Gift wrapping is not my thing.
I put is off until the last minute and I do not like the waste it creates. Last year, I did create some pretty packages. This year, I started on some paper bows. I wrap everything is recyclable paper (and yes, I do remove all the tape so I could recycle it) and I save all the tags and bows.

This year, I am stepping it up a BIG NOTCH!
I grabbed a pattern from Go To Patterns for Go To Gift Bags
This e-Pattern comes with:
a quilted wine bag
3 different sizes of gift bags.
and a bonus gift card wallet.
So, the pattern is totally easy to print out and cut out.
I can sew... but my sewing machine has seen better days, but even with that I made 4 gift bags in less than one hour (again, with a sad sewing machine!)!

I love that these bags are easy to sew and you can keep them forever and keep reusing them.
Plus the pattern is great to have for any occasion!
So, trust me..it is not to late...
head over and for only $7.00 (a special) you can grab this pattern
And give your gift in a gift!
I am making a few more bags, personalized with the American Girl Doll's names!

disclosure: I received a pattern from Go To Patterns to test and make a gift bag.
I sewed it...I used it...it rocked. My opinion.
Your bags look so great ... I love all the fun touches you added that really personalized them! Now I'm highly motivated to get sewing!
