Handmade Gift Tags

By Jackie H. [351 Posts, 211 Comments]

I like making my own gift tags because it gives me more room to write what I really want to say on the tag. Those little sticky ones you buy barely have room for the name! So this is what I do and it is very inexpensive. I did a lot of these and packaged them in sets of 25 for the fall fair I will be doing.

Supplies:

12 x 12 assorted Christmas card stock
1 large roll of 5/8 ribbon
1 package of Christmas bags (which you won't need unless you are selling them)
thin point red Sharpie marker
hole puncher

Steps:

Decide how big you want your tags to be. Make a sample and use that as your template.
Figure out how to get the most tags out of one piece of paper.
Draw, cut, punch a hole, and put a ribbon (about 8"), and tie it in a knot.

You now have tags that you can write special notes on!
