I have been making Christmas gift bags for years. But, now for Birthdays, I have started making Birthday Bags (large enough for their gifts to be placed in, of course). For our adult family members, I simply embroider their name on it and they can use it along with the gift. It has become a big hit with family members! Hope this makes sense!!

Great idea - to wrap gifts in a re-useable bag, instead of paper that would just be thrown away. Thanks for sharing, and Nice Bag!

Thanks - we have been wrapping most of our Christmas gifts this way for probably 8 years or so - has saved us a bundle! Hugs, Laura*

I should have added - I always wrap the gift in pretty tissue paper! Laura

Based on the size of the gift these can be used for lots of things. Great way to present a gift.

Good idea! The bag would probably have been gift enough! Maybe they should give it to you for a refill when close to some occassion to reuse for them! lol

At Christmas, I don't always put their names on it. So, they can use the bags for a gift for someone else. Thanks! Hugs, Laura*

Love the idea. I've wrapped sewing friend's gifts in fabric before, but like the bag idea. So simple, and so useful!!! Good job!
