Christmas bags

[inscotland]

Can anyone help me find little gift bags for tree presents? Just big enough for a minature of alcohol or a candle or a sweetie that sort of thing.

Thank you!

Get a length of wrapping paper, and wrap round a small box, like a box of Paxo of something. Fold over the bottom and glue/tape as if making a present. Slide the Paxo out and there you have.... a brightly coloured little bag for 'stuff'. Punch holes in the top and thread ribbon for handles.

what a good idea, thanks captainmummy

If you have a Poundland nearby they sell a great range of gift bags. The ones to put a bottle in are really good and so much cheaper than other stores.

That sounds fab captain but I really don't have time for it unfortunately. I have 16 to make!

Do you have a cooking/kitchen shop near you?

Something liek this would be ideal, no?:

Meant to add, could loosely wrap the present in coloured tissue if you don't want it to be seen thru the bag.

I think that tied with a ribbon, they would look very chic!

How about organza bags, heaps on ebay?
