Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. How can the same four days off seemed luxiouriously long on Thursday morning but felt impossibly short on Sunday night? Oh well. We did have a great weekend full of giving thanks, celebrating the wedding of a wonderful couple, retail therapy and crafting. What more can I ask for?
Naturally, I'm very excited to be kicking off the official holiday season. That means lots of Christmas projects to come on the blog. I'm putting up the tree, making wreaths, christmas cards and all other kinds of goodies.
And today I'm making merry with a little free printable - tongue in check gift tags I designed so I could get my own wrapping underway. And yes, I was signing Santa Claus is coming to Town all weekend long.
Would you like some of your own? Just download, print and hole punch.

Enjoy! If you put them to use, I'd love to see / hear about it.
In case you missed it, you'll find three more Christmas freebies floating around here as well. This Christmas mini poster, more gift tags and a self mailer card.
What is the weight of the paper you use for the cards and gift tags? I think they are adorable and plan to use them. Thanks for helping me check two items off of my to-do list.
ReplyDeleteI used what I had - 110lb cardstock. But you don't have to use something so thick - any cardstock will do. Or it could be printed on a label sheet and then stuck on the package instead of stringing it.
ReplyDeleteWow I really love those, thanks! What wrapping paper do you show in that photo?

Thanks for the freebie!!
ReplyDeleteLove it - of course!!!
ReplyDeleteThose are absolutely adorable! Unfortunately someone in my family would be severely offended if I even thought of using them and would complain for years about that time I called her son naughty (even though he's terrible).
ReplyDeleteLove this fun tag! You are so kind to share with us.
ReplyDeleteAdorable! Thanks for sharing, Stefanie:).
ReplyDeleteYeah! thanks!!! I'm a total softie when it comes to mailing accessories.
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious and brilliant. I love it. I'm so printing these out for the pressies this year.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Random question, but I love the string you used! Where did you get it? Also, is the brown paper just packaging paper?
ReplyDeletethat is so nice!:)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much- I love what you create!!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are SO cute!! Thanks for the freebie!! Did you print yours on manilla colored paper or is that just the glow from the lights?
ReplyDeleteCool idea! gotta try it this year.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea and the tags look lovely.
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable! Can't wait to put them to good use! Thank you! Also, I've been meaning to post how in awe I was of your Halloween extravaganza!
ReplyDeleteMust be the lights - I printed on white paper.
ReplyDeleteThe string is just bakery twine. I bought a little package of it a few years ago. The brown paper is sort of like kraft paper. I use it to mail stuff.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, these are adorable!
ReplyDeleteThese are so great...I'd love to use them. Unfortunately in my home country we celebrate at the 24th of Dec. so they don't fit for 90 % of my presents.
ReplyDeleteGreat Idea though...love them
Just some brown paper I had bought in a prior year. Its not quite kraft paper but it has the same look.
ReplyDeletecan't wait to use these!!
ReplyDeleteCan this be any more charming? You are so creative Mrs. Limestone,!
ReplyDeleteThese are so perfect!!! I just printed them, and will include in my wrapping post in a few weeks!!
ReplyDeleteThese are just gorgeous. Thankyou again.

ReplyDeleteI loved these so much I made them my own by using your printable. Thanks for sharing!!! I printed them on old file folders and cut them to size. http://leeanderin.blogspot.com/2011/12/gift-tags-free.html

ReplyDeleteI used the tag in making invitations for our Christmas Eve party, still working out the kink but I love where it's headed. Check it out @ http://justinandkelseyroyer.blogspot.com/2011/12/christmas-invitescards-i-am-so-excited.html
ReplyDeleteHow do you make tags like this? Or anything cool like that? I'm so comp illiterate.
ReplyDeleteThese are fantastic, thanks for sharing! I'm adding them to my presents right now! And i am doing what a previous posted said about manilla file folders trimmed to size. Genius.

ReplyDeleteOh these are gonna come in real handy! Funny my post today was titled "naughty or nice"
ReplyDeletepve
I found this via Pinterest and just had to say thank you for the tags. I already have had the tradition for years of wrapping presents from Santa in Brown paper and twine/ribbon, but I've never had a specific way of writing what person they are for. I love this idea, and will be using it for years to come. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you for
ReplyDeleteThanks for providing this download. When I saw you post it a couple of weeks ago, I knew it would be a perfect fit for what I was envisioning for presenting our presents this year. In fact, I actually began the gift wrapping process, and I love how it turns out.

These are fantastic! I also found via Pinterest. I didn't have any cardstock on hand, so I cut up some old file folders and they came out PERFECTLY. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThese are too perfect... thank you...
ReplyDeleteThank you for your creative generosity! This gift tag adorned every gift I wrapped this year (including the one to our dog). I couldn't contain myself so I passed it along on my blog.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you & yours!

ReplyDeleteThank you Mrs. Limestone for the creative tags. Question...how can I change the year on the arrival date? Perhaps I don't know how to use Adobe very well.
ReplyDeleteYou cant edit it. (at least not easily). I may update for 2013 but I'm not yet working on Christmas.
ReplyDeleteVery insightful blog. Would love to read more on the subject.
ReplyDeleteReally informative
ReplyDeleteDo you have them without the date or 2012?
ReplyDeleteI love this tag but I'm wondering if you're going to update it soon with the year 2012 on it? We are sending a little gift from Santa for each of my nieces and nephews through the mail to be postmarked in the North Pole (it's a service through USPS)! I'd love to use this tag this year for our surprise!! Thanks.
ReplyDelete~Kamille
I also would love to have an updated version of these adorable tags. Please, please?
ReplyDeleteThese are perfectly brilliant. Made me laugh out loud when I saw them and will be perfect for my bottles of homemade chocolate liqueur for friends and family. Thank you so much :)
ReplyDeleteThis is EXACTLY what I've been searching for!! Thank you so much for making these and putting them out there for others to use. They are beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI love this tag. So creative! Thanks for sharing. Is there any way you could put an update 2012 version? I hope I'm not being to fresh by asking. THX :)
ReplyDeleteJust updated the file to exclude the year entirely.

ReplyDeleteNo contest....This tag is my very, most, best, favorite gift tag OF ALL TIME. Ever. For real. Love it. I want to make wallpaper out of it, I love it so much. In life sometimes you stumble upon perfection. This is what gift tag perfection looks like.
ReplyDeleteThank you these are great.
ReplyDeletePrinted these out today. They are absolutely A-DOR-ABLE!!!! Thank you for your generosity in sharing!
ReplyDeleteNot to be Debbie Downer - but the popular blog IDEA ROOM just ripped off this tag idea & didn't give credit. Boo. Not good sportsmanship at this time of year. http://www.theidearoom.net/2014/12/santa-gift-tag-printables.html
