Make your own gift stickers using craft materials.
When you give gifts to your friends and family members, you can make the gifts more meaningful and personal by using homemade wrapping paper and gift stickers. Although you can buy stickers at any grocery store or supermarket, they often expensive and can seem generic and tacky. One solution is to make your own decorative gift stickers using a few inexpensive basic craft materials that can be found at any arts and crafts supply store.
Instructions
1. Lay a sheet of contact paper flat onto a tabletop. Select any color or pattern of contact paper you prefer.
2. Place a stencil onto the top of the contact paper, and tape it down using art tape. Art tape can be removed from the contact paper without leaving a sticky residue behind. Select any shape of stencil you prefer.
3. Draw inside the stencil using a pencil, then remove the stencil and art tape. Repeat to draw as many shapes on the surface of the contact paper as you like.
4. Cut out each stenciled shape using pinking shears, which will cut with a scalloped edging. Place the shapes onto a flat surface.
5. Decorate the surface of each shape using colorful paint pens and glitter glue. Add designs such as swirls, dots or spirals. Allow the paint and glue to dry for 30 minutes before using the homemade gift stickers.
