Chalkboard Gift Tags

Mmmm… chalkboard paint.  ::drool::

Yeah, you’re seeing it everywhere these days but I thought you would enjoy a SUPER easy and practical project that you’ll be able to use again and again.

Chalkboard gift tags:
Red-and-Green-Ornaments2

Red-and-Green-Ornaments
Blue-and-White-Ornaments
Blue-and-White-Ornaments-2
- paint generic cheap wood shapes from the craft store with black chalkboard paint (at least two coats)
- punch a hole near the edge of each shape (the Cropadile cuts them like buttah!)
- outline each shape in white pen
- add crystals, pearls, rub-ons, etc. to embellish
- thread with ribbon and tie
- sit back and admire how cute they are

Ornaments-with-writing

You can “condition” the tags by rubbing chalk over them.  The chalk rubs off with your fingers and cleans even better with a damp cloth.   You can use your chalkboard tags again and again and a set of these would make a great holiday gift.  Who doesn’t need tags??

I put these at the top of my "Clever and I can do" list!! I think school age kids would love to fill out the names on these cute tags.

Lynda, absolutely! Depending on the age of the kids they could even do the painting. :-)
