Going into a new year, we all have goals and expectations. A lot of our goals revolve around wellness: mental, physical, and spiritual wellness. As the year chugs along, we tend to lose sight of our goals. It happens to the most driven and motivated of us. Sometimes we need a little encouragement to get us back on track. I think that the most difficult part of a new journey is that we beat ourselves up and we push ourselves more than we reward ourselves. Rewards are encouraging and we all deserve them once in awhile. I have created a Fruit and Chocolate Basket, featuring DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut products. This is the perfect combination of good and good for you and it's easy to make with these free printable tags.

Fruit and Chocolate Basket Tutorial

Step 1: Print Page 1 of the tags. Click the photo below to get your free printable wellness tags! Just click the photo and it will enlarge and you can print it. Print these on the plain cardstock, preferably white.

Step 2: Print Page 2 of the tags. Now this will be the outline of the tags. This will be printed on whatever colorful, patterned cardstock that you desire. These are a bit larger than the first ones.

Step 3: Put your tags together. Cut out the tags from each page. Paste Page 1 tags onto Page 2 tags according to the style that matches. I just used a glue stick. Hole punch the tags, as needed. Don't hold punch the ones that you're going to clip or tape on.

Step 4: Create your tags. Cut the holes in each tag and paste the tags based on your personal preferences

Step 5: Tie the tags to the products. Use the twine to attach the tags to each piece of fruit and to your DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut. I used cute craft clothespins. 

Step 6: Decorate it. Put the decorative tissue paper in your basket and add your fruit and DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut bags. I did use a small piece of tape on some things to make them stay. That's up to you. With the DOVE® Chocolate Fruit & Nut bags, I clothespinned the tags on because I wanted those to specifically stand out. 

That's it! It's as easy as that. Now, show off your basket and make sure to tag me so I can see how awesome it is. Visit the social hub for more inspiration!
