Wrapping Paper Gift Bags

Saw a video on YouTube on wrapping (link here). It included ideas for wrapping odd-shaped items. One of the ideas was to make gift bags out of wrapping paper. I found the instructions on WikiHow (link here).

I made a couple of modifications. Instead of folding down the "top" just once, I did it twice so that it created a thicker band for the handle holes.


Secondly I made the handles by just tying the raffia into a loop. This actually closes the bag pretty well.

Did most of these while I was on hold with Hennepin Department of Health and Human Services. It was actually very fun. These all came out to be about the same size but the nice thing is you can make them any size you want.
