January 25, 2008, Newsletter Issue #55: Cheap Tricks For Packaging Up Personalized Gifts

Tip of the Week

If you’re looking for packaging for personalized gifts, you don’t have to drop a lot of cash to do it. By getting a little creative, you can have packaging for personalized gifts on a budget. Here are some ideas to get you started.

Personalized Photo Gift Bags – You don’t have to go through the trouble of ordering gift bags in bulk to personalize them. If you’ve got just a few, why not create personalized photo gift bags? Take a solid colored gift bag and affix a photo with tacky glue. Use a sheet of colored craft paper to cut out a “frame” for the photo. Glue it on and you’ve got an instant personalized photo gift bag.

“Monogrammed” Stencil Tote – This is a cute addition to any light-colored cotton tote bag. You can create a “monogram” with your own letter stencil. Position your letter stencil over the tote and use fabric paint in the color of your choice to fill in the letter.

Personalized Wrapping Paper – Take either brown or white Kraft paper and wrap it around a gift as you normally would. Then get creative and personalize it. You can use ink stamps to decorate the person’s initials on the personalized wrapping paper. Use stencils to create a custom pattern or use your artistic skills to illustrate your own artwork.
