Create Memorable, Handcrafted Gifts

The holiday spirit is in the air! Feeling inspired to create your own gifts?

Whether making handcrafted gifts is a new venture for you (careful with the glue gun!) or something you’ve always had a knack for doing, you can add a personal touch to your presents with free design templates on Avery Design & Print Online.
It’s easy to insert photos, graphics, and text to make each design uniquely your own. Give your gift-giving a crafty twist with these ideas:

Beautiful Bottled Gifts

There’s magic inside bottled gifts that can make anyone smile. Consider mixing together a special concoction of infused oil for someone who enjoys cooking. For a relaxing gift, create a luxurious spa set with bottles of lotions and bath salts. Or make it easier for yourself and just pick up a bottle of wine to personalize. Then create your own pretty packaging with seasonal design templates using Avery Arched Labels to add the finishing touch.

Cookie-In-A-Jar Gifts

The next best thing to biting into a fresh, baked cookie is the wonderful aroma of yummy goodness that fills the kitchen while they bake. This gift idea gives your recipient both. Create your own cookie-in-a-jar, and personalize using an Avery Business Card and then cut the ends and punch a hole in the card for your own personalized gift tag.

Sweet (and Salty) Gifts

Want to give a gift more edible than a fruitcake? Delicious homemade candies are hard to resist. A jar of sweets or a mug of munchies leaves behind a useful container once the goodies are gone, and makes a practical gift for teachers, neighbours, or your babysitter. Try peppermint swirls, ribbon candy, fruit jellies and caramels for those with a sweet tooth, or nut mix and popcorn for those who need a saltier fix. Then create a personalized gift label with an Avery Label (available in a variety of shapes and sizes).
