I really wanted to do something outside of the norm this year for Christmas "Cards". Thinking about it the other day, I remembered this Burt's Bees Chapstick gift mailer that I had found online awhile ago:

BINGO! Everyone's lips get dry this time of year. I started with her idea, then ran with it a little bit. End product? Chappy Holidays!

You Will Need (4 things)

  • 1 Sheet of greeting Paper
  • 1 Scissors
  • 1 Chapstick
  • 1 Masking Tape

Steps (6 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    First, design your 2 1/2" x 8.5" greeting sheet of paper. I am a graphic designer, do designed mine on the computer, but you can get creative other ways if you like! Scrapbook paper, stickers, stamps, etc.

  2. 2

    Cut out your sheet to fit.

  3. 3

    Apply Masking tape to the edge and lay chapstick on top so that it will roll evenly inside the sheet.

  4. 4

    Then roll, roll, roll!

  5. 5

    Write Unroll me with your Sharpie Marker on a piece of masking tape to seal.

  6. 6

    I made bunches and they only cost .65 cents to ship each one (I shipped mine in small envelopes.) I can't wait to hear about what my friends and family think of the little surprise gifts they will be receiving in the mail!

    These would also make wonderful stocking stuffers. Enjoy!
