Clay gift tags
22/11/2022
Create
beautiful clay gift tags inspired by retro labels.
Materials:
- white non-firing clay
- modelling tools (roller, toothpick, knife)
- round cookie cutters or glasses of varying diameters
- fine sandpaper
- Skrib acrylic markers
- pretty ribbons
Level of difficulty :
Drying time: 48 hours
- Time to make: 2 hours for 7 gift tags
- Difficulty: medium - age 7 and up with the help of an adult
- Roll out the clay to about 2 mm in thickness.
- Cut out circles, squares and rectangles using cookie cutters and the knife.
- Pierce a small hole at the top of each shape, so you can hang it later. If needed, smooth and round the angles with your finger and a little water.
- Leave everything to dry for 2 or 3 days.
- If necessary, sand your tags with the fine sandpaper once they have completely dried.
Inspired by the photos of the labels we've made, draw ornaments on each piece: a plant crown, monograms, knots... You can draw them with a pencil before going over them with the acrylic Skrib markers.
- Slip a ribbon through the hole in each label.
To
personalise your labels with the name of your gift's recipient, you have
various options:
- Write their name in the centre using the acrylic Skrib marker.
- Stick a sticky label in the centre of your tag - this way, the person can remove the sticker and keep the tag as an ornament.
- Write your message on the back of the tag with a thin pen.
All that remains is to hang these pretty tags on your gifts! You can also use them as a decoration for your Christmas tree.
