Fiskars is one of my favorite brands of scissors, so when I discovered they’d launched a series of Tag Makers, I had to find out more. I didn’t have a specific project in mind, I just new that it’d be a great addition to my crafting arsenal.
Fiskars Tag Maker
When the Fiskars Scalloped Tag Maker arrived I was impressed by the weight of it – this is a substantial stamper. The first thing about the design I noticed is that you can see exactly what you’ll be cutting out by turning it over. That allows you to line up the paper exactly where you want which is especially handy if the paper you’re using has a print.
The Fiskars Tag Maker cuts through paper with ease and leaves a nice, clean edge. Once the tag is created, you can then use a secondary cutter which is located just above the original slot, to punch a small hole in one or both ends of the tag. The guides keep the paper lined up so it’s a perfect punch every time.

Once the holes are punched you can add a metal eyelet (they include 20 3/16″ eyelets with the kit) by turning the unit so that you can access the eyelet press on the backside under the handle. This is the only part of the process I found a little bit difficult. I had a hard time keeping the paper on the tab and straight and spent a lot of time pickup up tiny eyelets from the ground. I’m sure with practice I’ll get better at it.
The Fiskars Scalloped Tag Maker is pretty fabulous. It’s got a lifetime warranty and can make tags from up to 80-lb card stock. The tags are a perfect size at 2″ x 3″ size. Make Christmas gift tags, jar tags, and so much more. Use sticker paper and punch out jar labels (skip the eyelet punch), chalkboard paper, and more.
The Fiskars Tag Makers are available in several styles which can be found at craft stores nationwide and online including Amazon.com
What would you create with a Fiskars Tag Maker?
Make your project even more fun! Buy fun holiday shaped 3/16″ Eyelets for your tags
What a great idea! I love to craft and have so man jars filled with crafting goodies. This would help me organize it all better and be able to find things faster. Thank you for the review!
I’m glad you described the part about the eyelet and adding that – I was wondering how easy or hard that would be to maneuver. It looks super cool, but I would have problems with that. I would probably try to use an adhesive backing – I love that you can create tags for everything.
I’d love to have a Fiskars Tag Maker to make Christmas Tags but would use it year round as a label maker. Love it!
This is such a nice product. There are so many great things that can be done with custom labels.
I could use a tag maker, I have a lot of things that are not labeled; would make things much easier!
Those labels are cute. I have to check them out since I am trying to become more crafty.
I love doing crafts. This looks so cool and so versatile!
I love Fiskar’s products so much! This item sure beats the scalloped scissors.
Fiskars is a really reliable brand. I love how quick and simple this is!
Fiskars makes great supplies, and I love these tags and labels.
The labels are really cute – I will definitely be checking this out!
OMG now I need one of these, they are so cool. love the tags you made.
Very cool and so useful!
Wow, what a neat little tool! I love handmade tags, so I may just have to look into getting one of these! Thanks for the info!
It’s built to last a lifetime and I love that I can use it for punching and adding eyelets for any project
Hmm, I already have a slight addiction to my label maker so that tag maker spells T-r-o-u-b-l-e!
Perfect for Christmas tags.
I love hand made tags instead of the store kind!
My sister would love this. She is into the country chic style and this would totally fit with the mason jar look she is going for.
I would use that all the time. What a neat gadget.
