Lee gets all the credit for this holiday recycling idea, 12 months in the making. We saved all our Christmas cards last year and are reusing them this year to make gift tags. We’re cutting out certain parts of the cards, punching holes in the corner and tying them to the gifts with ribbon. I think they turned out well – like this glittery snowman for Baby Jones:

And this cute bear:

We’re using more than just characters. Sometimes festive patterns make a nice tag, too.

I have enjoyed looking through last year’s cards, being a little creative with the tags, and not spending a penny on the project! Score!
