Holiday Gift Ideas For Ad Peeps: Part 3

+This installment of gift ideas features some book ideas, tees and more for the ad peeps in your life.


Suits:
Help your Suits (or other suited gentlemen) stay in shape with this book featuring 50 exercises you can do with your suit on.

More info here.

Creatives:

Most creative types are brainstorming while they are doing everyday things...like taking a shower. It's a good place to let your mind wander and sometimes the best ideas happen here. But the problem is remembering them, which is why this is a great gift idea. A waterproof notepad!



Get more info here.

For anyone interested in the creative process, pick up a copy of Art & Copy. If you haven't heard of it, follow the link below for more info, but basically it's a look behind the scenes at how some of the most renowned ad campaigns of the 20th century came to be.

Social Media team:
They'll appreciate they snarky attitude of this tee.

Also a good gift for those LBSN-addicts in the office as well, who can't start a meeting, lunch or conversation without checking in first.

(Note how "Your Mom" is in all caps as a proper noun/location. Ha!)

Pick it up at Think Geek.









Mad Men Fans:
Since fans of Mad Men cross all departments, this is a general gift idea (if you're willing to shill out a bit of cash...maybe you work at Google and just got a raise). Pick up the collectible line of Mad Men characters, including Joan, Betty, Don and Roger. (Where is Peggy?)

You can pick up Joan, Don and Betty as a set for only $240...a drop in the bucket for that big time Madison Avenue salary you got there. ;) Find out more here. Just don't be surprised if you end up in a moment walking in on your CEO that brings back memories of Darth Helmet playing with his action figures in Spaceballs.

Web Designers:
Help your web designer bone up on their typography...which is often an overlooked component in design for the web.

A book that is good for newbies as well as those who have been designing for any length of time.

Read more about what the book entails here. (Note: Image is of the 2nd edition but the link goes to the 3rd edition with a different cover.)
