Wrap Up Something Special

Wouldn't your Molasses cookies from my last post

 look adorable wrapped up like this?  

For the bag on the left, take any tea towel or scrape of material, 

place right sides together and with your glue gun 

glue your two sides and the bottom together like you would for a pillow case,
leaving one side open for your top.

you can machine stitch as well, turn right side out.
If you'd like the tea towel to be a gift as well
don't glue or sew just fold under and tie closed.

For any kind of word on your gift bag
you can handwrite on the material 

or if you'd rather you can cut out a word from a Christmas card

 or print something out on the computer and glue to the material.  

It would be really cute machine stitched around your inscription!
Enjoy embellishing with twine, jingle bells,
a small cutting from your Christmas tree,
cinnamon sticks, pinecones and berries or whatever is close at hand.
