This is the time of year when there are so many little gifts to give: to classmates, the mailman, teachers, and neighbors. It seems like the Christmas list is never-ending, doesn’t it? This sweet {pun intended} holiday gift idea is quick and easy to throw together and the free downloadable holly jolly Christmas printable ties it all together and turns it into a fun and affordable gift for anyone.
Start with clear cellophane bags {not too big or you’ll need to fill them with a lot of candy}, brightly colored tulle or holiday-themed ribbon to tie the bags closed, and lots of jolly rancher candies.
The cinnamon flavor candies are perfect for the Christmas season and the red color looks great with the printable but any flavor or combination of flavors would work.
Fill a clear cellophane bag with the candies, leaving a little space at the top …
… tie it closed with ribbon or tulle {I like tulle because it adds a little more bulk and texture} …
… and then print the holly jolly Christmas printable {click to print} onto white paper or cardstock.
Cut the printable in the shape you’d like {I cut it into a shape resembling a tag} and poke a small hole on one edge or use a hole punch to create a hole.
String the ribbon or tulle carefully through the hole and tie the tag into place, sealing the cellophane bag closed.
In just minutes you’ll have a colorful and festive holiday gift for friends and neighbors or the perfect party favor for your holiday gathering.
You could even keep a bowl of them near your front door and give them to delivery men or others that show up at your door during the holiday season.
However you choose to use these little candy gifts, the recipients will love receiving a little holly jolly Christmas cheer!
How do you open up the printable?

Just click the link in the post … it’s marked “holly jolly christmas printable” and will lead you to the download where you can print it.
I wasn’t able to print the Holly Jolly tag.
Oh gosh, Judy, I forgot the link. 🙂 I’ll blame it on too much Thanksgiving busy-ness but it’s there now. Thanks so much for telling me!
where is the printable?

I cant get the jolly reindeer to download
You might be clicking the wrong thing. Don’t click an ad. Right above the photo of the tag, there’s a clickable link that says “holly jolly Christmas printable {click to print}” … click on that link and it’ll take you to the printable.
This printable tag is too cute! I’ve included you in this week’s Monday Funday features. Thank you so much for sharing!
Absolutely love these! the link above “holly jolly Christmas printable” isn’t a link though. How can I print these tags?
The link is right above the photo of the tag by itself. The link appears in blue and says “click to print” right after it. Let me know if you still have trouble finding it … sometimes the links are hard to see in the text.
I would like to print this but I do not see a link that says “Click to print”.
It’s right after the fourth picture, just before the close-up picture of the tag.
