I Can't Wait For You To See The Gift Tags I Made!!



Yesterday was a really fun day for me!! I spent the day wrapping gifts and making special name tags.

I recently saw these gifts on pinterest, and I became inspired…….



I decided to give this idea my own twist!!

Trust me when I say these are sooooo easy to make.
All you will need is pictured below:

Everything  can be purchased at Michael’s, or Joann’s except for the bakers twine. I ordered that online last year. 

I used the red paper to make my own red tags. 

I downloaded some pictures of family members in black, and white.

Once I saw the pictures in black and white I decided  to use the old fashioned photo corners in black since a lot of my wrapping paper has black in it.

After cutting, glue sticking, glittering, and tying this is what I came up with……….

I added a little border of black glitter to the red tag.
Notice the tail of the ribbon on the right. I embossed one tail on each bow with the letter “P.”

I still have more to wrap, and more tags to hang on packages, but I put a big dent in my wrapping today.

Do you know what the best part of doing the tags was for me?

I got to see my beautiful family’s faces all day long!!
