It’s my coworker’s birthday and I was in charge of the gift. When it came time to wrap it up, I realized I didn’t have an appropriate bag to put it in because it needed to be quite large and I didn’t feel like driving back to Target and spending over $5 for one. So I used what I had in my stash of handled bags and the one from Olive Garden was the right size, but obviously not the right décor. So, patterned paper & chipboard to the rescue! Thanks everyone for your nice comments – they always make my day! I’ll have some blog goodies soon as a thank you!

How resourceful you are….and you recycled and saved on gas.
Super cute & what a way to recycle!
Great gift bag! I do the same thing….reuse and recycle. And from Olive Garden – YUM! I wish we had one here in Hawaii….
How cool is that! What a “green” idea too. Now everyone is going to make a run on Olive Garden bags. I hope your co-worker loved it.
Fabulous way to reuse! It turned out perfect.
