1. Personalized Photo Labels
Print your photos onto blank rectangle labels (94215)
Labels with family photos are a thoughtful way to add a personalized touch to your gifts. Using photos from throughout the year will bring back fond memories during the unwrapping time. For younger children who are still learning how to read, a photo of their face can also be a clever way to help guide them to their presents.
2. Gift Tags with Family Photos
Customize print-to-the-edge designs on printable tags (22802)
Another unique gift wrapping idea for family photos is to print them onto print-to-the-edge tags. A little extra printing space is included around each tag to let your images fill the entire surface without leaving any empty white edges. This allows you to create bold, beautiful tags with borderless designs that will catch people’s attention from across the room.
3. Crafty Metal Rim Gift Tags
Use gift tags that stand out with Metal Rim Tags (11025)

Leftover tags are also useful all year round for ID tags, scrapbooking, party favors and more.
