DIY Gift Card Holder! An Easy Fix To Dress Up A Loose Present!

Gift Card Holder DIY

If you are ever in a situation where you are giving a gift card, this just might come in handy.

Over the holidays I had purchased a couple of cards that did not come with decorative sleeves and I wanted to dress them up a bit. I did a little brainstorming and thought I would make my hubby a gift card holder decoration.

I did make him a decoration holder, but I also wanted to put one into a holiday card.

How To Make a Gift Card Holder DIY

I had seen聽decorative photo corners used in scrap booking and thought, “This should work for a Gift Card as well!”.

So here is the quick fix:

All you need is decorative photo corners which can be found in the scrap booking area of Michaels (use a coupon). These聽come in various colors like gold, silver, and black. 聽I went with the silver.

Making a Gift Card Holder DIY

I simply figured out where I wanted to gift card to lay, and put photo corners on each end. 聽I then laid this directly inside the card. This trick worked out great and I’m thinking, “Why didn’t I figure this out sooner?”. FYI, make sure you indicate the card value somewhere. 馃檪

Do you use anything to dress up your gift cards? 聽Any special tricks you want to share?

Decorative Gift Card Holder DIY

In the future even if I have a cover from the issuer, I am going to do this. It is so nice to not have the gift move around, or fall out when the card is opened. I also think this would work well when sending school photos to relatives, we almost lost a few in holiday cards because they fell to the bottom and got left in the envelope.

If you try this out, let me know how it goes!

    I have a zillion of these photo corners laying around and I would have never thought of this! You could use it for cash too! Great idea!

    I think that's a great idea and I will definitely be using it in the future. I had to get so creative this year to wrap up some gift cards and this would have been so much better!

    I love this idea. It is so clever and I've gotten such great ideas from it. This would be fun to make for those separated by miles and hard to buy for on my gift lists.
