As fall starts I usually turn my attention to the Christmas gifts that I’m going to make. As I was making a list of everything that I want to buy/make for Christmas I realized that there is a pretty good chance that I will buy someone on my list a gift card. So, since I NEVER like to give a gift card without jazzing it up a little, I started to think of new crochet gift card holder designs I could make!
As I was looking online at different Christmas decorations it hit me (not literally)! I would make a super cute (and easy) Santa belt gift card holder! I was super tickled with this idea and when I rummaged through my yarn stash I had every color that I needed (total score!). This quick to make crochet gift card holder is going to be super cute as a gift this Christmas holiday! Now, I just need to make a couple more so I can be prepared for the gift cards that I will be gifting!
