Gift Wrapped Front Door – with Tag

I absolutely love to decorate my front door for the holidays.  This year though I pulled out my wreath, which I’ve loved for the last couple years, and it was looking pretty sad.  So I don’t know if I was just ready for a change or too lazy to make a whole new wreath.  Either way, I am loving my front door this season!  It’s simply decorated with ribbon.  Oh, and this adorable super sized gift tag to welcome our visitors!
The first thing I did to create this gift wrapped door was put up my ribbon.  Because I have a red door I was reluctant to use my favorite red and white candy cane stripe ribbon.  But I just went for it!  And I think it looks great.  I use 2 strips of ribbon and taped the one that runs across the door on the sides and the ribbon that runs up and down, I taped at the top and the bottom of the door.  I wrapped them around the edges of the door just to tape them.  I didn’t want them to show on the back side of the door.
Then I made a big bow and attached it with a pipe cleaner where the ribbons cross each other.  Follow these steps to learn how to make a big bow for a wreath.
Although it was cute, it needed a little something more.

I had this really thick piece of black card stock that I bought at Hobby Lobby and decided to turn it into a gift tag.  The card stock is 15 inches by 20 inches.  I made a template to cut the sides to make it look like a basic gift tag.
 
Then I used a chalk marker and created my message.  You could also use vinyl or even regular chalk on this card stock.
Then I used command strips to attach it to the door.  I just stuck it up under the big bow like a gift tag on any other present.
 
You can even see it from the road as you drive down our street!
 
Didn’t it turn out great?!?!  Everything I already had around the house so I was able to put this together one cold rainy afternoon in between feeding kids, nap time and carpool duty.
 
I still love my old trusty wreath, but I like this change.
 
Happy Crafting!

      Thank you so much for pinning Michelle! I love that ribbon too. It’s my favorite for my tree and wreath too. You can’t go wrong with classic red and white! 🙂
