The season for gift-giving has arrived and we are so excited! We love the process of finding and giving gifts to the people we love. It’s so much fun thinking up gift ideas and hunting for the perfect presents that will make people smile.

Sure, sometimes it can be a stressful process. What do you get for that family member who seems to have everything? Or the sister who always asks for personal defense weapons, like knives? (True story; she’s going to be a cop. Should we be worried?!) There’s only so many options before you need to come up with something truly creative. Most moms don’t have a lot of time to spend getting creative to find or make that perfect gift. Giving unique and creative gifts can be a challenge – but we enjoy it!
For us, the actual present is only part of the gift. The packaging is almost as important. Think about it; isn’t it more fun to receive a fancy gift with a giant bow and sparkly paper than a gift wrapped in a plastic bag? We think so.
Enter these adorable customized gift tags!
These fun Christmas gift tags are just one of the many gift tag variations we use each year to jazz up our gifts. We’re showing them to you because they are so simple and fast – they are perfect for busy moms who don’t have time to go crazy in the craft department! We know you can make them, you will love them, and the people receiving the gifts will love them even more.
These are particularly great for kids to help create. Even the smallest kids can put their thumbprints on the tags and feel like they had a special part in the gift-giving process. And teaching your children how fun giving presents can be is a really great lesson for them to be learning. No lectures necessary!
Supplies:

2. Paint (an ink pad would work as well)

Some tips for fast and mess-free clean up: Lay down newspaper on the table and use small disposable plates, cups, or bowls for the paint. Super fast to clean up with no mess and no paint stains on furniture!
Directions:
1. Dip thumb in paint, then press onto the middle of the gift tag. Let dry.
2. Use a sharpie to draw a reindeer, Christmas tree, snowman, or some other holiday-related object around the thumbprint.
