Plus 4 easy holiday gift ideas!
Tin-tie bags are a great way to package up baked goods, coffee, bread loaves, and other delicious treats for gift giving. Personally, I always love creating beautiful packages, making the giving experience that more special watching the recipient oooh and ahhh before they even open the bag. While tin-tie bags are great for packaging edible gifts, choosing the right size label or tag can be a little tricky so we’ve come up with 4 great ideas on how you can style a beautiful package anyone would be excited to give or receive.
1. Large Label & Handmade Bow
Large kraft tin-tie bags are perfect for packaging up your favorite coffee roast or blend. With this large size bag, a nice big label fits perfectly and gives it that ‘wow’ effect. Add a coordinating ribbon and tie your own bow for the complete look.
2. Scallop Tag & Small Circle Labels
A small window tin-tie bag is perfect for wrapping up your homemade holiday cookies. People will love to see those delicious goodies through the little window of the bag. For this small size gift bag, a scallop tag or small label (like a square or rectangle) fits perfectly above the window. Add a cute small circle label near the bottom for added detail.
3. Circle Tag & Large Paper Ribbon
Adorn a tin-tie gift bag with this free printable paper ribbon, a custom holiday gift tag and some bakers twine. Simply wrap the paper ribbon over the top of each bag and secure with the bakers twine and gift tag. A lovely package for homemade biscotti or another delicious treat.
4. Oval Labels
Decorate a large window tin-tie bag with a large oval label above the window and a small oval label below. Window tin-tie bags are perfect for packaging up colorful items, like clementine oranges. This way the item inside the bag becomes part of the decoration for the exterior packaging!
