Here are things I've made for co-workers in the past:
Rope Bowls---- Yarn Hot Pads
Thread Bowls---- Microwave soup bowl holders
Coasters---- Knitted Dish Rags
Humbug Bags---- Dryer Balls
Snap Happy Bags---- Quilted neck scarfs
Coke Can Koozies
Pillow Cases

I wanted to make some chap stick holders but never did. I think they would be very useful.

I made these for all the females in my family for Christmas last year. I used the different flavored chap sticks in them. Every one of them brought big grins when given. They all loved them. I used D rings from Joann's and scraps. They're so quick and easy to make.

It has been a long day. I thought taking chop sticks skiing seemed like a great way to impale ones self. And were they expecting Cashew chicken at the bottom? Reading for comprehension is s good idea.

YOU ALL ARE THE BEST! Thank you so much for taking the time to list all of these appropriate projects for my friends. Now just to decide on which one. I have until September.

Copycat-that is a great idea for a little gift and thank you for the link. I think I will make some for my granddaughters and put it in their Christmas stockings.

I too do the soup bowl caddies as a quick gift around the holidays. I like this idea of a chap stick holder too.

I made a duffel bag for a graduation gift a couple of years ago & I clipped one of these to the bag with a yummy flavored chap stick. My pattern was a bit different than your link but it worked out great. They would make great stocking stuffers.
