| DIY Monogrammed Business or Gift Card Holder |
Having an embroidery machine is not the only way to monogram. Today, I want to show you how you can easily transform a fabric business or gift card holder into a personalized gift, using baker's twine.

| How to Personalized a Card Holder Using Baker's Twine |
I love personalizing the gifts I give to others. That's why when I had a few gift cards to send, I started thinking of ways that I could make them unique. Since I don't have an embroidery machine, I came up with a really easy way to monogram using Baker's twine.
Supplies Needed
Stencil
Crayon
Fabric Card Holders
Baker's Twine
Needle

| Supplies needed to monogram without an embroidery machine |
Step One
Use a stencil and crayon to outline the location you want for the name or monogram.

Step Two
Thread baker's twine into sewing needle. Note: The twine is thicker than thread, so you need a needle with a bigger eye. Wetting the end of the twine can help stiffen the thread to get it in the eye.
Step Three
Begin threading.
A. Start from the inside of the card holder.
B. It is best to come out at one point and go back in the other. It is more cohesive than to thread in and out on one line.
C. Make sure you end a letter going back inside the cardholder so that you can begin the next letter from the inside going out.

Your gift card holder is complete and ready to give! The best part is, the gift card holder can be upcycled as a business or credit card holder.
What a great gift! Perfect for any occasion: thank you, teacher appreciation, mother's day, bridesmaid...you name it!
Let me know if you make one! I would LOVE to see it.
Happy Crafting!!
