VINTAGE SPOON GIFT TAGS

Here is a simple and fun idea for your Christmas gift tags.....
look for Christmas related vintage cutlery at thrift stores through the year, drill a small hole and loop some ribbon through and tie to a gift.
You can use metal stamps to etch names in the cutlery or alternatively use a sharpie.
Oh sooooo cold here on the West Coast....I'm afraid we really aren't used to it!!!
Hoping you are all keeping warm!

  3. These spoon tags are very cute! Great idea. YES it is COLD here (I'm just south of the border into Washington). Right now it's about 20 degrees with a wind chill factor of zero... and I'm not talking celsius.

  11. I love this idea! So pretty.
    It is minus 13 here, is that cold enough? I am staying warm inside my cozy little home, though. I still go for my walks every day, though, gotta stay healthy!
    Hugs, Cindy

  14. I know we are a bunch of babies! I lived in AB for almost 6 years and they just laugh at us westcoasters.

    Where do you get the metal stamps? Nice going. As I said before you never cease to amaze me!
