Astonishing Sam that you can see a photo of what is a complex shaped bag from almost 200 years ago and you can work out how to make it from paper… and then show us how to do it. How much time must it take you to work it all out?? Thank you so much for taking all that time to share this wonderful project. ❤😘

[@dianec3279]

These are darling! Absolutely love the little pumpkins inside. I’m thinking Christmas with little snowballs inside, or ornaments. St Patrick’s Day with chocolate gold coins! A baby shower with little rattles! OMG, the possibilities are endless. Fantastic job!

[@carmenvogels-aagaard5559]

Stunning gift Bag. So incredibly creative. Wonderful gift with Christmas too.

[@melissaverboom3542]

Another great 3D project! Love it! And the pumpkins are so simple but clever! Will do this with my kid. Thanks Sam! 😃

[@karenjeffery8090]

A M A Z I N G. Your so clever. I love the 3D projects. I will have to steal one of my son's Lindors now to create a pumpkin 😀. Thanks for sharing xx

[@jeanwinkler7885]

The handbag book is back. This is so cute

[@MsDeb1954]

Absolutely adorable! I love this!!! ESPECIALLY the little pumpkins inside!!!

[@josetteforde6817]

Viewing from the caribbean love the bags sam they are beautiful and the little pumkins to god bless 🙏🙏

[@MissyElephant]

Sam I don't know how you do it... but you we are all so glad you do, love it , I wish I had half your talent..... Love the bag and the little pumpkins are just way to cute, I'd love to try it, but I know this is beyond my crafting skills. As always thank you for sharing xxx

[@sandrasimpey1712]

I 100% love this. Would like to see a fastener so it can be carried by just the small handle 😉 Love it, thank you so much for sharing xx

[@ElaineNash96]

Wonderful. I can't wait to make a Christmas version.

[@karenwilliams3311]

I so want to be a hamper recipient of yours! You’re very generous. This is amazing.

[@jwest5557]

This box looks complicated but you made it so easy! Thank you for this fun project.

[@gretchenduguay9527]

Sam you make everything so easy for us to follow. I will be giving this a try for treats for grandchildren. Than you for all your creative ideas

[@andrealavigne7824]

Sam, you are truly amazing! How you can create a paper gift box/bag based on a photo in a book. I'm sure there are lots of behind-the-scenes trials & errors to get the finished tutorial going. Thank you so much for doing these for us! I have been waiting for this one in particular. My mom's birthday is today, though we're getting together with my brother & SIL to celebrate next weekend. I got her a pound of coffee, & hope to use this packaging to gift it to her. I used another of your tutorials for a gift bag for my SIL's birthday last week, & everyone was very impressed. :) So I can't wait to make this. Just hope the bag of coffee does indeed fit inside! Thank you again for sharing. Take care, & have an awesome day! :)

[@MixedUpCraft]

Hello Andrea. thank you for your lovely comments. Hope you enjoy making this gift bag and the gift fits as well 😊

[@sweetsue51]

This looks really hard to make Sam but It is brilliant. I love the fact that you still use the book. Love Love Love this and you!

[@karenreeves3958]

OMG Sam, this is such a fantastic project. I don’t know how you can look at a picture & figure out how to make it, but you do such a good job. I love this treat box style, and the pumpkins just take it over the top. Thanks for showing such a detailed tutorial =& taking the time to explain everything. Have a great day.

[@cammixc]

[@maureenkillen1503]

Fabulous, I make your Halloween boxes, coffins etc every year for my Granddaughters, the oldest one is nearly 19 and she and her 16 years old sister look forward to whatever they get, especially what's inside lol. What's extra nice is that they save them and bring them all out every year (empty) 🤣x

[@marcelladimartino6113]

Lovely bag. Thanks for putting in the time to design this. 3D projects are so much more interesting than card making IMO. I’d love so see you do more, like you used to do when you first started your channel.

[@karinmalling7293]

Superfin ❤️

[@KimberlyInSoCal310]

These gift bags are absolutely brilliant, and so are you! Your creative genius strikes again with the most incredible results! You never cease to amaze with your engineering talent and how you can look at a 3D object like that bag and make it into a paper structure that is a bang on duplicate. I would love to see you make one of these for Christmas; they would be great literally for any occasion. I think anyone receiving one of these gift bags would be absolutely blown away. AND THEN you open the autumn one and it has little paper pumpkins inside with treats! BRAVA! 👏🏼🧡

[@MixedUpCraft]

Thank you Kimberly for your lovely comments. Hope you enjoy making them 😊

[@CraftyLittleLady]
