Paper bag
Let’s start with the packaging, which is most pleasant to remove from the gift – from the classic, so pleasantly rustling paper bag. We offer ideas on how to hide a gift.
- If the holiday memento fits in a box, you can simply glue it over with beautiful paper. You don’t need anything other than double-sided tape to get it tidy..
- Nobody forbids moving away from the traditional rectangular shape and making a bag out of paper. Simply place your gift in the center of a square piece of paper and connect all four corners on top using a ribbon, elastic band, or bow. It will turn out to be a kind of bag. The option is simple, but due to an interesting print on paper it can look very impressive.
- If it is important for you that the gift keeps its shape, but making a rigid frame out of paper is problematic, use a basket or the bottom of a regular box in the base, leaving the top open so that the package can be shaped like a bag.
- Recently, regular, non-branded craft ready-made gift bags have become popular. They come in different sizes and are very easy to decorate. You can decorate the surface with a suitable size ikebana made of branches, balls and ribbons, you can apply some kind of pattern or decorate the bag with ribbons made from natural fabrics.
Cloth bag
Paper is a great option, but not the only one. Some people choose textile packaging for decoration: fleece, silk, velvet. This is a fairly economical and convenient option. It is difficult to break such a container ahead of time, it does not shine through, nothing will happen to it, even if it gets wet, but the options for colors and textures for fabric bags simply cannot be enumerated! Consider some types of work with fabric bags.
-
If you love handicrafts, you can sew a real bag. The easiest way to do this is on a typewriter, but if the gift is small, you can do it by hand. A simple buttonhole or stitch stitch holding the edges in place will look pretty dramatic..
Make a pattern based on the size of your gift, and in just a few minutes prepare an excellent case.
- If the fabric was plain, for example, a noble red velvet natural canvas bag or a soft fleece – decorate the “facade” with applique. You can sew on a ready-made patch or create your own composition. You can cut a pattern or design from other pieces of fabric. Some create mosaics from buttons, others use feathers, ribbons, or a little embroidery. There are a lot of options, it all depends on your free time and skill.
- If sewing is not a strong point, but you still want to use weaving for finishing, do not worry, you can make a bag using fabric and any ribbon. There are two options. First: by analogy with paper, choose a piece of fabric that fits your gift, put the present in the center, connect the 4 ends of the package (or tighten the edges up if you cut a circle) and tie the structure on a tight knot, gently straightening the folds. Second: wrap the gift like a candy. You also place the main content in the center of the fabric, but closer to one of the edges, and roll the gift like dough..
All that remains is to tie the packaging on both sides to fix the item inside..
Knitted pouch
The last packaging option that I would like to talk about is a crocheted or knitted bag. Here you will need a certain amount of skill, but such a bag is already a gift in itself. It is more difficult to make such packaging than from fabric, but you must admit that it is pleasant for loved ones to try.
If you do not know how to knit, but the idea requires it, you will find many master classes online where you can learn how to make simple forms of elementary knitting in a few minutes.
Start lightly – try making a solid color bag. The knitted bag looks really original, it gives off a special festive mood, so this packaging is worth the effort. You can decorate it not only with a pattern, but also with all of the above finishing elements..
Do not be afraid to be creative, the holidays are made for a special mood!
Decorating ideas
A little higher, you could already find several ideas, but let’s dwell on the finish in a little more detail..
- The first option is applique. It can be made from fabric, buttons, paper, dyed or natural cotton wool. All the materials at hand can easily turn into finishing materials if you have inspiration.
- The second option is Christmas tree decorations. Small balls, bells and bells, beautiful fishnet figurines that can be hung on a string that fits a bag.
- Another way to be original is to use sweets or cookies in the decoration. This is not only beautiful, but also delicious packaging, which children will be especially delighted with..
- Use beads or beads to decorate. Make embroidery or, using large beads, supplement the usual tape that secures the package.
- Self-adhesive rhinestones can be used for packaging. This is an elementary finishing method that does not require any special skills, in addition, rhinestones can often be found in a format where they are already sold in the form of a specific pattern, for example, a snowflake or a herringbone..
- Nowadays, sacks of burlap are often made, it can be very beautifully decorated with natural spruce branches and cones, or you can make a kind of ikebana. In this type of design, it will be appropriate to use any natural elements, from flowers to dry twigs tied with ordinary twine..

