Use your computer, your word processing software, and printer to make quick personalized gift-wrap and tags.

1. Choose a decorative font and create a monogram or an initial.  Print out on card stock and cut out. Use a hole punch and curling ribbon to attach it to a plain bag.    I shredded old book pages in a paper shredder to make the filler for the bags.  No bag?  Use white parchment or freezer paper as chic wrap. Tie a jingle bell along with a computer generated initial on with ribbon.

2.  Create the receivers name using a different color for each letter.  Print out on regular weight printer paper.  If the box is bigger than the paper – use 2 pieces of paper.  Cover the seam where the paper overlaps with ribbon to hide.

1.  Cut out the design on a Christmas card and attach to a string of beads or ribbon. Tie onto the handle of the bag.  BH&G.com

2.  Cut out a page from a book or a sheet of music.  Punch a hole into the top and tie on the bag with festive ribbon.  Hot glue an old earring or pin to the top of the tag.
