The perfect gift tag for a gingerbread man party! Kids love to be crafty. Here’s your chance to turn some circles into cute wooden gingerbread man gift tags!
CRAFT SUPPLIES:
- To recreate these super adorable cookie wood tags, you will need some flat unfinished 3.25 inch wooden circles {I found mine in the wood craft aisles of Michaels, my trusty Tulip Puffy Paint {in shades of white, black & pink} light brown craft paint, a paint brush, scissors, hot glue gun and ribbon/twine for the back.
DIRECTIONS:
- First things first – paint your wooden circle completely brown. Repeat for each gingerbread man you are making.
- Next grab your puffy paint and draw on eyes, a mouth and “frosting” around the edges.
- Once done, set aside to let it dry {puffy paint typically takes a few hours to dry FYI!}
- Next cut off a piece of twine/ribbon to make your piece into a gift tag {or into an ornament!}
- Finally, finish off your Gingerbread Man Face Gift Tag by hot glue your ribbon/twine to the back of the wood slice.
