Love the bag with the little Christmas tree charm!❤

I have a tip for threading tiny holes. I either use the blunt end of the needle used for crewel work in which it's plastic used for yarn. Or sometimes I use a strip of beading wire. I just bend the end up to make the eye as large as I need it to hold a ribbon or yarn to easily thread through holes for sacks, etc. Just mash it down with fingers and insert through any hole. Since you always have a tail on your ribbon or yarn, the material will not slip out. It's magic for me that has limited eye sight. Your demo is wonderful. I make different sizes just like that. Thank you for sharing!

Oh so cute. I have to get some of those charms. It really dresses up any project. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Debra! 🤗 You are a Rockstar! How nice are you? I am curious how long it took. Pls let me know if you have a moment. The most important ? Is what is going inside??? 😁💕

Hey Jennifer! Cute bags. Quick and easy. Thanks for the tutorial. Happy Holidays! 😊

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hi Gail! 👋 I love a cute little bag or box. And maybe using up some pretty 6x6 Paper? 😁 Merry Christmas! 🎄💕

[@judimecham7320]

Cute bags. A bead threader is a must for me!!

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Judi! 🤗 Why did I not think of that? Geez, what am I like?! Thank you, you just made it sooo much easier for all of us. 👍😊💕

Hello, my first time here. These bags are so cute! I make my own cards every year and make unique gift boxes. I use Nuvo glue, it gives you a tiny bit of wiggle room, then it’s stuck for good. I use it on all my makes and they don’t come apart ever. I mostly use Tonic Studios dies.

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Ladybug! 🤗 What a cute name! 🐞 I do like making my boxes as well. everything I can make with A3 paper or small, I try to make. I hope you do better than my $100 cards ($100 in supplies per card😂) I think Nuvo works great, too. I use that more with my layers and such. I think I am a crooked crafter, it takes me a bit to line things up. Nuvo grips and it holds! I do love my Tonic, well, everything! Have you seen that new rocking horse? Oh my! Thanks for sharing what you are up to and working on! 💕💕💕

[@joysenecal6186]

I happily came across you :). I just made gift bags, snowman covers for hershey bars and hot chocolate packets too.

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Joy! 🤗 Ooh, I am curious what snowman covers are? Like a wrap? I will.post my candy bar vid later, please tell.me of it is the same or different. I am always looking for ways to dress uo cash, GC and candy! 💕

[@simplisticthings]

Homeschool momma here too. I say all the time oh and I Homeschool my kids. It's crazy how our brains can teach then be so absolutely blank sometimes 😅. Love this gift bag diy thanks.

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello GG! 🤗 I loved homeschooling my boys. Did it right thru HS. You would think after doing all of school 2x! I would have all that Grammer down and you can forget my math skills! Once we finished, it was gone immediately! 😂😂I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. And thanks for taking time to watch, I know how busy your schedule must be! 🙂💕💕💕

[@sueb1828]

These gift bags are so cute! Great way to use up 6x6 paper pads. TFS.

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Sue! 🤗 I have a lot of 6x6 papers. A lot of ALL papers! Aren't they cute though? And the kids love them when there is cash in all that tissue paper 😂💕

[@jrecm4816]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I am very happy that you are doing these. When things slow down, I will check out your others as it seems you have a couple that I have missed somehow. It's a very busy season. I have been missing you on the chats . But maybe you are on when I'm not. Hope all is well and Happy Holidays! Jean F

[@brendakuder2957]

The bags are cute. I am going to save your video and I will probably make some because I make little Christmas ornaments to give away to family and friends. My favorite glue is the Nuvo glue.

Awesome

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hi Vanessa ! 👋 Thanks so much, I am glad you liked them 😊💕

[@caseyslove]

To get my ribbon or twine through a small opening I use dental loops. Thread the loop through the opening so you can put the ribbon or twine in the loop then pull back loop through the hole and it’s an easy thread through. 🇨🇦

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hi Casey! 👋 I had to look up dental loop 😅 Thank you for the suggestion! I am sure this will make it even easier. 💕

Hello there, Elizabeth! 🤗 Aren't they darling? I am so glad you like them. I appreciate you subscribing and taking time to watch. 💕

[@karenraabis5296]

Great bags! Thank you new subscriber here! I use Art Glitter Glue mostly but I always listen to see what everyone else is using because I would like to be able to run to a store and find it easily. I am definitely going to try these today. I just love this one. I have to clean up my mess though! I almost can’t see my table. Also, I think these bags would look so good with eyelets but I have never put them in. I may give it a try. Thank you for this great tutorial

