Sticky-Note Surprises: A Creative Way to Celebrate Office Birthdays

Tired of the same old office birthday celebrations? Looking for a fresh, creative way to make your coworkers feel special instead of just passing around a generic card? Try the Sticky-Note Birthday Collage!

Here are the Details:

On a teammate’s birthday, everyone in the office takes a sticky note and doodles something fun—balloons, cake, party hats, confetti, or even a silly inside joke. If drawing isn’t your thing, a friendly message or fun quote works just as well!

Then, all the sticky notes are placed in a central spot—their desk, office door, window, or computer monitor—creating a colorful, one-of-a-kind birthday collage. Bonus points for using unique sticky note shapes—think stars, balloons, or speech bubbles! It’s an easy and creative way to celebrate, and best of all, it takes just a few minutes! Plus, the birthday star gets a keepsake full of fun, personal touches from their coworkers.

Give it a try at your office and turn birthdays into a mini art show of appreciation!
