How to Make Your Own Cookie Gift Bags


If you love to bake, this DIY was made for you! We’re going to show you how to package your homemade treats in an adorable gift bag, so you can give them away to your friends and family. Everyone is sure to appreciate your extra work and kind thoughts.

Things you’ll need:
Wax Paper
Paper Cutter
Scissors
Hole punch
Cardstock
Crafter’s Glue
Blue Baker’s Twine or other colors of your choice

Things to do:
1. Use your paper cutter to cut a 7 1/2 inch piece of wax paper.

2. Fold the cut piece of wax paper in half, overlapping the edges about 1 inch.

3. Use crafter’s glue to secure the fold. I’ve found that tacky glue holds better than a glue stick.

4. Fold the bottom edge up and secure the fold with crafter’s glue.

5. Cut a 5 1/2 by 1 1/2 inch rectangle of cardstock.

6. Glue the piece of cardstock over the seam on the wax paper bag.

7. Turn down the top flap and punch two holes in the center.


8. Cut a small square of cardstock and attach it through the punched holes with baker’s twine.


9. Slip a delicious cookie inside and give it away to brighten someone’s day!
