They say..
There is nothing new under the sun!
♥
So, just when you think of something that is
totally awesome
and
completely original,
like these Hipstagram Polaroid Gift Tags..
you Google it and
{ most of the time }
someone else on our planet of
7,132,214,160.. and counting
has already thought of it
{ check out this site.. it has a real time population growth clock }
♥
no matter, I still think great ideas come from one’s
heart
and isn’t it imagination, intention and the process of creating that matters most?
I think..
every idea has a completely unique expression
when influenced by the touch of one’s own hands?
♥
These are our gift tags this year..
they are so easy and fun to make on Picmonkey.
Hipstagram Polaroid Gift Tags
1. On your computer select: Design and 8×10
2. Select: Overlays: Your Own then select a photo from Instagram or your computer.
3. Repeat until you have a grid that is 3×3.. you can make each tag larger or smaller as you wish.
{ Print more tags with your own photo then Santa will bring you more gifts? }
4. Embellish as you like by selecting: Themes: Winter Wonderland
5. Print on card stock then cut apart, I should have left a larger border at the bottom to look like a Polaroid.
6. Hole punch and add clear reinforcement stickers for sturdier holes.
Just think.. your tags will be different from all the other tags on the Planet!
Just like You!

And in answer to your question, NO, I’M NOT DONE WRAPPING GIFTS!
I think there should be another month until Christmas.. then I would be ready!
♥
More importantly..
If I don’t have the opportunity to pop in and wish you a Merriest of Christmases and a Most Exceptional Holiday Season.. then at the very least I will have wished it here!
I have the best of intentions to write up one more recipe, but I think it is ideally suited to Christmas morning,
so I’m fairly certain it won’t make it to the blog before all the Christmas wrapping papers have settled.
Merry Christmas and Love to You All!!
And special love from Bella too!
Great idea Barbara! I am wrapping everything all at once tomorrow so it will probably take me 3-4 hours.
I hope you and your family have a wonderful and Merry Christmas!
Michael 🙂
Have a fantastic Christmas Barbara, and a very very Happy New Year! xx
Cool idea! Happy holidays, Barbara. 🙂
Great idea for tags! I abandoned tags years ago and adopted the practice of writing the name on the gift with a sharpie marker, elegantly, of course. 😉 This idea may just change my mind to try something new.
Merry Christmas to you and yours, and may the coming year be one of health and joy.
Great idea – I like this a lot. Totally fun. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
What a gorgeous idea to give extra creative presents 😀
Happy Holidays!

Now this is very clever, Barb. I’ve been looking for gift tags that are different than most and these fit the bill. Thanks for sharing a wonderful idea. Wishing you and yours a most memorable Christmas, Barb.
Bella is such a sweetheart! Wishing you and your family a very safe and happy holiday. Great ideas for the gift tags. Maybe have to save this idea for next year as I am also running a td low on time. Take care, BAM
I love these. Your gift tags are gorgeous. Of course you have the most beautiful subjects to work with but would I be out of line to suggest that Lulu steals all the glory? What a gorgeous bundle of fluff. May you all have a very wonderful Christmas xx
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to your family Barbara!
Merry Christmas Barbara, I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday.
Smidge these are so cute. You are so creative! Love, love all the fun and delicious posts on your blog. Wish I could come by for a visit more often, life seems to get in the way of my fave blog browsing. Wishing you and your beautiful family a very Merry Christmas!
I hope you’re having a wonderful Christmas Season!
What an amazing idea Barbara, you never cease to surprise me! I did place cards for a Christmas about 10 years ago where I found very old childhood photos of everyone and placed them into very tiny silver metal frames, it was hilarious! Everyone loved them so I can only imagine the joy your tags brought to your family.
Merry Christmas and a very happy and healthy new year to you and your family.
XOXO
