarly black-humored and unusual office accessories by the designer Suck UK.

Tech Tools ‘Fist’ Pen Holder

Tech Tools Fist Pen HolderMost of us have pens, pencils, markers and other odd bits of stationery rolling around the desk. Sure a jam jar can serve the purpose of keeping them together, but why not get funky with this white fistful of usefulness? The end is also magnetised to keep paperclips and other metal objects close at hand. Also available online for under $20 at Amazon.
