Brown Paper Pouch

Do you have a stack of old shopping bags that never really get reused?  I know I do.  But I came across this fun project
to make little gift pouches from old brown paper bags.  What a great way to reuse them them right?  And the best part, you can make them any size and decorate them for any occasion.  This is a simple little pouch a put together.

1. Begin with a brown paper bag.

2. Cut it open.

3. Cut the sizes you need.  For the little pouch above, I cut a long strip.  Make it twice the length you wish it to be and exactly the width you want.  Then, score horizontally in the middle, add Sticky Strip to the edges, and fold.   A fun little pouch that you can add your own personal touch to!
