Have you ever noticed how little Hanukkah gift wrap stuff is available at your local stores? Don't worry, we've got you covered! With one for each of the eight nights, these Hanukkah tags are the perfect way to add some handmade love to your Hanukkah packages.
Let's gather our supplies and get started!
Supplies
- Cardstock Warehouse Cardstock Papers
- Colorplan Azure Blue
- Colorplan Sapphire Blue
- Pop-Tone Black Licorice
- Pop-Tone Lemon Drop
- Stardream Silver Metallic
- Cricut Design Space Files
- Zig Glue Pen (perfect for tiny pieces and precision gluing)
- Fine-tip felt or gel pen
- Ribbon of your choice
Azure and Sapphire Blue candles, a simple Black Licorice menorah, Lemon Drop flames, and a Silver Metallic tag make for the perfect Hanukkah color scheme. (Or choose your own from our Holiday Collection and Winter Blues Multi-Pack.)
The first step is to cut all of your pieces using the Cricut Design Space project listed in the supplies above.
Once you have your pieces cut, it's time to start assembling. Start by gluing the Azure Blue 8 candle piece to the center of your gift tag. Then layer the Black Licorice base on to the bottom of the Azure candles. Finally, glue the Sapphire blue candle to the middle.
To give your candles little flames, start by using a fine-tip pen to draw a tiny wick at the top of each candle. Then add a flame to 1 candle on the first tag, 2 candles on the second tag, 3 candles on the third tag, and so on until you have all 8 tags. Make sure you add the flames from right to left, not left to right. Also add a flame to the center candle on each tag. We used our Zig Glue Pen for this because it allows for very tiny amounts of glue to be added in a precise location.
Finally, add a ribbon through the hole of each tag. Here is what your tags should look like once they are finished.
We love the way the Stardream Silver looks with the blues and know your recipients will be sure to be impressed with your handmade gift tags!
