Instructions to make DIY Gift Bag:
1. Begin by cutting about 1-inch off the top of your white paper lunch bag. Then cut a slit about 1 1/4-inch on both sides of the bag about 1-inch down from the top.
2. Bend the two sides down at the top of the bag to form the collar of a white shirt.
3. Download and print out the tie and gift tag template. Trace the tie from the template onto the back of a piece of patterned scrapbook paper. The plaid patterned paper we found fit perfectly with the Father’s Day theme. Cut out the tie from the scrapbook paper.
