There are so many reasons to give a gift to those around you! One of the biggest reasons to give gifts is the accomplishment of life’s milestones such as graduation! I absolutely love graduation time and love seeing how excited graduates are to be entering a new stage of life. Since my love language is giving I also LOVE giving gifts to graduates to show them how proud I am of all of their hard work!
So, as I was making the super cute bumble bee gift card holder I remembered that I needed to make another gift card holder for another gift. Since I really don’t like making the same thing twice I was racking my mind what I could make, then it hit me! The recipient of the next gift card absolutely LOVES Pokémon so a Pokémon ball crochet gift card holder would be totally perfect. This easy gift card holder is perfect for any Pokémon fan and can be made in under an hour (total win)!
