You were very sweet to make these for your co-workers. I wish I worked with you.

I agree it depends on the business and how people get along. I would hang on to them and give them out at each person's birthday. And give something generic like a big box of candy for everyone to share.

Bet those co-workers of yours would rather have your hand made cozy. Don't forget the golfers in your life. They use them in the summer to keep their frozen drinks from defrosting to fast.
