I love giving and receiving gift cards for the holidays. If you want my honest opinion, I don’t think they are impersonal – assuming you picked a gift card that your recipient will like! For example, don’t bother getting me a gift card to Bass Pro Shop, but I’ll take one to Starbucks. Ha! I do realize that some people feel like gift cards are a little impersonal, so I have a solution for you – add a personal touch with one of these DIY Christmas gift card holders. Fun, right? These ideas for Christmas gift card holders are so inspiring, and you can pick one based on what you have on hand or what supplies are easily accessible to you. Scroll down to see them!
