Creating a gift bag from wrapping paper is a simple and creative way to wrap a present. It’s a great way to use up leftover wrapping paper and add a personal touch to your gift. Gift bags made from wrapping paper are also a more sustainable option than traditional gift bags, as they can be reused multiple times.
There are many different ways to make a gift bag from wrapping paper, but the basic steps are the same. First, you will need to cut a piece of wrapping paper that is twice the height of the bag you want to make, plus 2 inches. Then, fold the paper in half lengthwise and crease the fold. Next, open up the paper and fold the two long edges into the center crease. Crease these folds as well. Finally, fold the bottom of the paper up to the center crease and crease this fold. Turn the paper over and fold the top of the paper down to the center crease. Crease this fold as well. Now, open up the paper and fold the two side flaps into the center. Crease these folds. Finally, fold the top flap down over the side flaps and crease this fold. Your gift bag is now complete!