Ideas for creativity
Sew cute long ears to your bag to create bunny bags.
If the fabric is used with a pronounced print, then the decor should be minimal. Use plain, plain ribbon or twine.
Having mastered the technique of sewing a simple bag, you can turn ordinary pouches into a handbag or backpack.
Sewing a bag is a simple task. Decorate as you like. And these examples will help you make original gift wrapping that everyone will like..
Style and decor
It is better to decorate the bag in advance, while the details of the bag are not yet sewn.
You can use embroidery as a decoration. Even the simplest cross-stitch pattern will make your bag unique. What to say about complex satin stitch embroidery. You can also make a three-dimensional composition using satin ribbons. The result is an iridescent relief embroidery. Embroidered floral motifs look great.
Bright beads, sequins, rhinestones can be an interesting addition to the decoration – whatever your imagination wishes.
A stencil is also used for decoration. Having previously fixed it on the product, acrylic paints are applied. Thanks to this simple method, you can get an interesting floral ornament or even inscriptions. You can use lace as a stencil.
A small bunch of dry twigs or even berries will add zest to the gift bag. Lavender or lemon balm is great.
Material selection
Before you sew a bag with ties, you need to decide on the fabric. The most elegant and most suitable for packaging is organza. However, organza bags are a little more difficult to sew than other materials (cotton, linen, wool or synthetics). This fabric “floats” and constantly crumbles. This means that all the seams must first be carefully basted and ironed, and only then sewn on a typewriter. In addition, the organza is transparent, so all the edges will have to be carefully processed with an overlock or small zigzag..
If the craftswoman is frightened by such difficulties, you can perfectly do with a beautiful cotton fabric. Now the stores sell a variety of materials with amazing colors. The best part is that many of them can be bought in pieces from 30 cm.This is enough for several bags of the same or different sizes..
What you need for sewing
To make gift wrapping, you should prepare:
- Textile.
- Threads in color or contrasting (in accordance with the plans of the craftswoman).
- Igloo, scissors and tape measure.
- Beautiful cord or ribbon.
- Decorative items: appliques, beads, embroidery threads and other materials.
Any bag pattern is a rectangle. The length of its sides varies depending on what size of the item is planned. The selected fabric for the pouches is very convenient to cut.
If a craftswoman needs several of the same products, she can speed up the process by automating each step. For example, you should cut out several rectangles at once, then baste them all, sew, iron and supply with laces.
If we are talking about the manufacture of embroidered tops, then the decor should be taken care of even before stitching the bag with ties. The embroidery is performed on the cut rectangle, otherwise it will be very inconvenient to do it later..
Making strings
When we sew a bag with ties, you need not only to pay attention to the product itself, but also to the selection or manufacture of ties. The options for making the ties depend on the base material:
- Nylon or satin ribbons only require processing in the cut area. It is enough to singe the tips with matches.
- You can use jute, yarn, rope as a tie. The edges of such ties can be simply tied with a knot..
- Braided laces and guipure ribbons can also be actively used as ties..
Strings
The finished tie is inserted into the drawstring and fixed with a button, a button or a special clip.
If you use a step-by-step algorithm for making a bag, then there will be no problems with sewing the product. Usually the work comes down to sewing the sides of the rectangular base and fixing the tie outside the body or in a specially made drawstring. If you choose the right algorithm of work, then there will be no problems.
Preparation for work
So that a novice seamstress does not have any questions about how to sew a bag for herbs, gifts or cereals, it is worth using ready-made master classes with a partial description. First you need to prepare sewing equipment and pick up a sketch, only then you can get to work.
Making aromatic herbs bags
Sewing bags for herbs with your own hands, the patterns of which are not difficult, can be done pretty quickly. Depending on the type of herbs stored in the bag, you need to immediately decide on whether to prepare double or single bases for sewing.

The principle of making a herbal pouch:
- Draw a sketch of the future product, which will indicate the approximate dimensions of the workpiece.

- Cut fabric blanks. It is advisable to overlay the slices. If the fabric contains synthetic fibers, then the disheveled threads can simply be scorched.
- Fold rectangle overlapping edges evenly. Secure the shape with safety pins.
- Sew with any suitable stitching on the edge.
- Turn out the finished base. To give some volume and aesthetics, you can make a small lapel at the top.
