I made some cute gift bags for about a nickle each

[Horse with no Name]

Just took some brown lunch bags(white would work too...but I had the brown ones).
I took old Christmas cards and used the front. Cut it out, glued it to the bag.
Cute cheap bags.
Everyone at work exchanges gifts with everyone.
It is about ridiculous but what are you going to do?
Anyway...my home baked candies and cookies will go nicely in these bags and make a good, cheap gift.

1. cute idea, white bags would work great and Dollar Store cards

with a bit of the curly ribbon to tie them shut or just to staple on for a bigger 'poof'

2. Those are beautiful. Thanks for this great idea. There are some Christmas

cards that are just too nice to throw away, and this is a wonderful way to recycle them.

3. I really like these

The brown bags are so "country", too. I can see using this idea for the whole year.

5. At a Christmas thing, a guy there had handmade gift paper

Some of it was "tie dyed" paper towels. It was the coolest thing! He kept bags and paper all year. Neat stuff.
