Need last minute gift ideas?
Recognize anyone you know from the descriptions below?
Personality #1 “I don’t need anything, all I want is to spend time with you”.
This person has always loved your handmade gifts. Remember the clay ashtrays, holiday cards with your hand prints, special poems, class pictures…. This may be one of the most important people in your life, maybe a grandparent, parent or favorite aunt or uncle. This person deserves to be recognized and feel appreciated.

Idea #1 Come up with special words that describe that person in your life. You design it (It’s Free) and if you want you can frame it. They will love it!! Here’s a sample of the one I did for my mother-in-law. http://www.wordle.net
Idea #2 – Burn a CD with memorable songs that have special meaning to both of you. ie.family vacations you took as a kid, songs from favorite TV shows or movies you watched together, the first song you learned to play on the guitar or piano.
Ergonomics is all about healthy postures. Remember to work in a comfortable seated position with your arms at a 90 degree angle when custom designing your gift and or burning your CD.
Personality #2 The “Super-stylish” personality:
This person is “fashion above all else”. They wear heels on a hike, makeup at the gym, short sleeve or sleeveless shirts in the winter (in Montana). This person appreciates the distinction of being a trend-setter.
Idea #1 – Designer Computer glasses.
They know they need them but before now computer glasses were not “cool enough”. Take a look at these. Even the fashion police give these two thumbs up.
Idea #2-Trackbar Mouse. I bet they haven’t tried the trackbar mouse yet? This mouse allows mousing with either hand, reduces arm, neck and wrist discomfort. Especially designed for the fashion conscious. Accessory sleeve available in 10 different colors. Everyone will envy them at the office. 
Personality #3 The “Latest and greatest” personality:
This person loves to work hard and play hard. They push the envelope. They ride rollercoasters, fast cars, enjoy snowboarding on black diamond, etc.. They love innovative high tech toys. Great ideas for this person include:
Idea #1 – Smartfish Ergomotion keyboard. The first intelligent keyboard. It moves and adjusts to the individuals typing style as you use it. This keyboard is said to actually reduce repetitive stress injuries. Very high tech!!![]()
Idea #2 - Handshoe Mouse-It’s brand new, fits like a glove. Provides
the ideal shape for mousing. Comes in right or left – small,medium and large. It’s incredibly comfortable. They will love it!!
Personality #4 The “Warm Hearted but it’s cold in here” personality:
This person is always cold no matter if it’s summer or winter. They are the ones that try to change the thermostat, never go anywhere without a sweater and coat and gloves. Help keep them warm they will love you for it!!
Idea #1 – Heated Footrest. Turn it on and they will be able to
warm up in even the coldest offices.
Idea #2 – Heated Office Panel. Radiates warmth throughout their entire workstation area. Designed to be economical and energy saving. 
Personality #5 The “Works…works…works” personality:
This person comes into the office early, stays late and works nights and weekends at home. Keep your favorite workaholic happy!!
Idea #1 – Super comfy Ergonomic Chair. Get them their “chair of a lifetime” with all the bells and whistles to give your “desk jockey” a comfortable and safe ride! They deserve it!! You do not have to go over-budget because there are so many high-quality yet low cost ergonomic chairs to choose from.
