So thinking I might get a head-start on wrapping gifts, I was searching the studio for new and different tag ideas...I wanted burlap, but with a twist...
I had several small 4x6 and 5x7 wooden frames, a lot of burlap, felt and a staple gun...voila...a gift tag is born!
I cut the burlap about an inch larger that the frame, and back-wrapped it, fastening in place with the staplegun
(hot glue might do the trick, but you can stretch the burlap taut with the staple gun)
Also...to finish off the back, you could either add ribbon to cover the staples, or a felt backing
If you were to stop here...grab some black paint, put on a fabulous initial, and add a black & white ribbon...but for this festive touch...
I cut decorative felt to size, leaving a nice border to let the burlap show
I cut out my initial from felt, then using quick fabric glue, glued both the felt and initial to the frame...
Then reached for cute ribbon scraps...
...glued and stapled some onto the frame to accent and tie it on...
...and then, in just a quick staple here, glue there, you have a tag as cute as the present!
Would be adorable in your Christmas holiday wreath too!
To make this, and three other really different, but fabulous tags...stop by next Tuesday at the studio for the First Day of Christmas Creating...Here's a quick look at the schedule...

Its nice content, Great
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure of your site?
ReplyDeleteIts very well written; I love what youve got to say.
But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could
connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only
having 1 or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
