Looking for a fun and easy weekend craft?  Well, these Crochet Heart Gift Tags will certainly add a little bit of handmade goodness to your next gift.   They’re perfect for really any occasion, so what are you waiting for?

Crochet Hearth Gift TagsI have wanted to learn how to crochet for a few years.  I attempted taking a class at the local JoAnn Fabrics and that was a bust. You cannot learn how to crochet in one two-hour class and leave feeling confident to conquer a project.  At least I didn’t.

A couple of months ago we got a St. Charles Adult and Community Education flyer in the mail promoting upcoming classes. One caught my eye — Introduction to Crochet.  A four-week class.  I pounced on that! And I’m so glad I did.  

Introduction to Crochet Teacher and Classmates

Carol was our teacher and she was phenomenal.   A woman with the patience of steel and a true heart of encouragement, she seriously cheered each of us on. (Carol is pictured standing on the far left).

First Day of Class

On the first day of class, Carol asked why each of us was taking the class.  I giggled, knowing that, yes, I wanted to learn how to crochet; however, my ultimate goal was to learn how to make Crochet Hearts so that I could include one with each order placed in my shop (and sell them on occasion too).  

By week three I had taught myself how to make the hearts and I was soooo excited.  I made these gift tags and gave one to each of my classmates.  So, today I thought I would share with you the tutorial for these Crochet Heart Gift Tags.

DIY Crochet Heart Gift Tags with livelaughrowe.com

Crochet Hearts

Supplies to make Crochet Heart:
Crochet Hook, size of the hook will determine the size of the heart.  (i like to use an “f” or “g” size hook)
Yarn in colors of choice
Scissors

Crochet Heart Pattern:
getting started:
creating a slip knot, ch4, 3tc in 1st ch, 3dc in 1st ch, ch1, 1tc* , ch1, 3dc*, 3tc*, ch3

to fasten off:
bring your chain through the center and grab yarn from the back,
pulling through the center and your last stitch (chain)

*Notes:  All stitches will go into the 1st ch (the same hole throughout the pattern).  This crochet heart video tutorial by love4creativity was a great visual for me.

Once you’ve made your hearts (or purchased them), we’re ready to make your crochet heart gift tags.

Crochet Heart Gift Tags

Supplies needed for Crochet Heart Gift Tags:
crochet hearts
manila hang tags
to/from kraft stickers
hemp twine
glue gun

pulling together supplies for adorable crochet heart gift tagsThese are so super easy.  It’s as simple as attaching your crochet heart, the to/from kraft sticker and attaching jute for hanging on the gift bag, etc.  

Additional notes:  I cut a 13″ piece of jute to use for the hangtag and you could easily print your own to/from labels out on paper and glue to the tag as well.

Other fun crafts:
DIY Flower Bouquet
Wooden Houses for Decor or Gifting
Chocolate Flowers
How to Make Loofah Soap

assembling the crochet heart gift tagsOnce they’re all attached, you’re ready to gift or use on an upcoming gift.  I slipped mine into glassine bags before gifting it to the ladies at class.  They were all so generous with their kind words.

Supplies for DIY Crochet Heart Gift TagsSo, I got to learn something new, make some new friends, and share a fun project with all of you!  I hope you’re feeling inspired. Crocheting is quite fun.  I’m looking forward to making some gifts for Christmas this year — wish me luck!

    I think it is exciting that you’re learning to crochet.
    I love crocheting especially little things like this…you can always carry something with you to the Dr. appts and any place where you might be waiting. (the dealership having your car serviced, etc)
    these little tags are cute! I need to make some!
    so cute!
    I’m learning to knit…but I’m watching you tube…it would be nice to have a real live in person teacher and other ladies to get to know and have fun with.
    have a great weekend!
    Pat

    I think I’d add a pin back to each heart (stitch on with sewing thread), then punch holes in the To’From tag, and insert the pin through the holes. Then the heart can be removed and worn as a pin!

    (PS — disclaimer…I’m Carol’s sister, and yes, she’s a terrific teacher and friend!! 🙂

      Hi Renee! Great idea… and I love that the heart could be used again thereafter! Thanks so much for stopping by and mentioning that you’re related to Carol — she is truly wonderful. Have a lovely weekend.

    It’s so cute that you wanted to make hearts, because I am just learning to crochet and making little hearts was a “biggie” for me. I make little teddy bears for gifts and wanted to add a little crochet heart to each one. I have been successful in making the hearts, but I’m always looking for new tutorials, and I like the look of your hearts. The little gift tags are so cute!

      Thanks so much Carol! Give the hearts a try! I’m sure you’ll love them and they will great on the bears you make. 🙂 HUGS!

    Love this! I need to try this. I have not crocheted in forever. Knitting yes, but crochet seems like something I might be able to pick up again. I think these make a wonderful gift within a gift!

      Thanks Nicole! I’m sure if you crocheted again, you’d realize what you’ve been missing out on. 🙂 Have a great weekend! xo.

    I was not patient enough to learn crochet when young. Maybe I can make time now. I love the heart tag idea.

    Kelly,
    These are adorable! I’m a knitter with hopes of picking up crochet one day. Since I’m a self-taught knitter, I’m hoping I can one day do the same with crochet! Love the hearts on the tags. Great idea!

    Kelly, these are really cute! I’m sure I couldn’t get a handle on crochet in a few hours. Haha. It took me a few “classes” with a patient woman at church to learn the basics of knitting a few years back. Love the tags!

    So behind on my blog reading – these are absolutely ADORBS Kelly!! Pinning! I would love to learn how to crochet because this post is “Greek to me” but the end results are fabulous. Glad I grabbed some of your cute “To/From” labels from your shop. I think some Spring tags are imminent!! xo

    Did you glue the heart to the tag? and what kind of glue did you use?

      Hi Sarah! Thanks so much for stopping by. I did glue the hearts to the tag — I used my glue gun 🙂 Happy crafting!

    I have now made over 100 of these, mostly as gifts for my children to take for their Valentine”s Day parties (4 kids x 26-32 students). i have really enjoyed doing this as both a stash buster project & as gifts. I left long tails on each one so that kids could use them as book markers or bracelets! Wish I could share pictures of the many ways I have done these. My favorites are the ones where I used crochet threads (or sock yarn) with a second dk weight yarn. One person described who they looks as “a touch of magic” due to how pretty they are. Thank you again for a fun, easy, stash busting project with many uses.
