Funny gifts that begin with ‘O’
I like to start with the funny and gag gifts first, because I have a guess you do, too. No worries, here – there are plenty of humourous gifts that start with the ltter “O” for your Letter O party.
Funny office gifts
You can be serious or go the funny route with gifts for the office – I choose funny. It’s almost mandatory to give a funny office gift, especially in a job that you really have to have a sense of humour!
Complete the circle with funny office accessories, funny office decor, funny office signs, and funny office supplies. Show your co-worker or friend that you “get them” and give them the gift of a little stress relief!
Funny oven mitts
There is an entire world of gift giving out there dedicated to funny oven mitts. If you have not received or given a funny oven mitt, do it now before someone steals your idea!
I love funny kitchen towels, too, but it always seems the quality is subpar on cloth gag gifts. Know that going in that you are spending the bucks on the laugh, not so much long-term use.
Funny adult onesies
OMG. For a sure-fire laugh, wrap up a funny adult onesie (ggs article) There are entire party themes devoted to adult onesie parties, and I emphasize that they are good clean fun!
Please note that the fun continues with “kigurumi” adult pajamas, funny adult bodysuits, and funny adult rompers. Click on the link to read more!
Gifts that start with ‘O’ for adults
Is this out-of-the-ordinary gift (starting with the letter O) for a Christmas exchange, white elephant exchange, or an alphabet gift exchange? Whatever the reason, we have got you covered with our list of gifts that start with ‘O’ for adults.
Letter ‘O’ gifts: anything ORANGE!
Orange-colored gifts count my friends, in the game of alphabet exchange. Unless your host has made it against the rules 🙁 Imagine all the fun you can have giving a big box of orange colored food, complete with orange decorations for an Orange Party.
Letter ‘O’ gifts: anything ORGANIC!
The world’s your oyster (if it’s organic!) If you are looking for gifts that are eco-friendly and sustainable, organic gifts are a great choice. They are not only good for the environment, but they are also healthier and safer for the recipient.
Choose from organic food to organic personal care products. If you have a personal connection with the grower, or have a favorite product yourself, that would be the organic gift to give. Or support a local person who stands behind what they sell. One such example is Guadalupe Roastery.
Products like organic tea, organic coffee, and organic chocolate are grown without the use of harmful chemicals and pesticides. They can be tucked right into an organic-themed gift basket full of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and snacks.
Creative and novelty gifts starting with ‘O’
Origami Kit. For a gift that’s both creative and relaxing, consider an origami kit. This gift is perfect for anyone who loves crafting or wants to try something new.
Ocarina. Made popular by the video game Zelda, teenagers and young adults are eager to become ocarina players (or more accurately “ocarina flutist”). As a mom, I admit that I have a few in my house. Don’t forget to the give instructions (some ocarinas ship with no directions on how to play an ocarina).
Original Artwork. For anyone who appreciates art, consider getting them some original artwork. This could include a painting, a sculpture, or a piece of pottery. Other options might include a personalized metal sign, or a commissioned piece of artwork with their pet or home, or landscapes of the local region (Etsy artists rock this!).
Organizers start with the letter ‘O’!
Gift the gift of organization. In fact, that is my personal favorite and a way to stay away from gifts that just add more clutter to the home. Organization projects can add up fast. For example, say the person wants to do a closet makeover – that would involve hangers, drawers, cubbies, sock organizers, etc.
Organizers are a one-size fits all gift because everyone could benefit from organizing their life:
- garage organizers
- auto organizers and storage
- home organizers
- office organizers
Gifts that start with ‘O’ for the kitchen
Let’s just make this easy. Get anything from the Oxo Good Grip Company. Oxo is a company known for high-quality kitchen tools. If you have ever watch America’s Test Kitchen on public TV, you know that when they review products, it’s often the Oxo products that come out the winner.
Gifts for the office
Offices get neglected, whether it’s a company office, or a home office. Lot’s of opportunity here, folks! Maybe the person needs a new:
- desk set
- a plant for the office
- wall art for office or
- inspirational and motivational posters
Don’t forget things for Zoom meetings and online conferences, such as noise-canceling headphones. Scope out or start a casual conversation what the giftee might need, and go from there.
Gifts that start with O: Ornaments
If there is “an app for everything” than there certainly is an ornament for everything!
If you’re looking for a thoughtful and decorative gift that starts with the letter O, consider gifting a beautiful ornament gift. Ornaments can be a great way to add a personal touch to someone’s home decor, and they’re perfect for any occasion, from Christmas to birthdays to weddings.
Make it even more special by personalizing it, turning a keepsake into a Christmas ornament, or buy an ornament where you can insert your own picture. Ornament gifts also cover the spectrum of hobbies: sports, pets, etc. – it’s a sure-win gift.
Gifts that start with O: Technology and electronic gifts
Electronic gifts are usually a safe bet. Who wouldn’t want the latest and greatest tech gadget?
Take for example, the Oculus Quest 2 – This virtual reality headset is perfect for gamers or anyone who loves immersive technology experiences. Don’t forget outlet timers -how else do you think that Christmas tree is going to turn on and off?
Electronic odor eliminator. You need to eliminate odor. It’s electronic. What more is there to say? You may know them by there more cool-sounding name, ozone machine.
Gifts that start with O: Outdoor gifts
Let’s give outdoor gifts its own section! There are so many great ideas when it comes to outdoor sports, adventures, and hobbies. If you’re gifting to an outdoor enthusiast or cook, there are lots of gifts they will love!
How about an electric outdoor pizza oven, yum! Your friend can keep tabs on the temperature with an outdoor temperature thermometer. Ready for adventure? How about an orienteering kit. Or just relax in an outdoor hammock, and swat the flies with an electronic bug zapper!
