Baged and tagged

My Christmas bags with the gifts inside and the homemade tags. This may look like alot of work, but it is not! The gathering of materials can be done all throughout the year.

Cut out squares and sew in front of the TV while watching a good movie. Just do a few at a time. Invite a friend or two to come and help decorate the bags. Have a little party made out of it, cookies and coffee some glue and alot of laughs.

Tags can be cut out of anything. Old card or new ones. a whole box of assorted Christmas cards at the dollar tree 20 for a buck and when you cut them up you can get 3 or 4 tags from one card.

The foam cutouts I picked up after Christmas at Joann's for 20 cents, a whole package of them. They are large and with a little ribbon and a marker they are great.
Oh yes, and if you sneak around you can pick up the leftover tags and keep them for next year. At least the foam ones.
Have a happy blessed Christmas and a happy New Year.
