Today I'm working on some Santa-tizers. I need to make 14 of them! I have two done so far!!!
They are easy to make, it just took me a little longer because I was writing down some measurements for you as I was working on them.
These directions are for the 2.5 oz.
Germ-X bottles (I got mine at Walmart). Cut the red card stock 2”
x 11”. Score at 5”, 6-1/4”, 9-1/2” and 10-7/8”. Punch the
end with a decorative tag punch. Fold all score lines inward. Punch
a 1” hole at the end near the 10-7/8” score. Center the circle
in that area. You will want to decorate it before you glue that
tiny scored end to the back of the holder.
I added the white textured piece to
the front. That piece measures 7/8” x 3-1/4”. I glued it in
place. Then I added the square center to the glitter buckle piece.
That center is cut ½” x ½”. The belt is cut ½” x 7-½” I
cut my ½” x ½” piece off the end of the belt piece before I
cut it to 7- ½”.
Before you glue the 10-7/8” part to
the back of the holder, you will need to insert the bottle. Now you
can glue the belt on. Add the buckle. If you trim up the belt a
little shorter, you can glue it in the front of the holder and hide
the seam with the buckle. Then you have a smooth belt all around the
holder.
Add some bling and you are done! My bling are pearls. I used a black permanent marker and colored on them. I was going to use silver rhinestones but I really wanted the buttons to be black.
I printed the words "Santa-tizer" on the computer and punched them out with the Word Window punch. I used the retired Modern Label punch. It's red on red so it's kind of hard to see. But you can see it clearly in person!! Some people add a string and punch the word piece and tie it around the neck of the bottle. I have 14 to make, I don't want to do that for 14 bottles!!!
These are fun and easy to make! If you use a 12" long piece of card stock you can make that little last scored piece a bit longer and easier to work with. I didn't have any trouble with the 1/8" piece. It's up to you! They make great stocking stuffers!!!
Thank you SO much for visiting today,
