For the past couple of years, I have been crafting custom gift tags. They have been an easy DIY using blank gift tags and Washi tape. This year I went a little crazy on the gift tags, creating multiple versions and different color schemes.
[spacer height=”16px”]It all started with the idea that I want to up the luxe factor of the tags by adding metal eyelets. A couple of trips to the craft store and Amazon purchases later, I had created families of gift tags. They are easy to create. And it’s a way to get gift tags in the color scheme of your wrapping paper and ribbon.

COLLECTION 2 | BRONZE ORNATE TAGS
I couldn’t find 2″ square black cardstock anywhere. So I created my own by cutting down 100 lb black cardstock into 2″ x 2″ squares. Create a 1/8″ hole into your tag using the Crop-A-Dile punch. Then add a 1/8″ gold eyelet following the instructions included in the Crop-A-Dile punch to finish the hole. Using a Gold Fine Tip Sharpie Marker and wrote Merry Christmas and Merry and Bright onto the card mimicking the look of hand lettering.
[spacer height=”16px”]I found a hand lettering image that I liked on Pinterest of the text and tried my best to copy it. It’s fun because every tag is unique. Add a few bronze dots to the tag. Tie to package with black satin ribbon and rose gold or gold jingle bells!
The entire black + gold family.
