First you need to get all of your supplies together and decide what you would like to put in your bags.
Find a nice basket/case/container to display your bags. I added some shredded paper that I had lying around as I wanted to be sable to see the bags and this basket is quite deep.
You will need some colorful stripey paper bags.
Then you need to fill your bags. I settled on bubbles, smarties and sparkles for my bags as they were quite small.
Before tying up the bags with ribbon you need to make labels. I had planned on using luggage labels but didn't have enough left in my stash, so instead I cut some rectangles of paper in a contrasting colour. One of my favourite crafty purchases is my letter stamping set. I love the effect created. I stamped the labels and the ever so technically used a pencil to punch a whole in the label.
Finally fold the bag closed and puncture another whole. Thread with some ribbon and tie. Simple yet effective party bags.
They look really nice with the way you folded and affixed the ribbon tie and tag!
