Gift Tag or Sticker — Which Should You Choose?
| Gift tag | Sticker/label | |
|---|---|---|
| Attachment | Hangs from string — removable, keepable | Sticks flat — permanent |
| Writeable | Yes (uncoated) — names, prices, messages | Only on uncoated paper stock |
| Feel | Premium, deliberate, handcrafted | Fast to apply at volume |
| Best for | Gifting, hampers, artisan products | Sealing, flat-surface branding, shipping |
Many brands use both: a sticker to seal the tissue paper, a tag on the handle or ribbon. See our custom stickers to build the set.
Who Uses Them
Boutiques and gift shops tagging products; hamper makers and florists; candle, soap and jewellery makers at markets; hospitality gift sets; charities and event goody bags.
Artwork Requirements
Supply a print-ready PDF in CMYK at 300 DPI with 3mm bleed. Keep text clear of the string hole at the top of the tag.
FAQs
Can I write on the gift tags? Yes — uncoated stock takes pen cleanly for names and messages. One caveat: foiled areas are sealed and won't accept pen, so keep foil away from spaces meant for writing.
Does the string come attached? No — it's supplied separately so tags ship flat without tangling, and it keeps costs down. Threading takes seconds.
What size are they? 55 × 85mm as standard.
Swing or parcel tag? Both formats available.
Foil available? Yes on laminated stock — popular for Christmas and premium ranges.
Single or double-sided? Both — care instructions or a message on the back works well.
