Gift packaging inspiration…
Last month, I was inspired by the lovely glassine envelopes in which kl packages kit goodies. This month, I was inspired by the kraft-colored paper bags! I love all things kraft, and those bags have so many possibilities.
Since the bags are fairly large, I thought they’d be great for gift packaging. The first goodie I made is a gift card/money wallet. I simply folded up a piece of the bag into a wallet shape (don’t forget to include a pocket), and embellished it.
Next I wrapped a little gift with some of the kraft bag, and used kl’s luscious kit goodies to decorate it.
So don’t throw away those kraft paper bags…you can use them for so many projects! If you come up with something using the kraft bags, post a link here in the comments so we can ooh & aah.

Gorgeous! I am especially in love with the money holder – I am bookmarking this for future use. The colors and design are soooo cute!
I made some custom wrapping paper with a kraft paper bag. If you want to see it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/7491197@N03/3103126959/.
