Valentine’s Day Gift Bags
Stitched in cotton and adorned with hearts, these gorgeous gift bags are ideal for secret messages, small gifts, or a handful of rose petals on Valentine’s Day!
Step 1
For this project you will need:
- Glue Dots – Permanent
- Greaseproof Paper
- Red Thread
- Patterned and Plain Paper

Step 2
Cut out two rectangles the same size from greaseproof paper.
