Farewell Gifts Mousepads for Graphic Designers
They're leaving. You're jealous. Make sure they remember you fondly. The perfect mousepads for the graphic designers in your life.
Why Mousepads for Graphic Designers
Design is art meets client management. You create beautiful work while interpreting feedback like 'make it more fun but professional.'
You spend eight hours a day moving a mouse around in circles while your soul slowly leaves your body. The least you can do is have a mousepad that understands. These aren't just functional desk accessories - they're tiny billboards for your inner monologue. Every click is a little more satisfying when it's on something that gets it.
About Farewell Gifts
When a coworker leaves, it's bittersweet. You're losing someone who understood the specific brand of dysfunction at your workplace, but you're also watching them escape. A farewell gift should capture that weird mix of 'we'll miss you' and 'take us with you.' Whether they're moving to something better or just moving on, they deserve a sendoff that's more memorable than a sheet cake and awkward standing around in the kitchen.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How much should a farewell gift cost?

- What if I'm happy they're leaving?
- Keep that to yourself and sign the card politely. Or skip the gift entirely—no one's keeping track. Save your gift budget for people you actually like.
- What size are the mousepads?
- Standard size (9.25" x 7.75") that fits any desk setup. Large enough to use, small enough to hide if the CEO does a walkthrough.
- Are these about bad feedback?
- Some are. 'Make it pop' gets its own section.
