In this post, we’ll explore some creative and personal gift ideas that are sure to leave a smile on your client's faces.
We are not sponsored by any of these companies! We're just sharing the best unique client gifts we could find.
Let’s get started with our first unique client gift idea which is wildly popular in 2024.
Gift Idea 1: Customized Stanley Cup
Giving a customized Stanley cup as a gift to your clients is a unique way to show appreciation and keep your business in their thoughts.
Stanley Create offers a fun and personalized gifting experience, allowing you to customize your favorite Stanley bottles, tumblers, and barware. Engraving your business logo, a special message, or even a playful drawing directly onto a Stanley cup makes for a one-of-a-kind gift.
Not to mention, the quality of a Stanley cup is unmatched. They are so durable and keep drinks at the perfect temperature for hours. Clients will be reminded of your own reliable business who gifted them the quality cup.
In 2024, Stanley cups have become extremely popular, making them a sought-after gift that clients are sure to love and use daily. Even if your client themselves has no need for a water bottle, odds are their husband, wife, or kids would!
Whether it's a monogram, a custom graphic, or a simple text, personalizing a Stanley cup for your clients not only offers them a practical and stylish gift but also serves as a constant reminder of your thoughtful partnership.
To customize a Stanley cup just visit the section of their website called "Stanley Create" where you can choose a Stanley cup, and customize it using any photo.
Gift Idea 2: Personalized Charcuterie Board
Acacia Crafts Art's Personalized Charcuterie Board
If you don't know what a Charcuterie Board is, you're not alone! They are just a fancy piece of wood where all sorts of meats, cheeses, and fruits are served on. But they are incredibly popular right now, frequently used at parties to serve guests.
They are not just functional but are also a piece of art for the table, especially when they are made from materials like marble and acacia wood. Charcuterie boards, just like wine, bring a touch of class and sophistication to any gathering.
They're perfect for formal occasions or a cozy evening at home, making them a talking point among guests. Imagine your client hosting a party where the charcuterie board you gifted becomes the center of attention. It could even lead to a referral for your business! Who knows!
You can find a variety of charcuterie boards on platforms like Etsy, where people hand-make custom boards. Whether it's laser engraving the client's family name, a special date, or even your business logo, a personalized charcuterie board turns an already elegant gift into something truly special and unique.
We found one charcuterie board that really stands out from Acacia Crafts Art that you should really check out, but go ahead and shop around on Etsy for more options.
Gift Idea 3: A Wine Subscription
Gifting a wine subscription to a client can be a unique and sophisticated choice.
Firstleaf is service that delivers wine straight to your door, and allows you to pick what types they enjoy, whether it's red, white, or a mix. This way, your client will be able to pick wines that are personalized to their taste, so they know they'll love every bottle.
Drinking wine is a popular and (frankly) classy activity, so giving wine as a gift reflects well on your business.
And with services like Firstleaf that tailor the wine to your client's tastes, they are to get wine that they love.
Just make sure to consider whether your client likes wine; if they don’t drink alcohol, a wine club might not be the best option. You'll want to explore some of our other options.
You can find all the wine subscription gift options at Firstleaf's Gifts page.
There are plenty of other wine subscription services too, so shop around! Another popular choice is Bright Cellars.
Gift Idea 4: Customized Dog Oven Mitt
A Customized Dog Oven Mitt from Pet Party on Etsy
Everyone uses oven mitts, and these aren’t just any mitts; they’re hilarious and heartwarming, featuring the adorable face of your client's beloved pet. Handcrafted by local part-time moms in Portland, Oregon, each pair is made to order, ensuring a unique and personal touch.
Customized dog oven mitts are an ingenious gift idea for that client who loves their furry friend. While there’s a bit of (4) legwork involved (did you get the pun?)—since you'll need to make sure your client has a dog (obviously), and trickier, you'll need a picture of their dog—the effort is absolutely worth it. If your client has a puppy, this gift is sure to be a home run, no doubt.
If you're close with your client already, being straightforward is the best approach. Dog owner's phones are already filled to the brim with dog pics, so we all know they have them! Just be direct and tell them you're making a little gift for them and if their comfortable with it, you'll need a picture of their puppy.
