The school year will begin soon. The first day was something I always looked forward to with a little trepidation. New friends, new routines, and new assignments . . . all can be nerve-wracking. These gift tags will help make the transition a little easier for both students and teachers. Use them to give a little sweet treat, like a brownie or cookie, and get the year off to a good start. You may download your free printable tags using the form at the bottom of this page.
Materials:
Printer
White Cardstock
Scissors
3.5 inch Hole Punch
Small Hole Punch
Baker’s Twine
Paper Favor Bags
Clothespins
STEP 1 Download and Print Your Tags
Download the PDF using the link at the bottom of this page. Save it to your hard drive or a thumb drive. The PDF is a letter size, 8.5×11 inch sheet, with four circle tags on a page. The text is navy blue and gray.
For paper, use a white cardstock. If you do not have a printer, you can also have them printed at Staples or an office store local to you.
Once you are ready, print as many sheets as you need.
STEP 2 Cut Out Your Tags
The tool you need to make these tags is an extra large circle punch. This design is compatible with a 3.5 inch circle. I used this punch that I bought on Amazon and I love it. It is so easy to use.
First, trim the white border as much as you need to insert the circle fully into the punch. Flip the punch over so that you can center the design inside the frame. Then just press down.
You now have a perfect circle. Use your small hole punch to create a hole for the baker’s twine at the top of the tag.
STEP 3 Package the Treats
Fill paper bags with any sweet treat. I folded down the bags and then wrapped blue baker’s twine around the tops. I ran the string through the holes, tied little bows, and clipped everything together with turquoise clothespins.
