GIFT BAG
In the sight of discussing how to gift a handbag, let’s first look at what is a gift bag.
Gift Bag is those bags that are decorated or beautifully designed, especially for gift giving, and can be used multiple times for that purpose.
If you want to make yours, I will share some DIY tips below.
What you’ll need. You will need these:
- A tape
- A ribbon
Step 1: You will need to measure the width of your gift.
Once you ascertain how much paper you need, you can then fold the wrapping paper in half. You can seal it with tape and fold the bottom end up.
Step 2: You will open the bottom end so the inside of the paper is revealed. Then you fold the left and right edges in and fold the top and bottom in as well. Then use tape to seal all of the folds.
Step 3: You will flip the bag and open it. Then, place your gift in and fold the top over.
Step 4: You can punch holes and insert your ribbon to seal.
Other things to keep in mind:
To be sure that the gift bag you create can hold up, remember the following:
AA medium-weight wrapping paper is ideal because it’s sturdy, but it’s not difficult to fold.
Make sure that your bag is twice as tall as it is wide.
Items that are extremely tall and/or heavy are not the best for gift bags.
A piece of cardboard at the bottom of the bag makes it sturdier.
If you notice that something feels flimsy, just add more tape.
You can use the following to decorate the gift bag that you made out of wrapping paper:
- Fun ribbon
- Letters
- Pretty photo
- Candy
