Custom Christmas Gifts for Employees and Clients 2026 (No Minimum)
Share
The best custom Christmas gifts for employees and clients in 2026 are useful branded items people keep: an embroidered beanie or hoodie for your team, an insulated tumbler or water bottle for the desk, and a journal, candle or rocks glass for clients. Every gift below can carry your logo with no minimum order, so a five-person team and a 200-person client list order the same way. Order embroidered gifts by December 5 and printed gifts by December 10 (December 7 for the West Coast, Mountain states and Texas) for Christmas delivery.

For the whole team: embroidered apparel
Embroidery gives a raised, textured finish that reads as premium, and it is the gift employees keep wearing after the holidays. Digitizing is included on every design with no setup fees, and embroidered items ship in 5ā7 business days. Larger embroidery orders get volume savings applied automatically at checkout; see custom embroidery for the tiers.
- Custom Embroidered Beanie: a cuffed, stretchy rib-knit beanie that fits most adults, in black, navy, heather gray, red or forest green. Ideal for crews who work outside in December.
- Custom Embroidered Hat: choose a structured cap, a relaxed dad hat or a mesh-back trucker in black, navy, white, khaki or charcoal. One style covers almost everyone.
- Custom Embroidered Hoodie: a soft fleece pullover with a lined hood, front pouch pocket and your logo stitched on the chest, in sizes Sā3XL.
- Custom Embroidered Polo Shirt: an easy-care polo with a left-chest logo, in six colors and sizes Sā3XL. Mix sizes by adding each one to your cart.

For desks and remote employees
- Custom Insulated Tumbler with Straw (20 oz): stainless steel with a lid and straw, in mint, black, white, navy or pink. Hand-wash only, and it is not leak-proof, so it is best kept upright on a desk.
- Custom Stainless Steel Water Bottle (17 oz): a double-wall vacuum bottle with a leak-proof cap that keeps drinks hot or cold for about six hours, in black or white.
- Custom Desk Mat: a large mat with a non-slip rubber base in 12ā³Ć18ā³, 12ā³Ć22ā³ or 16ā³Ć32ā³. A good choice for remote staff because it ships flat and gets used every day.
- Custom Hardcover Journal: a 5.5ā³Ć8.5ā³ hardcover with 80 lined pages, an elastic closure, a ribbon marker and an inner pocket, in nine cover colors.
For clients and partners
- Custom Rocks Glass (10.5 oz): a heavy-bottom glass with your logo. A matching pair makes a classic client gift. Hand wash only.
- Custom Label Soy Candle (9 oz): natural soy wax in a glass jar with your logo or a thank-you message on the label. Nine scents, including Christmas Warmth, and a 50ā60 hour burn time.
- Custom Cork-Back Coaster: a high-gloss coaster with a cork back that is water-repellent, heat-resistant and non-slip. Order four for a desk set.
- Insulated Travel Mug, 40 oz: a double-wall tumbler with handle, lid and straw, in white, black, blue, red or gray. A standout gift for your most valued accounts.
- Custom Golf Towel: a soft microfiber towel with a grommet and ring that clips onto a golf bag. A smart pick for clients you see on the course.
The finishing touch
- Custom Wrapping Paper: gift wrap printed with your logo or brand pattern, in glossy or matte. Even a simple mug feels like a branded gift when it is wrapped on brand.
Employee gifts vs. client gifts: what is the difference?
Employee gifts work best when everyone gets the same item in their own size or color. It feels fair and builds a team look, which is why apparel and drinkware are the safest picks. Client gifts are more selective: fewer, nicer items, often paired, such as a rocks glass with a candle or a journal with a water bottle. For both, keep the logo tasteful rather than oversized. A small left-chest or front-center logo gets worn and used far more often than a giant one.
Adding names for each employee or client
For one logo on every item, upload it once per product and set the quantity. For a different name on each gift, add each item to your cart separately with its own file, or email info@dtfsirius.com with your name list before you order.
