GIFT TAGS
1. Gift Tags from Magazines & Catalogues
These Earth-friendly tags are a fun way to liven up your gift wrap, gift bag or present. Each tag is made with reused/recycled magazines and catalogs which are then affixed to reused/recycled paperboard (think boxes from cereal, tea, frozen pizza, etc.) and punched out using a gift tag punch.
These are great to attach to any kind of gift, but goes great with a bag of coffee, a box of chocolates or even a homemade treat. Also makes a great gift idea for the sweet tooth, caffeine addict, chocoholic or baker in your life! Learn more on Etsy
