Today I have a diy tutorial to share with you to make little paper bags – perfect for Halloween treats! It’s a simple and quick project to make with minimal supplies. I made this tutorial for Halloween but you can make it with any paper you like – these bags would be great for so many other occasions; for giving gifts at Christmas or Easter or as party bags at Birthdays!
You will need:- patterned paper (I used A5 sized pieces of my Halloween scrapbooking papers printed onto 120gsm paper)
- glue
- optional; baker’s twine, tags (I used my Halloween cupcake toppers printed full size and half size)
2. Glue the narrow strip, so that it is on the inside
3. Fold up the bottom of the bag – varying the position of this fold will alter the depth of your bag
4. Open out the bottom fold to create 2 triangles
5. Fold up the lower section of the bottom piece – fold it past the middle
6. Fold the upper section of the bottom piece to overlap the lower piece and glue down
7. Open out your bag
8. You can seal your bag in various ways – I have folded over the top then punched a hole through the bag and tied it with black and orange baker’s twine, with a tag
If you like the papers I have used in this tutorial you can buy them from my shop – my Halloween range of printables includes scrapbooking papers, cupcake toppers, bunting and more. I also sell coordinating baker’s twine.
