Instructions for DIY Name Tag Favors:
- Roll clay out into a ball.
- Flatten the ball. The thinner you flatten it, the quicker it will dry.
- Use whatever shape you desire to cut the ball into a shape.
- Take your letter stamps and stamp whatever you’d like into it! Sentiments. Names. Get creative and have fun with your name tag favors! Use a decorative stamp to add a bit of extra flair, and a bit of paint will also add a bit to the detailing if you’d like.
- Use a straw to poke a hole into the clay.
- LET AIR DRY for 3-4 days (if you need a quick fix, place the pieces into the oven on 170 or less for a few hours).
- After the clay pieces are dry, string a ribbon through, and you have your name tag favor!
Other DIY name tag favor ideas:
- Stamp your guests names.
- Place the name of the season on your clay.
- Make a ball of clay, and press your letter deep into it to give a wax seal feel.
To any of the above suggestions, hot glue a magnet to the back, and they have a practical keepsake for their home!
