Last Minute Glittered Gift Bags

Last minute glittered gift bags.
It's always a good idea to have a stack of blank gift bags on hand - you never know when you'll need to put something together. But it will be pretty boring to leave the bag blank, right? Especially with your crafty skills!

Here's an easy way to add some sparkle! Read more after the jump...





This is all you need! Aleene's Paper Glaze and Crafty Chica Glitters.

Draw designs on the bag with the Paper Glaze.

Pour one color of glitter across the top and tap it down on a piece of scrap paper to catch the overflow.

Now do a second round of designs, and use a contrasting color of glitter.

Keep going until you think the bag looks done.  Let it dry and then tap off excess glitter and you are good to go! Don't forget you can also write out names or sentiments, or draw pictures and then cover with the glitter.

Felicidades,
