Paper Bags Turned Into Gift Wrap

Happy Monday! In 2009, I created this post where I challenged myself to recycle a paper bag from Whole Foods.

Well, I'm at it again! Why waste a paper bag when you know someone slaved away over the graphic design, the approval, the printing and the delivery to each and every store? {So much work all for a bag!}

This week, let me show you how we

can break down these bags from

Whole Foods & Trader Joe's.

blah: a paper bag

{got to love the pops of color}

Select a section of the bag that's

attention-grabbing.

Cut, fold, assemble & paste, and

this is what happens:

TADA!: An envelope with a handle!

I would use it to wrap a gift card to a restaurant

or a small present for a food-loving friend.

More tomorrow!
