Do you have a lot of people in your life that you’d love to say thank you to? Are you looking for a simple and inexpensive gift idea for those that make your day a little bit brighter? I’m so excited to be a part of the Give Extra, Get Extra campaign brought to you by Extra chewing gum and Collective Bias. I posted last week about how thoughtful my neighbor was and how I wanted to thank her by bringing her a jar of homemade apple butter. She loved it, and it was nice to spread cheer, but we don’t always have the time to bake up a batch of something. When I’m in a rush or a hurry, or need a quick filler, I always reach for chewing gum. Everyone loves getting a new flavor or just a special treat in general. Give one to my kids, and they’d think you handed them the moon. Extra wants to encourage you to reach out and thank those people who are important in your life. Give a little extra this holiday season to those you see daily and forget to thank: the teachers, the mail person, the doctor’s office employees, the bus driver, the local fire station volunteers. The list is endless! To help assist with your gifting, I’ve created free printable labels that you can attach to your package. The labels tell your recipient that you think they are pretty special! Also, I’ve included a free SVG for those of you with cutting machines, to make wrapping easy peasy!
Who would you give your special little package to?
How darling would these be for Teacher Appreciation Gifts?
As we head into the holiday season, who are you thankful to have in your life? Who could use a simple box that says they are special?
These tags are so cute and can be used year round!
Please use these labels and svg files for PERSONAL use only. They are not allowed to be sold in digital or any other form.
The actual process of putting the packages together are really easy.
The box comes with score lines, so you only need to turn in the corners like so. Secure with double sided adhesive tape.
Each box fits 2 packs of Extra gum.
Using a small hole punch (not standard size), make a small hold on the top fold. Same goes for the label.
Place the brad through both, and secure. This allows the tag to move gently.
Secure with some tape. Once it’s all together, add some simple twine for extra decoration or to secure it further.
That’s it! Easy Peasy! Be sure to follow EXTRA Chewing Gum on Twitter and on Facebook!

Special thanks to #ExtraGumMoments and #CollectiveBias for allowing me to participate in such a fun campaign!

Great question Wanda. I thought about doing it as a pdf, but it is just over the size of a 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper. Let me see if I can manipulate it a bit. Thanks for asking!
wanda says
Is there anyway you could put a pattern of the extra gum thing online. I don't have the right cricut to use SVG files but could just cut it out by hand.I tried to print it out but nothing I tired worked. Thanks for help.Would like to do school staff members one for Christmas.
