Turn Your Wrapping Paper Into A Cute Gift Bag DIY

This DIY gift bag idea is great for presents that are hard to wrap.  You will save yourself money by not having to buy a large bag to cover the present.  Make sure you use sturdy paper or double up the weaker kind.  Thanks to Designer Trapped in a Lawyer’s Body.

Hello friends!  With the holidays just around the corner, I am SUPER excited to show you how to make a DIY gift bag.  This is the perfect way to wrap oddly shaped items, so that you don’t wind up with this type of mess.

I saw a video on Facebook last holiday season that I believe was posted by The Today Show {or another morning show–I can’t remember which one it was} demonstrating how to make a DIY gift bag from wrapping paper.  I was so happy I came across it! It’s such a great way to save money and I have tons of beautiful wrapping paper, while beautiful gift bags aren’t that easy to come by.  So, for those of you that did not have the luck of seeing the video, I am going to share the tutorial with you {I sooooooooo wish I could take credit for this idea, but I can’t!}.  This post contains some affiliate links for your convenience.  You can read my full disclosure policy here.
