Oh, another tip on gift bags.

I use plain ole' brown (or white) paper lunch sacks to give gifts in. Especially at Christmas. They can be easily decorated with paper cut outs, stamps, stickers, markers, etc. This is great for kids to do. I just fold the top over about 2", punch a couple of holes, thread ribbon through the holes and tie.

I always use these for my homemade gifts. Stuff them with individual wrapped mini breads, cookies, candies, whatever you like.

My sis and I did this(cloth gift bags) one year and they were adorable! AND, can be used to dispense plastic shopping bags for reuse, if you put the draw strings on both ends of the bag.
