Hi Friends! Today, I wanted to share an easy DIY gift idea with you. Sawyer gave these little “mini manicures” to his teachers on the last day of school. I think they make such a cute teacher gift, but they would also be adorable as a bridal or baby shower favor. This is such an easy DIY gift idea…to make, just add your favorite nail polish, hand lotion, and nail file!
If you would like to extend “mani thanks” to some special ladies in your life download my free printable gift tag in the printable library. I removed the wording at the bottom of the tag so you can write in any message or name that you would like.
*Note: The version of the design that is located in the printable library is non-editable and would need to have a name handwritten on it to personalize. If you would like the editable PDF version of this design—with the ability to personalize the name(s)—it is available for purchase in my Etsy shop, HERE.

These are so cute and would even make lovely bridal shower favors.

Thank you so much Melanie!! You are right…a fun idea for a bridal shower favor too!! 🙂
Deanna Papa says
How do I add the printing to the tag for a bridal shower?
admin says
Hi Deanna! You can write in the space below the illustration. If you would like me to add custom wording for you and create a new printable I can do that! I can create a custom listing for you in my etsy shop. If you would like to do so, feel free to email me. [email protected] Thanks so much!!

Hi! Thank you for sharing such a cute idea. I am having a hard time being able to write on the tag though. I have downloaded and saved it and still can’t write on it. Is there a trick that I am missing?
Alison says
Hi Patty,
Thank you so much for your message! I’m so happy to hear that you downloaded the file and are planning to use the tag! The tag was intended to hand write a name and/or message at the bottom. If you would like a typed message at the bottom I can create a custom listing for you in my Etsy shop and add the personalization. Just let me know! 🙂
Thanks again!
Alison

Charly says
Hey there! I love this gift idea! I tried printing from the link above and it is not printing in the same colors as shown in the picture. It is printing yellow, orange, and red? Am I doing something wrong?
Alison says
Hi Charly,
I’m so sorry to hear you are having printing problems with the file. I just emailed you a PDF of the original file. I hope that helps!!
Thanks again! Alison
Lindsayq says
This is adorable! I’m having trouble writing anything in on the PDF format. Am I doing something wrong? Or by writing did you mean, hand writing? I’d love to be able to type something!
Alison says
Hi Lindsay,
Thank you so much! I’m so happy you like the printable! Yes, you can hand write any message at the bottom. If you would like I can create a custom listing for you in my etsy shop and I can personalize the printable for you, adding any text you would like. I’m happy to help! Just let me know!
Thanks again,
Alison
Robyn says
Hi! Would you be able to add some text to the bottom for me?

Amy Belich says
Hi, what an adorable idea. I would like for my daughter to give to her first grade teacher as a year end thank you gift. The last day is this Thursday, June 1st. Anyway, I can not seem to add any verbiage. Would you be able to add: BEST TEACHER EVER! I WILL MISS FIRST GRADE! LOVE, ANABELLE (with the little heart). I’m hoping you can help me. Sorry to be a pain!
Alison says
Thanks so much for your message Amy! I just sent you an email! 🙂
Pamela says
So pretty! Which hand lotion did you add within your pkg (with the black polka dot wrapping?). Lovely idea! I hope to have no issue printing. Thank you!
Alison says
Hi Pamela,
Thanks so much for your message! I’m so happy you found my printable and that you are able to use it!! 🙂 I found the lotion in one of the end-caps at Target (in the beauty section). Also, I just sent you an email about the personalization.
Thanks again! Have a wonderful day!!
