DIY Gift Bag with Mod Podge Papers and Snowflake Ornaments


DIY Gift Bags with Mod Podge!

Transforming a plain gift bag is easy with Mod Podge and scrapbook paper.  This project we designed with our new Mod Podge Papers and Podgeable Snowflakes.  Available at most Michaels.  Check out our page at Plaid to view all our Mod Podge projects.

Let's Get Started...


What you need: 
Mod Podge Holiday Papers or holiday themed scrapbook papers
Mod Podge ® Hard Coat, 8 oz.
Mod Podge Podgeable Snowflake or other snowflake shape embellishment
Mod Podge ® Acrylic Shapes - Basics, Flat & Charm
Paper gift bag
Pencil
Scissors
Foam paintbrush
Plaid ® Hot Glue Gun Helpers
Hot Glue
Rhinestones
Ribbon

Instructions:



1. Trim holiday papers into 6 circle shapes and 1 rectangle shape. Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the back of the papers and position on the bag in a tree fashion. Smooth any air bubbles with your fingers. Wait 15 min. and top-coat with a layer of Mod Podge. (Use a damp paper towel to wipe excess Mod Podge.)


2. Trace the snowflake shape onto holiday themed papers. Cut out the shape. Apply a coat of Mod Podge to the paper and position on the snowflake Podgeable shape. Smooth any air bubbles with your fingers. Wait 15 min. and top-coat with a layer of Mod Podge. Repeat this with the circle Podgeable.


3. Hot glue rhinestones to the bag. Thread a ribbon through the hole on the snowflake and tie onto the bag handle.