You can find them here from the seller "Pet Party" on Etsy.
Gift Idea 5: Bean Box
A Bean Box subscription makes a great unique gift for clients for several reasons.
First, coffee is incredibly popular, enjoyed by millions around the world every day. Even if your client isn't a coffee drinker, they likely know someone who is.
Second, Bean Box features an assortment of coffees in various flavors, sourced from Seattle's top small-batch roasters. This ensures that each selection is of the highest quality, offering a unique tasting experience that's sure to impress.
The wide range of flavors means there's something for every palate, making it a memorable gift that stands out.
Giving a Bean Box subscription shows thoughtfulness and good taste which will reflect well on your business.
You can find find a gift off of Bean Box's website. They have a few different coffee bundles to choose from ranging from around $20 to $100.
Gift Idea 6: Personalized Cutting Board
A Personalized Cutting Board from CraftSyde
Just like the personalized charcuterie board (we suggested earlier), a personalized cutting board offers a blend of elegance, sophistication, and practicality, making it an excellent gift for clients. However, a cutting board is likely to see more frequent use, becoming an essential part of daily meal preparation. This means your gift will not only be a beautiful addition to your client's kitchen but also a constant reminder of your business's thoughtfulness.
Personalized cutting boards serve multiple purposes; they're not just for chopping vegetables or meats. They can be styled as a serving board for appetizers, a cheese board for elegant gatherings, or even as a decorative piece on a dining table or kitchen counter. They are so versatile that you won't have to worry, your client will absolutely have a use for it!
We found one on Etsy from the seller CraftSyde, and it a great choice not only because it uses beautiful walnut wood, but because it has a ocean-like effect that is so memorable. If your client enjoys vacation destinations like Florida or Mexico, or just likes to go out to the beach, they are bound to love this gift.
You can buy one here from CraftSyde, or search on Etsy to find the perfect one for your client.
Gift Idea 7: Hot Sauce Gift Box
Fuego Box is a unique company that specializes in curating variety packs of hot sauces, making it an excellent gift choice for those who love to add a little spice to their meals.
But, before considering Fuego Box as a gift for your client, it might be wise to subtly check if they enjoy spicy foods. While not everyone has a palate for heat, those who do will love this gift.
Fuego Box offers an impressive selection of hot sauces, ranging from mild to wild, ensuring that there's something for everyone. With so many options to choose from, your client is almost guaranteed to find at least one sauce that they love.
Gifting a Fuego Box is a great way to provide a personalized and memorable experience, showing your client that you’ve put thought into finding something unique that they're bound to appreciate.
Fuego Box has a bunch of different hot sauce boxes you can choose from on their site. I've been gifted this before, and it's one of those gifts you'll never forget! Luckily, I happen to like spicy food so it was a great gift for me.
Gift Idea 8: Tiesta Tea Sampler Pack
Tiesta Tea and their loose leaf tea sampler packs are a thoughtful gift choice, especially considering the universal love for tea.
For those who might not enjoy coffee or wine, due to caffeine sensitivity or avoiding alcohol, tea offers a great alternative. Tiesta Tea’s sampler packs feature a wide range of tea types, from energizing black teas to soothing herbal blends, ensuring there's something for every taste and occasion.
The variety within these packs allows your clients to explore flavors they might never have tried otherwise, from classic favorites to more exotic blends.

Gift Idea 9: Roku Streaming Stick
While this isn't personalized or from Etsy, a Roku streaming stick still makes for a unique gift for clients that's both practical and enjoyable.
It's so simple anyone can use it, no matter how tech-savvy they are. Most people have more than one TV at home, and a Roku makes it easy for them to add streaming capabilities to another set. So you don't have to worry if they already have one.
And as an added bonus, every time they settle in to watch their favorite shows on Netflix or Hulu, they'll remember how thoughtful your business was to gift it to them.
Gifting a Roku is a subtle yet effective way to leave a lasting positive impression on your clients.
You can buy a Roku online at Amazon, or Walmart, but a ton of other stores would have them in-person as well like Best Buy.
