DIY Project: Goodie Bags
I am a little bit obsessed with this project, as it’s A. Adorable, B. Versatile and C. Wallet Friendly. So, needless to say, you guys are going to love it too!
Here is the breakdown and the instructions…
Materials
Kraft Paper Bags by Your Store Supplies
Ribbons by Crafta
Printed Labels
Edible Goodie
Donation to Charity
Hole Punch
Trees for Life Charity
Instructions
1. Print out custom labels, mine measured 3″x4 7/8″ to fit the bag. On the front I printed an Irish Blessing for our guests, and on the back a description of our donation in their honor. NOTE: I am a designer, so adding the custom labels to compliment my invitation stationery was a simple project. Another alternative would be a fabric swatch in your wedding colors, with a simple tag/message printed on cardstock.
2. Hole punch the label/bag and tie ribbon to fit style (bow or knot). I looped the ribbon to use as a handle.
3. Fill the inside with whatever goodies coordinate with your wedding, we used brownies that were included in our catering and the guests devoured them as appetizers.

So, so cute!
These are adorable! I'm going to have to share this link with my friend that's getting married this summer!
THESE ARE SOOO WONDERFUL! I love the size of the card in relation to the bag! And the Irish blessing is ADORABLE!
pretty cute. you actually could print directly onto the recycled paper bag if you have a top loading printer!
I love this idea! I'm always looking for DIY project to suggest to brides, and this is definitely going to be one of them! I especially like the idea of making a donation in honor of your wedding guests. This is an all-around wonderful project!
I can't believe how simple yet wonderful these are. It all comes together just right. I'll definitely be passing this idea along.
