[@StellaMoro]

I have just started paper craft again after many years, Thankyou so much for sharing your talent and skills. I am making these bags for my daughter-in-law’s market stall. Enjoying your videos so much. ❤

[@InspiringInkin]

Hi Stella, welcome back to paper crafting! I hope you do really well with your daughter in law and her market stall.

[@jaynelewis19]

Fabulous tutorial, enjoyed part 1 and part 2, truly inspiring ❤

[@InspiringInkin]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@1970SMary]

This is the easiest fold flat bag tutorial out there. Thankyou for sharing and for the different sizes you have made. Keep up the fab tutorials.

[@InspiringInkin]

Thank you so much!

[@paperplanner7878]

Thanks ever so much for a simple, easy to follow tutorial. I am now making small gift bags, using some cute Christmas wrapping paper.

[@InspiringInkin]

Wonderful! I'm so pleased you enjoyed the tutorial, have fun with your crafting.

[@christinematias8144]

Wow thanks so much how much easier is your way. I love the handles. I did giggle as I have a habit of squashing plastic straws flat and bending them just like you did to shape the handles. Mine is mainly through boredom waiting for hubby to finish his last beer at the pub before we go home 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@InspiringInkin]

Hi Christine, you designed those handles with your straw squashing! Without even realising! Have fun with your crafting x

[@lynnmcfarlin6261]

Too cool...love the handles!

[@InspiringInkin]

Glad you like them!

[@thatssassy9697]

I know I am late to this party but these are awesome! I sat down and whipped these two bags out in no time. Thank you so much for the tutorial.

[@InspiringInkin]

You are so welcome! Thank you for commenting.

[@darniataylor7749]

Wonderful idea! I love having my wrapping paper and gift bags match and this will make that so easy. I hope your finger heals soon with no complications. Every time you moved your finger, I winced in pain for you.

[@InspiringInkin]

They sound like very pretty presents, all co-ordinated! Thanks for your concern about my finger, it is healing really nicely x

[@janicehilton8884]

Wonderful, wonderful! I love them and thanks entirely to YOU, I'll be all ready for Christmas! And birthdays...everything. Thanks a million, I love them!

[@InspiringInkin]

Janice, you always make me smile!!!!! Thank you so much I am so pleased you love the bags! and being organised for Christmas is always a good thing!

[@esthermarialewis5460]

[@InspiringInkin]

Thanks Esther, I am all healed up. Just a bit of a flat spot at the top of my finger, oops! Here is the link for part 2. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZrYZJ6ee62nq8k

Awesome! I've been looking for flat fold bags, thank you! Busy working on Christmas cards, tags, bags now :)

[@InspiringInkin]

Hi Suzanne, I'm so pleased you enjoyed it and it sounds like you are getting ahead with your Christmas Crafting!

[@kayrogers9352]

Great idea. Thanks. I would put clothespins on the handles to hold them until they dry, just my opinion.

[@InspiringInkin]

Hi Kay, that's a fabulous idea, thank you!

[@martamariaca1319]

Thanks a lot.

[@InspiringInkin]

Thank you very much Marta

[@vayes7958]

Ouch... Heal quickly I love the handles on these bags

[@InspiringInkin]

Thank you very much!

[@audreylawrence7096]

Thank you so much for your simple detailed instructions, I love the bags! I made a few last week and learned the hard way that I should have watched one of your videos! I used left over wallpaper.

[@InspiringInkin]

Hi Audrey, I am so pleased you found the tutorial helpful! What a great tip to use left over wallpaper!

[@TastingParty]

I made a bag something like this but because I didn’t want a fold on the side of the bag, I put a fold/crease in the bottom.

[@InspiringInkin]

That sounds like a great plan Debbie! I so pleased you made it work for you!

[@noddingacqaintance]

I love these bags and will definitely be making some as they are so easy to store - please could you tell me what gsm they are - I couldn't find the information on the link to Bird Ballad but perhaps I have not looked properly! Thanks

[@InspiringInkin]

Hi Rita our normal patterned paper is 150-160gsm, so that's what the Bird Ballad would be. We sometimes carry Speciality paper which can be thicker.

[@jillcunningham6423]

Hello, I love the simple and easy way you explain and show how to make them. I don’t have a knitting needle or anything I could use for the handles. I have spent so much on craft stuff lately and didn’t really want to buy any. Can I use the ribbon as a handle on these folding flat bags?

[@InspiringInkin]

Jill Cunningham ribbon would work, or cut paper strips fold them in half and glue them down they will be a bit stronger then.

[@jillcunningham6423]

@@InspiringInkin oh great thank you! Maybe I could put a border of lace down the middle of the strip too. Love love love your tutorials and can't wait for my catalogue!!!

[@InspiringInkin]

Jill Cunningham that would look great! Your catalogue went in the post yesterday, hopefully it will be there soon.

[@rachelbaker2373]

[@InspiringInkin]
