Project: Magnetic Gift Card Holder

June 14, 2013 by Heather Holbrook

Project: Magnetic Gift Card Holder

Pop on over to the Whiff of Joy stamps blog for directions on making this pretty envelope style gift card holder. I love the idea of using a small magnet to keep it closed.

Project: Magnetic Gift Card Holder

-Heather

I am a big fan of gift cards, I know lots of people find them impersonal but being able to purchase what YOU need or what YOU want is far more logical than receiving random gifts and stocking fillers that you may not use. Especially with all these Netflix programs telling us to downsize, declutter and or course Konmarie everything.

The only disappointing thing with gift cards is not being able to shop for items, if you are like me and enjoying shopping for special gifts then maybe consider shopping for smaller stocking fillers or fun ways to wrap or gift the gift cards. You can present or gift a gift card in a fun and special way too.

One year I added the gift cards to some pretty wide mouthed water bottles that have been filled with little trinkets. We also featured this Giftcard Christmas tree idea on the blog here.

    This card is lovely. I hesitate about using a magnet for closure as I’m afraid it would demagnetize the card’s magnetic strip and cause it to fail when the cashier swipes it through the magnetic reader. Perhaps velcro dots would be safer?
