Christmas gift tags really are the finishing touch to your wrapping efforts.
I love using tags and ribbon, but I think it’s important to find tags that complete the look I’m going for, otherwise they look as if I’ve stuck them on as an afterthought.
Tags are essential if you’re taking part in Secret Santa too.
Some believe the first Secret Santa was St Nicholas, and today, even kids get in on the act of learning more about the tradition.
Trouble is, there are so many gift tags you can get – so many designs, styles, and ideas, it’s hard to know which ones are best to get.
I’ll make this easier for you here by covering my recommendations for:
- Secret Santa gift tags
- Kraft gift tags
- Funny gift tags
- And my favorite gift tag design
If you’re ready to discover the best, check these out and forget about the embarrassment of choosing gift tags that grab people’s attention for a host of bad reasons!

They’ve got some great features too:

I like these as they’re supplied on a handy roll, and there are several designs included that all feature Santa himself.
He’s quite the master of disguise too, wearing reindeer antlers, glasses, and even a string of Christmas lights!
There are 600 labels on this roll as well, so it’s the gift to yourself that really will keep on giving, this year and beyond.

You still get 60 in the pack, so you can use them for friends, family, and anyone else you’re buying for.
There are six classic designs, and the pack contains a roll of red ribbon to finish each tag with – just perfect!

Roll of Christmas Kraft Stickers
If you get a little frustrated with twine or string on the gift tags, this is the ideal alternative – a roll of 720 Christmas Kraft stickers in assorted designs.
Super handy to have if you’ve got a box of Christmas wrapping accessories like I have, and they don’t take up tons or space or get creased in there either.
The classic designs look cool and each tag has enough room to write the name of the person receiving the gift (I often use silver or gold pens to do this, just to give you a handy tip).
Funny Christmas Gift Tags (Best Options)
100 Funny Christmas Message Gift Tags
I love the messages on all these, and honestly, I can think of at least one person who would suit each of these messages!
They’re really eye-catching, and I think if you went for green or red gift wrap, these would complement that color choice perfectly.
- 10 messages
- 10 tags in each design
- String supplied to attach to each tag
Dare you use these tags this year to see who really has a sense of humor?

This pack has 100 gift tag designs, but this time you get 25 messages to choose from, so there are four of each one to use.
It’s hard to choose a favorite, but I think this would be it: “This was the best I could do on Christmas Eve!”
Christmas Candy Gift Tags (Best Options)
46pc Wooden Candy Cane Tags
If you love wrapping your gifts with a personal touch like I do, these tags are sure to fit the bill.
They all have that famous candy cane style, and they’re made from wood too, so you can add a message and it can even double as a tree decoration after.
You get 46 tags in the pack and they’re great value for money.
Who knows, it might even become a festive tradition for you to use wooden tags in future festive seasons too.
Candy Cane Shaped Gift Tags
Ah, the classic candy cane style is totally irresistible!
Each candy cane tag has a string attached at the top curve of the cane, so you won’t need to worry about searching around for any of that.
They measure a solid 2.5in by 2.5in, so there’s plenty of room to write a message to the gift recipient too.
