Isn’t this little gift tag cute? And because it’s a chalkboard it can be used over and over again. It’s like a gift on a gift!
I ordered a bunch of different shaped wood cut-outs to keep on hand. (My source was Casey’s Wood Products.)
I drilled holes carefully in each piece and sanded any rough edges:

As always, let me know if you try one of these projects so I can “pin” your finished product on my new “Sharing the DIY Love” Pinterest board!
P.S. Some chalkboard paints are more porous than others and will result in ghosting from chalk and markers. To remove the “ghosting” simply spray windex on the chalkboard and lightly use a Magic Eraser to remove!

If you do it on a key ring, would the chalk rub off in your bag??
