Yarn Snowball – A Creative Way To Give Gift Cards
Gift Cards are one of the most appreciated gifts. They are easy to purchase but can be a bit boring to give. If you are looking for a creative way to give gift cards, check out the yarn snowball!
In the past, I have put together Christmas Snowballs for family members but needed to come up with something new. That led me to buying cozy chenille yarn and wrapping it around gift cards to make giving gift cards a little more exciting!

How To Make A Yarn Snowball With A Gift Card
- Wrap yarn around a gift card until it forms a ball.
- Tuck the tail underneath another piece of yarn so it doesn’t unravel on its own, leaving about 8-12″ for the tag.
- Attach the tag and tie a bow.
You could place the yarn snowball in a Clear 5″ x 11″ Treat Bag or wrap it, in a box!
Then, wait for Christmas and watch the excitement of unwrapping the snowball to see what’s inside!

This week, the band my son is in, Stargazy Pie, spent a lot of time at our house getting ready for their next album and celebrating Christmas together.
We gifted them with a Sweetwater gift card but … of course … I couldn’t just stick the gift card in an envelope. Nope! Instead, I wrapped it in yarn, put it in a box, wrapped the box, and then put that box inside two more wrapped boxes.
If you want to see it all unfold, you can see it on my TikTok here, and here is a compilation of yarn snowballs being gifted to multiple people!
