I Want to Make Cute Thank You Tags ♡
Thank you tags for little gifts are a must-have item for bride DIY.
By simply adding an original thank you tag to classic little gifts like Martinelli's, Ferrero Rocher, M&M'S, or chocolate kisses, you can transform them into a one-of-a-kind gift that is truly unique and magical.
Recently, Thank You Tags Made from Air-Dry Clay Might Be Trendy ♡
Most thank you tags are printed on paper and cut out, but recently, I've been seeing thank you tags made from 'air-dry clay.'
They have a three-dimensional, puffy texture, and a slightly rough feel, characterized by a warmth that comes from being handmade.
They are not only visually impactful and cute, but they also convey to guests that each one was made by hand, making them a truly wonderful thank you tag.
How to Make 【Air-Dry Clay Thank You Tags】???
Here’s how to DIY thank you tags made from air-dry clay*
① Flatten the air-dry clay using a rolling pin or similar tool.
Tip: Use chopsticks to ensure even thickness♩
② Cut out your preferred shape using cookie cutters.
③ Make a hole for the string.
(Some brides embed eyelets too*)
➃ Stamp a message like "Thank You" onto the tag.
⑤ Let it dry completely to finish♡
Air-dry clay can be purchased at 100 yen stores, and some brides mix various clays, such as wood flour clay, to change the texture of the tags.
(Wood flour clay becomes woody when dry, which can give a natural feel when mixed in*)
This bride used 'polymer clay' instead of air-dry clay.
Here’s a version using colorful air-dry clay ♡ Recently, various colors of clay can be found even at 100 yen shops like Daiso, and it’s convenient that you can freely color white clay too! ♡
