Need Christmas gifts for your team, your coworkers, or a few good clients? You do not need a big budget. A small engraved gift with a name on it feels personal, and many of our gifts cost less than $10. We are Custom Mammoth, a small family laser engraving shop. We design, engrave, and pack every order ourselves. We have 2,600+ sales on Etsy as MammothEngravingUSA, and the holiday season is one of our busiest times.

Here are 9 personalized Christmas gift ideas for coworkers and clients, all under $15, plus tips to help you plan your order.

Why Personalized Gifts Work for Coworkers

Office gifts can be hard. You want something nice, but not too expensive. You want something useful, but not boring. A small engraved gift solves both problems. When you add a person’s name or initials, a simple keychain or ornament becomes their own gift.

Personalized gifts also work in many ways:

  • For your team: the same gift for everyone, with a different name on each one.
  • For a Secret Santa or gift exchange: a gift that fits a small price limit.
  • For a few clients: a thank-you gift with their name and a short holiday message.
  • For one special coworker: a gift with an inside joke, a favorite word, or a pet’s paw print.

Before we start engraving, we always send you a design proof by email. You can check every name and the layout first.

9 Personalized Christmas Gifts Under $15

1. Round Leatherette and Metal Keychain (Our Top Pick)

Our Round Leatherette and Metal Keychain with Custom Name or Logo is our favorite gift for coworkers. One side is vegan leatherette. The other side is metal. You can choose from 12 colors, like Tan, Grey, Purple, Turquoise, Black Silver, and Black Gold.

  • Leatherette side only: $5.95
  • Leatherette and metal sides: $6.95

Our tip: choose both sides. The engraved metal side looks great, and it is only $1 more. Put a name on the leatherette and a short message on the metal, like “Merry Christmas 2026” or “Thank you for a great year.”

2. Leatherette Christmas Ornaments

An ornament is a classic Christmas gift, and it goes on the tree every year. Our Engraved Leatherette Christmas Ornaments come in 4 shapes: Christmas Tree, Star, Circle, and Oval. Colors include Tan, Dark Brown, Gray, Black/Gold, and more. Add a name, a year, or a small design. Price: $4.95 each. This is a nice gift to put on every desk, or to tuck inside a holiday card for a client.

3. Custom Engraved River Rock

River rocks are our best seller. Our Custom Engraved River Rock: Design Your Own is a polished black stone with your text or design. It makes a fun desk gift or paperweight. Engrave a name, a word like “Calm” or “Boss,” or a short team motto. Every rock is natural, so the shape and color vary a little. Price: $4.95 (1–2 inch) or $6.95 (2–3 inch).

4. Engraved Slate Coasters

5. Leatherette Coasters

Prefer something lighter? Our Engraved Leatherette Coasters are vegan leatherette in Beige or Rawhide. They are easy to mail to clients or remote team members. Price: $5.95 for 1, or $49.50 for a pack of 10.

Everyone at work uses a pen. Our Engraved Ballpoint Pen with Touch Tip has a stylus tip for phones and tablets. Add a name on the pen. You can choose the pen only, the case only, or the pen and case together. Price: from $5.95 to $11.95.

9. Stainless Steel Star Keychain

For a manager, a mentor, or a long-time client, try our Personalized Stainless Steel Star Keychain. It is shiny metal in a star shape, a good fit for Christmas. Price: $12.95 for 1 side, $13.95 for 2 sides.

Tips for Ordering Team Gifts

  • Make a name list. Write every name clearly, and check the spelling. Email the list to us, and we will show the names on your proof.
  • Keep the message short. Short text is easier to read on small items. A name and a year often look best.
  • Use one design for everyone. Same layout, different names. This keeps the gifts fair and looks good as a group.
  • Order a few extras. A new team member or a surprise guest may join the party.
  • Approve your proof quickly. We start engraving after you approve the proof. The sooner you reply, the sooner we can ship.

Ordering and Shipping

Everything is laser engraved and made to order. Here is how it typically works:

  • You place your order and email your names or design to customammoth@gmail.com.
  • We send a design proof first.
  • Small orders can often ship the same day if you approve the proof early; larger orders usually ship within 3–5 business days after approval.

Because every item is personalized, we cannot accept returns. Please check your proof carefully before you approve it.
