Five-minute DIY Wood Veneer Confetti and Gift Tag Flags from wood veneer taping. Easy, inexpensive, and looks store-bought!
Have I told you in the last week how much I love really easy projects? Well, it’s true!
And this DIY for wood veneer confetti and gift tags is seriously the easiest thing you can make.
The cool thing about simple projects made from wood is that they almost always come out looking like they take far more effort than they do.
Which is why these DIY wood veneer gift tags are one of our favorite Christmas gift tags ideas.
My DIY stump side tables are another great woodworking example, if you don’t believe me.
Materials and Tools Needed to Make DIY Wood Veneer Confetti and Gift Tag Flags
To make this little confetti and gift tag set, all you need are:
Real wood veneer edging — A roll is only $7, or buy it local by the yard for less. You can also choose from different wood types.
Heavy-duty hole punch
Scissors
How To Make DIY Wood Veneer Confetti and Gift Tag Flags
Step 1 — To make the gift tags, cut 3-inch long strips of veneer from the roll.
Step 2 — Then, snip a small triangle from one end to make a flag shape.
Step 3 — Next, use the whole punch to make a hole to tie the flags onto gifts.
Step 4 — Write the lucky loved ones’ names on them with a gold leaf pen.
After making the tags, you’ll realize that the confetti practically makes itself with the bits and pieces left over.
Continue punching and cutting shapes to make a full set of wooden confetti!
And if you love confetti, you’ll love this budget friendly, tree alternative Christmas Tree Cones for the holiday!

Wow, great idea and great design! I love your site; arrived for the distressed Ikea shelves and am very glad I looked further. Amazing sense of style!
What type of wood did you buy?
Was dying to do this for this year’s Christmas, but the only wood veneer edging available at our local hardware stores was birch and red oak, neither of which were dark enough for my liking. The link you provided above for the veneer doesn’t show exact pictures of the different types of woods, but I love the color of the one you have shown above–what wood is that?
XOXO,
