Show how much you care by personalizing your holiday hostess gifts and holiday decor, made with the help of Velcro Brand.
‘Tis the season to be jolly and thoughtful. While you are making the rounds at various soirees and holiday parties, bringing a hostess gift is most appropriate. I like to make gifts for people during these occasions, and I am always on the hunt for fun and creative ways to show my gratitude. Of course as a working mama, I don’t have a lot of time on my hands, so coming up with quick and easy holiday hostess gifts that I can make come in handy.
My friends over at VELCRO Brand sent me a few items from their holiday line to help me stay organized this season that are decorative and perfect for decking the halls. I decided to use a few of them to make a few holiday hostess gifts and make my offering memorable.
I started with a few small glass “milk” bottles that I got at the Target Dollar Spot. You can use these bottles to fill up with favorites like candy, mints, or even hot chocolate mix which can be used to help create a warm cup of cocoa. I opted for a few holiday favorites that you can’t go wrong with.
Because VELCRO Brand is so easy to work with, it makes it the perfect companion for your DIY. You can use their Holiday Decor Wrap (which comes in different colors and styles) to add embellishments to the glass bottle. Simply wrap the Holiday Decor Wrap around the bottle, cut, and then fold over to secure. Because it’s VELCRO Brand, it “locks” into place without the use of tape or glue!
You can add additional decor like letters to further personalize your gift.
For another holiday hostess gift idea, you can take baking utensils like a whisk, or spatula, and add cookie cutters to it using VELCRO Brand Holiday Ties. Secure the tie around your items and then lock in place VELCRO Brand style.
The possibilities are endless!
The fun doesn’t have to stop at holiday hostess gifts. You can also use VELCRO Brand to adorn almost anything festive, including your wreath. I took several pieces of the VELCRO Brand Holiday Decor Wrap to wrap around my wreath for a whimsical look.
VELCRO Brand also offers goodies like Removable Indoor Hanging Clips and Holiday Garland Ties to help keep you organized. And when it’s time to take down all of your holiday decor, you can do it in a snap without messing up your walls.

I can only do crafts that are at the max, 3 steps, so Velcro looks like it’s ideal for me. We also have plenty of photos I need to hang, but I don’t want to damage the walls since we’re renting.

I am all for quick and easy crafts that aren’t too involved and take too much time. Velcro makes it easy 🙂
