Can anyone help me with this Christmas shopping challenge, please?

[ButtercupWafflehead]

Hi! My Mother has requested "something to go on her desk" for Christmas.

By this, I assume she means something to organise her paperclips etc, possibly a photo frame with Grandchildren to brag about show colleagues.

She is not into anything kitsch, I have had a quick look at WHSmith, Paperchase etc and find myself stumped.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated!

Any good?

Funky desk tidy in the shape of a giant pencil sharpener?

What about a mug for work with photos of grandkids on or a mousemat with photos on?

this is a nice photo frame?

this is functional??

I think a nice photo frame and family picture inside would be lovely! The Great Ormond Street charity shop has a really nice diary if she's after worky type stuff!

(whoops, just spotted that she isn't into anything kitsch, sorry)

Give her a pot plant.

I like this

Pot plant is good idea too! Cactus?

What about one of these?

I'd be happy with one for my desk

Great ideas and links, will have a good shop later!

ShepherdsWashed not sure exactly to what you are referring?

Either one of the fellas really.

You mean the worker, or the bendy art statue?

Both
