As the #1 requested present, gift cards are popular, practical and… anti-climactic?

 

No way, especially if you get creative with the presentation. Rather than just sticking a gift card in an envelope (ho-hum), turn yawns into squeals of delight with these unique ideas:

 

1. Attach the gift card to a large candy bar, and then wrap the candy bar – YUM!

 

2. Put the gift card inside a homemade duct tape wallet. Don’t know how to make one? Click here for easy instructions. If you want to get really fancy, use designer duct tape!

 

 

3. Place the gift card in a picture frame

 

4. Put the gift card inside a business card case. This Wellspring Flip Case from Amazon.com is darling and is less than $5.

 

5.  Place the gift card inside socks, gloves or slippers. Check out these fun and colorful toe socks from Urban Boundaries for $3.99!

 

6. Hide the gift card inside a Magic Puzzle Box

 

 

7. Set the gift card inside a terra cotta pot with crinkle cut paper

 

8. Put an iTunes gift card inside a blank CD case

 

 

9. Hide the gift card inside a box of playing cards

 

10. Use a Barnes & Noble gift card as a bookmark in a book

 

 

11. Kids (and kids at heart) love bubble wrap! Wrap a gift card inside layers and layers of bubble wrap

 

12. Surprise! Set a gift card inside a Jack-in-the-Box

 

13. Food lover? Place a gift card inside an oven mitt

 

14. Cute and cuddly – Plush animals with gift card holders.

 

15. Add a gift card to a Chinese take-out container filled with fortune cookies.

 

These just crack the surface…do YOU have any other creative ideas to share? When you buy discounted gift cards from Plastic Jungle as gifts, how do you package and present them?

 

With just a little thought and a small budget, you can add personality to your gift card presentation. You’ll have fun doing it and your recipient will have even more fun opening it.
