          This statement constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the Statement on
          Schedule 13D filed October 9, 1996 on behalf of Seymour N. Okner, the
          Samuel P. Okner Family Trust, the Ellyn Robbins Family Trust, the Joel
          C. Okner Family Trust, Samuel P. Okner, Ellyn Robbins, Joel C. Okner,
          Anne Okner and Debra Okner (the "Reporting Persons") in connection
          with the beneficial ownership of the Common Stock, no par value (the
          "Shares"), of HA-LO Industries, Inc., an Illinois corporation (the
          "Company") 


          1.   Paragraph (a) of Item 2.  Identity and Background, is hereby
          amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows.  

               (a)  Pursuant to Rules 13d-1(f)(1) and (2) promulgated under the
          Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), the
          undersigned hereby file this amendment to statement on Schedule 13D on
          behalf of Seymour N. Okner, the Samuel P. Okner Family Trust, the
          Ellyn Robbins Family Trust, the Joel C. Okner Family Trust, Samuel P.
          Okner, Ellyn Robbins, Joel C. Okner, Anne Okner and Debra Okner.  The
          foregoing persons are sometimes hereinafter referred to collectively
          as the "Reporting Persons."  The Reporting Persons originally made a
          single, joint filing because they might have been deemed to constitute
          a "group" within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Act, although
          neither the fact of that filing nor anything contained therein or
          herein shall be deemed to be an admission by any of the Reporting
          Persons that such a "group" existed. As reflected herein, the
          Reporting Persons have determined that no such group exists and this
          constitutes the final amendment to the statement for all of the
          Reporting Persons except Anne Okner.
