Hints from Heloise - Inexpensive gift bags

By Hklbrries

Dear Heloise: Gift bags can be pricey. I hang on to cereal boxes or cracker boxes when the contents are gone. I cover them in plastic adhesive paper that has designs on it. I cut the paper into 2-inch squares to cover the boxes because it is more manageable and has no air bubbles. When finished, I punch two holes on the two sides at the top and put ribbon through the holes for handles. The gift boxes turn out so cute. Every time I give one to someone, he or she likes the gift box as much as the gift inside, and it has hardly cost anything!
