Materials

To make your gift bags, the only equipment you'll need is:

  • A printer
  • Some nice paper/card to print onto. I recommend scrap-booking paper, because it comes in great colors and patterns. But you could also use wrapping paper cut down to US-letter or A4 size.
  • Scissors or a craft knife
  • Glue or double sided tape

Print the template onto a piece of patterned paper.

If your paper has a patterned side and a blank side, then make sure you print onto the blanks side! The blank side will be the inside of the bag, so all the printed lines will be hidden.

Once you've printed the template, follow the instructions below...

Instructions

Step 1

Cut along all the solid lines. Then, score along the dotted lines with a butter knife and a ruler. This helps the paper fold along the dotted lines more easily.
