Turning Kid Art into Gift Tags

Eleanor loves to paint. She practically asks to paint everyday.

She creates pieces like this.

I started to feel bad about throwing them away, but I certainly wasn’t going to just save them all.

That is when I had the idea to bust out my Cricut and turn them into gift tags.

This literally took minutes. I picked a gift tag shape I liked in the Cricut Design Space and hit Go.

I also cut out those adorable feathers on the Cricut. I’m obsessed!

You can write on the front or the back, depending on what kind of masterpiece your child has created.

The fun little box was a dollar at Target and the twine is just something I always have on hand.

Cute gift wrapping and you are putty your reusing/recycling. Win-win!

I would love to know if you have found a way to reuse/recycle some of your child’s work?
