Tags.....


My Christmas show at Piecemakers Quilt shop is this weekend and I needed some tags for my dolls...something I could perforate and tear off the bottom and still have a cute tag left for the customer....so I bought a box of shipping tags....5 bucks for like 100 of them..CHEAP....sewed a line along the bottom and then added the candy canes and bakers twine...



Perfect...I can tear off the price and still there is a cute tag left and I didnt have to break the bank.....
Now what to do with the rest of those tags. I had seen this idea on pinterest so I went outside and gathered up some stuff and went to town...and now I will have tags for all my presents...


The possibilties are really endless...you can use whatever you can gather or have laying around..and just use whatever ribbon or twine...I used a lot of bakers twine but use what you have.


I think they are really cute and really frugal....and who doesnt like frugal????

Those are great Deb. I keep them on hand in different sizes, and use them for my Bloomies, and all sorts of different things. I love your idea to sew the edge for price, and then the cute candy canes and other little things you tied to them. Love it! Good luck with the show this weekend!

Love the tags Deb...(Gee - I'd probably buy something just for the tag....) ;o) I use candy canes a LOT at Christmas - instant package decoration or bow accessory....Never thought about actually putting them on a tag though....Thanks for the ideas! Best of shows to you! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
