paper gift bags - make or buy?

[coral]

Hi,

I need about 100 gift bags (size approx 100 x 150 cm) - the type with handles or which I can attach ribbon for eg to to make handles. I have paper which I can make then from if I have to but cannot find an easy pattern - does anyone have one that is quick and simple? otherwise, does anyone know where I can buy gift bags from cheaply. Plain will be fine as I can always jazz them up with the help of the trusty sizzix!!

Many thanks. Coral

I have the mini shopping bag template from sizzix. I suppose if I draw round it and scan it, you could enlarge it to make a bigger template. If thats any help.

Thanks for the offer UCM - I have managed to find a template in one of those creative papercraft magazines!

My friend makes jewellery and she makes her own bags using old sunday supplements and some twine for a handle. they look lovely. She staples them closed if they require closing
