How to Craft Your Own Jewelry Hangtags

by Rena Klingenberg on April 1, 2008

Discouraged by commercially-available jewelry packaging options, Anna Badger decided there must be a better alternative.

“Then, several versions of handmade / homemade marketing materials caught my attention,” she says.

“Voila!  I could create memorable hangtags with thick paper, ink, rubber stamps, and a theme.”

And that’s exactly what she did.

See Anna’s elegant, stylish, and very unique jewelry hangtags in Make Hangtags for the Perfect Jewelry Package.

This article includes her how-to’s and lots of photos.

Hi Anna, I absolutely love your ideas on tags and packaging!Well done for coming up with such an unusual look for your tags and for sharing them with us. You have inspired me to rethink about how I package my jewellery and to theme it to match the mood and feel of my own website. As you say, packaging is very important, with jewellery especially, the presentation and packaging can make all the difference to how the product is perceived by the customer. Also, with us operating in such a crowded market, themed packaging is a great way to differentiate your jewellery from other products. I too love the glamour and style of a bygone age and am drawn to the indulgence of the fashions from the 1920’s. I have been working on a Parisian theme for my stall and can visualise layered tablecloths (black underneath with cream on top) finished with a black ruffle around the edge (must get my sewing machine working this weekend!). My Jewellery is all boxed in black which looks great against the cream cloth and I have made some little black satin cushions on which I sit special pieces of unboxed jewellery. I am now going to finish the Parisian look with some handmade tags, finished off with a black and cream polka dot bow. Thanks again for sharing your inspiration.