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Karen! 🤗 I love hearing what everyone uses. So I know what I NEED next 😅 The ONLY area I can use on my desk is the one you see, about 12 x 14 in? Yrs, it is that bad but nice to hear it is not just me! Eyelets would be a great idea, that would make them look even nicer, more polished. I will do it with the ones I make for Valentines Day. Thanks for the suggestion and for taking time to watch. I appreciate, I think everyone's time is very busy these last days of 2023. 💕

[@karenraabis5296]

Thank you for reply! Also thank you for saying you may try it. I am very cautious usually to say anything like that but sometimes it pops into my head and I type it. Merry Christmas

[@aliciagorden4882]

Omg I need to make these for my coworkers ❤❤❤

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Alicia! 🤗 These are perfect for that! Or teachers, Dr office,neighbors...my friend makes soaps and body lotions so I am always giving her some to put them in. Do you have a lot.of coworkers to make for? And what are they all getting from you? That is sweet of you. 💕

[@debbieford6862]

First time I've seen your channel. Thank you for sharing this project. I have a lot of 6x6 paper to use up. I make something handmade every year to give monetary gifts. My favorite glue is Bearly Art

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hi there Debbie! 🤗 Ooh, so now I am really curious...what are some of the ways yiu have given the $$$, always boxes and bags? Or do yiu go really creative? I have done where it was all smaller bills taped together coming out of a tissue box, rolled in plastic wrap in a ball...I welcome any and all suggestions! I love my barely arts glue as well. I am just always surprised by just how much glue I go thru in a year! Thanks for sharing what you are working on and your fav glue. 💕

New subbie here 😃 I love these little bags, perfect for my homemade candies that are customized to what my friends and family request. I also love the little charms. Thank you so much for sharing, your directions are clear and concise which is very helpful! Merry Christmas to you and yours!

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Lydia! 🤗 I am so glad you like them. Ooh, homemade candy! Perfect! I like matching the colors to people and themes as well, one soon I always green, the other always blue! This is one of favorite ways to use pretty paper. As for the charms...I am obsessed 😂 Thanks for taking the time to watch and Merry Christmas! 🎄💕

[@prudencelay6067]

Have you ever hole punched for the handles?

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello ! 🤗 Yes , I have. I just use a regular punch and then push the ribbon thru and make a knot. Just make sure to use thicker ribbon or a smaller whole! It is very easy either way. I just usually opt for quickest and easiest (or laziest 😅) 💕

[@lorraineshepherd5321]

Please, where did you buy the little charms? I live in Ontario, Canada. Thank you.

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Lorraine! 🤗 They are from Amazon. I think I put a link to them in the description, but I am not sure if you use the same Amazon site. But you could find some there, and probably have them in a day or 2 for very little. I have them for lots of different occasions, Baby, birthday, Valentines... I hope you find some you like. And I like them on the little charm dangles I make as well. Lots of fun things to make with them. 😊💕

[@pimfan100]

Of all the gift bags i watched i love yours best but i wish you would explain more. What does the glue look like close up, what is the name of it, where do you buy it. i love the size but i couldn't find it. dont forget for some of us this is new adriana fantes

[@bowler8]

punch holes for the ribbon

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello! 👋 I have done some with the punched holes, and with knotted ribbon. I think it looks a bit more finished but takes a bit longer to fiddle with the ribbon knots. Unless you glue the ribbon after putting thru. Is that how you do yours? Someone just suggested using eyelets for the holes and I thought that was a great idea as well. Thanks for the suggestion and taking time to watch! 💕

[@lucyhare5799]

I have a question. If a home schooled child fails, is it because of the parent ir the teacher? Lolo just a funny l remembered when you spoke of home schooling . Love these bags. I have a bit of 6x6 l need to make into pretties.

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Lucy! 🤗 Oh my word, that was my worst fear! Thank goodness they both have turned out well, despite me. 😂 What a relief! I do love finding things to go with the 6x6 Paper . This is a cute one! 😊💕

[@lucyhare5799]

@@4holidaysdesigns it really is. I am so glad you were able to teach your kids. It is truly a better way. My daughter had a single mom who worked, but most was not as horrible as it is now. And she has no kids so she is good to go. Most of my nieces and nephews are in christian schools, and mothers are involved. Anyway l need to get creating. Thank you

[@KayDerr]

Have you made these gift bags so they fold flat for easy storage?

[@4holidaysdesigns]

Hello Kay! 🤗 I have not on these. Most are used and given away. You could but before assembling you need to do a few more score lines. I have done that, but I like the look w/out the extra score lines on front and back. I will try and get in a vid to show that soon! 💕
