4 Gift Ideas for Admin Day

When working in an office, there are several jobs that if left unchecked, could impact the company’s success. Administration Professionals Week, or Admin Day, is a holiday dedicated to recognizing the work that administrative employees do to keep businesses running smoothly. Choosing the perfect gift for an employee or colleague can be difficult, so today we are sharing 4 Gift Ideas for Admin Day that are sure to make any recipient feel appreciated.

 

Flower Arrangements

Having an office that is cheerful is an important component in efficiency and enjoyment when at work. If your Admin’s desk could use a pick-me-up, consider giving them a fresh flowers. There are several different kinds of flowers and arrangements to suit any style or budget. If your Admin has a favorite flower or color, consider taking that into account when choosing an arrangement. No matter what type of arrangement you choose, flowers are a great gift for Admin Day to show that you care. 

Gift Baskets

If your Admin isn’t a fan of plants or flowers, consider giving them a gift basket. Administrative employees do so much work for their employers, so give them the relaxation they deserve with a self care gift basket. A basket of bath products ranging from soap to bath bombs is a great way to show that you care. If self care isn’t something your Admin would enjoy, consider a basket of home-care products or gourmet snacks. There are a variety of different gift basket options that would make a great gift for Admin Day.

Desk Plants

Flowers are a great way to brighten any office, but not everyone likes flowers. If you want to bring some life into your Admin’s office space, consider giving them a plant. There are several plant options, such as terrariums that include living plants, but don’t require a lot of upkeep. Unlike cut flowers, plants continue living and can provide encouragement as their care for it helps it to grow. The level of care a plant needs varies from one to another, but with the right guidance you can find a plant to suit your Admins skill level. Whether you choose a green or blooming plant, giving a plant can make a wonderful gift for Admin Day.

 

Faux Plants and Flowers

Everyone loves beautiful fresh flowers, and there’s no better way to show your appreciation. While receiving flowers or plants can be nice, taking care of them can be a difficult task. Looking for something that will have a longer shelf life? Unlike real plants and flowers, silk versions look real, but will stay fresh long after real flowers would have wilted. Silk flowers and plants are available in a range of types and styles to fit any preference, budget, or space. For a personal touch, consider building your own arrangement using silk versions of your Admin’s favorite flowers. This allows you to take part in each element of the design process, adding a personal touch to this delightful gift for Admin Day. 

Administration employees work everyday to make the businesses around us achieve their goals. Give them a gift for Admin Day that will help them to de-stress and get the relaxation that they deserve.
