Make Stuff Monday - Decorated paper bag with pull-out tag



Hello friends! Today's Make Stuff Monday features an upcycled kraft paper bag that features a fun pocket with a pull-out tag. :)


The pocket was from some happy mail I got.... I just cut down the pocket with a wavy cutter for a little more added interest. Gotta say I was pretty stoked that the pocket matched my colour scheme....:)



I kept the pull-out tag portion really simple because I wanted to keep it relatively flat but also match with the overall design of the decorated paper bag.


I really wanted to use this bright orange corrugated cardboard that I've had in my stash for years...and I did! I prettied it up with some vintage lace and pearl trim. You know me, I'm such a girly gal. *LOL*


I went really minimalist with the embellishments here...because I made this bag to house 2 previously decorated items which I shared earlier this year. Can you remember the items based on the colour scheme? *winks*

Decorating a Fresh gift box
Yep, this decorated bag was totally inspired by the decorated Fresh gift box (the orange matches the corrugated cardboard perfectly...:)

Your Weekend Project: Upcycled vitamin container

And the upcycled vitamin container project.:)

Yes, these days I'm really on to the multi-projects in one gift bandwagon. It's a great way to 

1. Upcycle your boxes/containers/paper bags 
2. Stretch your creativity to come up with coordinating packaging 
3. Make the recipient feel special

What do you think?
