Blogmas Day 6 - DIY Gift Bag

'Twas the sixth day of Christmas when you learned to make your own gift bag!

1. Cut your wrapping paper of choice to 
double the length (height of bag) and width 
that you want you're bag to be.
2. Fold the paper in half horizontally.
3. On the edge that is not creased, fold the 
edge towards you a little bit to create a 
smooth rim.

4. Now, fold the edges in and tuck one side into the other. Tape it down.

5. Fold the bottom down and crease it.

6. Now, unfold the bottom that you just folded in step 5 and open it by folding the edges down into triangles.
7. Lastly, fold the edges of this down (shown in 2nd picture) and tape it.

​8. Now, open it up and add some handles, I made mine out of ribbon but they sell handles at some craft stores.
