More Christmas Tags

I am still beavering away making the Christmas tags.  It's quite amazing how many you need when you start counting them up.  I have bought the paper so I should be ready to wrap by tomorrow...
I used a stamp on the back that say's Christmas Wishes, quite pleasing to the eye.  I loved the idea of recycling Christmas cards that many of you seem to do, I might do that next year.  I actually love plain brown parcel paper for wrapping presents but believe it or not  it's cheaper to buy Christmas paper, so I have opted for a plain gold.
 
I am almost ready for Christmas, for the first time in years.  This wedding really has had me focused usually I am in a panic the last few days before Christmas.
 
See you soon.

Christmas Tags

Well, the Christmas Fair was wonderful on all levels, money was raised for charity although I am not sure what the final amount was yet.  I was able to catch up with friends and neighbors from the village  that I don't get to see very often and I was blessed with selling lots.  One of the most popular lines was the painted hangars and the tree decorations. A very good result all round.  The money I make at the craft fairs buys my next lot of craft materials.  Over the next few weeks I will start to check  out what I need ready for the January sales.  I only have one fair left to do this year and that is next weekend so I will be able to pack everything away in good time for Christmas.  I do need to make some more button trees or something similar, maybe tomorrow.  Today I want to concentrate on gift tags for my gifts.

I have made a start but there are lots to make so it may take some time.





A pleasing overall effect for the tags for the children, should go well with the red stocking gift topper.
 
Do you make your own tags or buy them? 
 
See you soon.
