It's that busy time of year when we all have too much to do and not enough time to do it in, right? I always want to handcraft things for my friends but I always run out of time! Well here's a quick quick gift card holder that you can make in just a few minutes! I used Graphic 45's Twelve Days of Christmas 8 x 8 paper pad but anything will work!
Add a pretty ribbon to the top and you are finished and on to the next thing on your busy holiday preparations list!
Here's another quick little project to make a gift container from a jar. Its perfect for a sweet piece of jewelry or maybe some homemade chocolates! The jar I've used is plastic and it was a soup base jar. It's about 3 1/2" tall and 11 1/2 around. You can use anything that has proportions that will look like a drum. I used 1 sheet of 12 x 12 paper from Graphic 45's Twelve Days of Christmas, Drummers Drumming.
Now you have a pretty little drum box that's perfect for a special little gift for some lucky person!
Maggi, these are great ideas and I just love your altered soup tub, it's the cutest thing ever!

ReplyDeleteDenise, you are too kind, thank you so much for your sweet comment! We are on opposite coasts, as I am in NC!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas. I love the look of your tag. The drum is very attractive and would be a great decorative piece on its own even if it did not contain a gift inside. Thanks for sharing your talent.
