10 Minute Gift Card Holder Tutorial-005s

Making your own gift card holds is super fast and easy. I made up a few just to have on hand but you can totally get creative and personalize them by picking out fabrics that remind you of your recipient or adding their name or a fun design in iron-on vinyl.

10 Minute Gift Card Holder Tutorial-006s

Start off with two pieces of fabric 5 X 9 inches each.
With right sides together sew around all the edges with a 3/8 inch seam allowance leaving a small gap at the bottom edge of of of the long sides.
Turn right side out and Iron.
Fold the edges up and pin. I like to hold a gift card or credit card just for the right side to gauge how much of a fold to take (about 2 inches).
Sew along both long sides making sure to back stitch.
Tie fill with a gift card and time with some ribbon or trim and gift.
