What is a White Elephant Gift?
A white elephant gift is a funny or ridiculous gift that is pretty much useless except for a good laugh. These kinds of gifts are generally perfect for work parties and friends. However, it can be hard to come up with something good! It must be affordable and hilarious at the same time.
Some trends in the past have been the gift of air (an empty box), mini desk games, novelty calendars, and more. As stickers become more popular, we believe these twelve labels are the best white elephant gifts this season.
1. Spicy Labels
The New York Times featured our spicy labels last year as one of the best white elephant gifts you could buy. At a little under $7.00 for 500 labels, these stickers certainly don’t break the bank.
The bright orange of the labels sticks out against all backgrounds, so when your friend uses them, you know they will be visible. Calling someone spicy is probably a peak compliment since it means they are fierce, fiery, and just straight fun to be around. And the best part, they can keep the spicy compliments going by handing out these labels to all their friends.
The adhesive is apparel safe – so they can wear the label around to let everyone know how spicy they truly are. Check out our product video to see these labels in action!
2. Attention Labels
Our attention labels are a great gift to write on and give to friends. For about $13.00, you receive 500 blank white stickers with a bright red bar saying attention at the top. In the blank space, you could write funny inside jokes or notices.
One fun way to use this label is to have everyone write something on it. Then, you can randomly pick one to wear at the party or event. You can write anything on the sticker. Great for parties with friends and co-workers of all ages.
Use these labels and compliment a significant other as well! Give your significant other a different compliment each day with one of the 500 stickers. This way, they can start their day with something uplifting. These labels are apparel safe and remove from clothing without leaving a residue.
3. Caution! Radioactive Material
This caution radioactive material label is a great gag gift to give at any white elephant party. A bright yellow sticker with the words “Caution! Radioactive Material” written in red on it. For under $10.00, you get 500 labels.
These stickers are great for putting on various household items. One of our favorites is putting it on lunch bags or gifts for friends. The fun is endless with these labels!
These labels have a strong adhesive that sticks to most surfaces. It is safe to wear them on clothing. They do not leave a residue.
4. Nut Free Labels
These nut-free labels are great for a more adult-themed white elephant gift. These stickers are a plain gray with white font. They suit dry humor well and convey different meanings when given to men or women.

5. Bless Your Heart Labels
Southern hospitality in the south is one of the greatest experiences in the world. People consider Southern hospitality outside of the south as one of the sassiest forms of communication. These bless your heart labels are a fantastic white elephant gift as people can take it in whatever way they please.
Saying bless your heart kindly is an incredibly sweet sentiment. One could also consider it condescending (and hilarious).
Your friend can use these labels to have fun in their life. You can buy 50 labels for them for $7.00. The comforting Kraft paper will only add to the fun as they use this sticker. Check out our product video to see these labels in action.

11. Boneless Labels
These boneless labels were a big hit last year (and also featured in the New York Times) as white elephant gifts for friends. For some reason, people found them extremely funny – strange! But, if a name popped into your head for someone who would also find this label hilarious, then you’ve found the perfect gift.
For a little over $5.00, you get 500 labels. That means they can spread the goofy stickers to their friends too. The bright orange label will easily catch people’s attention against any background. This label will clearly show that whatever or whoever it’s stuck on does not have bones.
