Materials Needed

Step 1: Design Your Pattern

Start by choosing a simple design for your cross-stitch gift tag. This could be a heart, star, snowflake, or any other shape that suits the occasion. Once you've decided on a design, draw it onto your cross-stitch fabric using a pencil.

Step 2: Stitch Your Design

Thread your needle with embroidery floss and begin stitching your design following the outline you drew. You can use a basic cross-stitch or any other embroidery stitch you prefer. Be sure to leave a border around your design to make it easier to attach to your gift tag.

Step 3: Attach Your Design to the Gift Tag

Once you've finished stitching your design, carefully cut it out leaving a small border. Use glue to attach the design to a cardstock or card tag. Allow the glue to dry completely before attaching it to your gift.

Step 4: Personalize Your Gift Tag

Get creative with your gift tags by adding personal touches such as the recipient's name, the occasion, or a special message. You can use stickers, stamps, or handwriting to personalize your tags and make them extra special.

Step 5: Attach Your Gift Tag to Your Gift

Once your gift tag is complete, simply attach it to your gift using ribbon, twine, or tape. Your handmade cross-stitch gift tag will add a lovely finishing touch to your present and show the recipient how much you care.
