I found Aunt Peaches http://www.auntpeaches.com/2014/12/painted-gift-bags.html somehow, in some crazy random search ... and fell in LOVE w/ her recycled gift bags. I didn't take a pic of my original bag, but if you look close on the side you can see it's a kraft bag w/ metallic gold dots all over it. (my sister's gift bag of choice for Christmas this past year so of course I hoarded them after the festivities!)
I want to make a stash of painted gift bags for future gifts (this one was for grandkid #7 for her 3rd b-day this weekend); however I really have a problem leaving the other 3 sides in the original print of the gift bag ... this one wasn't soooo bad cauz it was just gold dots on kraft paper .... knowing MY personality I will buy brand new kraft color or white gift bags to do this. Defeats the goal of repurposing eh?
