    It’s a fact that my love of opening packages borders on the slightly irrational. Of course, the thought behind the gift is the most important, but the excitement of the whole unwrapping process- from admiring the pretty bow to wondering what surprise is in store – gets me every time.

    I look for a lot of creative gift wrap ideas and Christmas gift tags. Brown paper packages tied up with strings truly are one of my favorite things!

    Naturally I put a lot of time into coordinating with these free printable rustic Christmas tags. They have with adorable lodge tartan prints and natural elements, and I am sharing them with you today!

    2 Christmas gifts wrapped in brown paper with red and white string, plaid ribbon and tag, snowflake tag, and green stacked on striped sheet.

    Recommended Supplies

    Ready to get started? Plaid reigns supreme this Christmas season and I’m loving it. In fact, I did a whole Scottish Christmas Theme this year for our tablescape.

    • An inkjet printer
    • Cardstock or Printable Glitter paper
    • Scissors or a craft knife and cutting mat
    • Hole punch (Save your hands from all the squeezing with this one).
    • Twine or Ribbon
    Free Printable Christmas gift tags with plaid designs and added glitter cut out on white surface.

    Note: This project has taught me that glitter is quite difficult to photograph. These gift tags look beautiful in person! The paper is glittery for a sweet touch of whimsy. I chose white glitter for its snowy effect.
