DIY: Mini Name Tags

image
I created these mini name tags for the little ones at my sister’s reception this past winter. As party favors, she had large caramel apples decorated in fun bright colors and wanted to include a personalized note for each kiddo.

So I got to work. I started by sketching out different designs that doubled as name tags as well as mini envelopes to hold inserts for a personalized hand written note. And to finish it off, care instructions for proper storage of the apples to keep them fresh.

Supplies: card stock in 2 contrasting colors, envelope liner (I chose one with a nice sheen), scalpel, gluestick, paper cutter, printer, and image software

I added the colored balloons on the inserts and instruction tags for a fun touch. Since this was done last winter, unfortunately, I didn’t document each step during this project. Here was the finished product! (before hole punching the corner)

Such a fun project! And I loved how my sis wanted to do something so sweet for the kiddos, happy to have been a part of that. The caramel apples themselves were quite scrumptious!
