Matching Holiday Bags

Have you always dreamed of  Color Coordinated Holiday packaging under your tree?  Well YOU CAN DO IT!!  "Under the Mistletoe" Paper is perfect for this project.  Buy some Red or Green Foil paper for larger packages and then make GIFT Bags with this paper!!  Your Tree will be STUNNING!!  And you can start NOW!!  This paper is in the Annual catalog!!

I made 4 Large bags and 4 small, and have 2 sheets of paper left.  Retired ribbon was used for the handles.  The Plaid patterns give a more Masculine feel and the Deer are so cute!!  Plenty of Pointsettias and other patterns for ALL your Gift giving!!

I love how the  Cuff on the bag shows off the reverse pattern.  The Large Bag is 3 inches wide X 7 inches high.   I did tweak a bag ( the one with the ornaments) for a Taller bag 2 1/2 X 7 1/2.  You can adjust the size to fit your contents!!

For $11.00 I can make 6 Large bags using 2 sheets per bag of 12 X 12 paper.  OR cut down to 6 X 6 and make 2 small bags per sheet.  Mix and match the patterns and fold over the cuff for different looks.  BUT they all coordinate and will look so great under the TREE!!  Large bags are perfect for Books, Homemade Treats , Socks and so much more.  Small bags will hold Gift Cards, Jewelry, nail polish, Beauty products and Candy.  Use the Squares of paper left over to layer on Full Size cards and Gift tags!

Here are my 2 leftover full pieces.  Colors in this paper are Early Expresso, Night of Navy, Old Olive, Real Red, Shaded Spruce and Whisper White. 

USE your paper......make Bags and Matching cards!  See the measurements and instructions on these BLOG posts.
