There are few occasions during the year that are more enjoyable than Christmas. After all, it is a time for family and friends, delicious food, and, of course, gifts.

Here are some of the best printable Christmas gift and accessory ideas.

One Christmas gift idea that is trending this year is the printable sign. Printable signs are the perfect gift because they can easily be customized to fit the recipient’s tastes. For instance, if the gift is going to a child, you could make a colorfully decorated sign and adorn it with their favorite Christmas designs and characters, such as snowflakes, Santa Claus, or Snowmen. On the other hand, if the gift is for an adult, you may want to consider a sign with a catchy phrase. Those with sayings, such as “Home Sweet Home” or “Baby, It’s Warm Inside” help to embrace the holiday spirit while making for a gift that can be displayed year-round. To take the printable sign to the next level, surround it with a matching frame and glass cover.
Custom Christmas Cards
Printable Christmas cards have been around for years, but they are still a great way to make a gift extra special. Not to mention, with advancements in technology, custom printed cards can be made to look just as crisp and clear as those purchased at the store. When you print a Christmas card, be sure to use thick paper, so that the card has the right feel to it. There are a variety of websites that will allow you to choose printable Christmas card designs, but sometimes it is best to spend a few extra minutes creating one from scratch. Even if the custom Christmas card doesn’t have all the flare that comes with a premade design, it will go a long way in showing your love, making the moment more special.
Printable Name Tags

Name tags are a must for any Christmas gift, but rather than heading to the store and buying a bulk bag of generic name tags, you should opt for creating specialized, printable tags. One of the best things about making custom name tags is the fact that you can incorporate any design you would like, from those that are complex to those that are simple and elegant. Not to mention, you can design a special tag for each recipient based on their personality. An added benefit to printing your own name tags is the low price. A bag of Christmas gift tags at the store could cost upward of $10, whereas you can print tags at home for pennies. If you have messy handwriting, you may even want to print the recipient’s name on the tag, instead of writing it by hand.
Christmas Gift Labels

There are certain Christmas gifts, such as homemade sauces, hot chocolate, or pickled products that can be enhanced by using a custom label. For example, if you are considering giving a jar of your special, homemade barbeque sauce as a gift, you should label it with a customized label, rather than using a blank jar. In addition, you may want to add a few lines of print that will help the recipient remember the occasion, like “Dad’s Spicy BBQ Sauce, Christmas 2017”. This way, the jar can be used long after the contents are gone, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Christmas Carol Lyrics Sheet
For many, Christmas is not complete without singing carols. If your family or friends love caroling, then a printed lyrics sheet with your favorite carols will make for a truly unique Christmas gift. However, don’t just print the lyrics on a plain sheet of paper, instead add a festive border, such as snowflakes or Christmas trees, as this will help everyone to get into the spirit of the holidays. In addition, having lyrics while caroling will ensure that no participant is left out. Best of all, printed lyric sheets are affordable on nearly any budget, and they work great as early Christmas gifts, so there will be plenty of time for caroling.
Get the Printer Ready!
Christmas is the perfect time to express your love for those close to you through the giving of gifts, and a printed gift or accessory can help take the experience to the next level. If you would like to create a fully customized printable gift, you may want to consider a printed sign. Printed signs can be specially tailored for any recipient, young or old, and with the addition of a nice frame, they will make for a gift that can be displayed all year long.
If you intend on giving homemade gifts, such as sauces or pickled goods that are sealed in a glass jar, then you can add a bit of flare by printing a customized label. In this case, you should list the ingredients in the jar, along with a message that relates to Christmas, so that the recipient will remember the occasion for years to come.
For those that enjoy caroling, a printed lyrics sheet can help to get everyone into the Christmas spirit, and they make for a unique gift idea. Simply print the lyrics to your favorite carols on a sheet of paper and line it with Christmas icons, such as snowflakes or snowmen. This is an affordable gift option that is sure to spread joy to the entire neighborhood.
Of course, no gift is complete without a name tag and a Christmas card, and both of these items can be easily customized and printed. When printing name tags or Christmas cards, always use heavyweight paper, with a glossy finish, if desired. And while name tags should be relatively simple in design, you can have fun with Christmas cards by coming up with all sorts of creative designs. If you want to take this seasons gift giving to new heights, be sure to consider these printable gift ideas.
