These bags are totally amazing. I have over 100 journals i have completed in the last several months, and these bags would be a great addition for " wrapping them " to give to others. Every journal will be donated to nonprofits for their raffles, giveaways, and Christmas gifts for kids in low income families. Bags could be coordinated to theme of the journal. What a stunning idea you have made.. Your projects are always so creative and i thank you for sharing your creativity with all of us.
Oh sweetheart I have recently found you and love everything you do. I have recreated so many of the items you have made. And this one is just as luscious. I have to post a journal off today to a customer and have been stressing as to how to house it. This is the perfect answer. Thank you so much for all your ideas. As I get older I have what I call 'old people brain' I used to have so many great ideas and now the poor old brain has slowed down so much that is why the universe provides us with people like you. Not only are you very creative and clever but gorgeous as well. Again thank you xxxx
Aw thank you so very much :)
I really like how mindful you are of costs and how your approach makes crafting both affordable and creative.
Thank you so much!
Absolutely gorgeous bags, I am so excited to make some . I will be putting some pretty scarves and hankies in them for the ladies in the assisted living my sis lives in. They just love receiving little homemade goodies . Thank you for sharing and such clear instructions ❤️
Ah thats a gorgeous idea!! Nothing better than gifting a handmade gift to someone who you KNOW will appreciate it!
You constantly amaze me with your beautiful projects! I have a play list devoted entirely to you and your projects. You are so gifted and I love that you share so freely!♥️
Thank you so much Diane! I feel so honoured!!
Natasha, have been thinking of ordering bags for my products in the shop but now with my roll of newsprint & old book pages 🤦♀️ you have solved my problem and saved me money. Thank you
Excellent!! I'm so glad you found it helpful!! Thank you :)
You are a great teacher. Your instructions are so concise but not boring. I like how you have the notes showing. This is a project I definitely want to try. Thank you.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE BAGS!! Thank you for all of your great inspiration and instructions!!
Thank you so much Jenny!!
I love this!! And I needed a bag for tomorrow. I’m doing this to instead of buying one. Thanks so much!
Yes!!! I love it!!!! LOVE!! I never, ever buy gift bags. Such a waste in my eyes. But I do have a closet full of them from all the presents we get for kids birthdays and such. I just hate the waste.
What a lovely project. I can see making many sizes for Christmas presents. Thank you for showing us.
I love projects that make use of things I already have. This one can go in all sorts of directions.
I think I will also tape the bottom closure on the inside just for extra sturdiness, and maybe put the handle knots on the outside. Who knows? The possibilities are almost endless.
If the handle ends are on the outside, you could add charms or beads to the ends of the handles.
Brilliant idea and brilliant video! Your instructions are so clear and your voice is easy to listen to. Tfs x
I just found this project to watch on our 3rd lockdown in UK . ! I love it and going to start making gift bags for all the family little gifts when we can meet again ! Thank you for this tutorial Natasha , you are so creative .
Wonderful! Have fun creating and hopefully this is the LAST lockdown!!!
I just found this yesterday and were in lockdown here in New Zealand. 😁
You are awesome. Everything you do is amazing. God's Blessings be with you always. I am always crafting something. I have so many grandchildren and am always needing new ideas and am also upgrading my idea's of doings them.
I am making these to hold Christmas gifts! How awesome! And FUN! YAY!
I really love how organized and clear you are, so at the beginning of the tutorial I know exactly what endresult to expect, and what materials I need and what the step-by-step procedure is. This makes it so much easier for me to follow! And also to decide whether I'm interested in the project or not. Recently I saw a lot of tutorials that didn't show the object clearly and I really had no clue what the heck I was watching, that's kind of annoying. With your videos, this never happens! Thumbs up and new subscriber :-)
Thank you so much!! That frustrates me too, as we are all time poor, I like to get to the point quick. Thank you and welcome to my channel!
I could have use this yesterday!
I'll be trying this ASAP!
Absolutely beautiful!
So lovely and clearly a good use of scraps. I appreciate the clear instructions as well.
Thank you Ellie!
I just love all these ideas. It was such a fantastic project. Much better them buying bags for special occasions. Thank you so much .❤❤❤
Just when I think I've watched a ton of your videos and "ok. I'm ready to go here back with my paper art/journals, etc" I have another one pop up and "oh boy, Gift Bags??" LOL This looks great!!
LOVE this idea! It turned out lovely. I am going to make one for a baby shower gift bag with the newspaper of the baby's birth. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Another beautiful idea. Ty
Beautiful! You inspired me to use the classical music that I bought yesterday at the antique shop. May I will recycle some Christmas cards and holly as the focal point. And I love the watercolor idea!
I have been waiting to make one of these bags. Today was the day I made my first one. It was so much fun and I've started on my second one. Thank you so much Natasha I appreciate what you do
Wonderful! Keep going!!
So beautiful and looks so expensive 💗 I’ll definitely be making some of these for special gift giving. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful tutorial 💗
Love them,a great pro jhect for those book pages or newspapers I might give news papers and magazines a go I've got a build up of them atm
You never fail to inspire me🤗Thank you so much! I have made 2 large bags already from downloaded digi papers and they look amazing❤️ I am making to put Christmas gifts in for friends and family. Xxx
Thank you so much Linda!! I'm so glad you dived right into it!!
I love this! Thank you very much. Only one suggestion. Decide your handle length and cut them simultaneously.
Bravo! They are beautiful!
What a great idea for book pages! Endless possibilities!
Loved this tutorial, I watched it on Saturday night, so Sunday morning I made my first and now Monday I'm already on my second x thanks for sharing your great ideas x
Good idea Natasha and a great way to use up those bookpages and extra odds and ends! Love the recycling aspect of this🥰
These are beautiful! Thank you!
Your ideas are just the best. Those bags are beautiful. Can't wait to try this myself.
Thank you so much!!
These bags are just beautiful! Great idea! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Joan!!
Love your bags, what a good Idea...
thanks for sharing your great ideas!! another good way to use those tons of book pages!!
These would be beautiful for Christmas.
Love this idea - such a beautiful gift bag. Thank you for sharing.
I like your videos because you explain in little steps. And because I like to recycle things that are already around in the house . Thanks for your ideas and inspiration.🙃🙂🙃
Oh I'm so glad!! We speak the same language then - I'm ALL about recycling! Thank you :)
Какие необычные сумочки!
Они прекрасны!
As usual your instructions are so clear. Love these. Actually made one this morning. Will keep it for someone's birthday
So darling! You're so clever and I love watching you create,! TFS 🤗
Beautiful bags,thank you!
Beautiful idea! So useful too!! Love it!
I loved this project! I made 12 large ones for my office's Secret Cupid Week over the weekend. I wish I could show you a picture of them! Thank you again
I Love your bag that you constructed , your instructions are excellent just love it.
You are an amazing recycler, and you just gave me a fabulous idea for use of something I’ve been struggling with....old book cover jackets. I did a couple of classes using old books and we removed the jackets, I just couldn’t bring my self to throw them out. I think they can be made into bags. 😋😋😋
That's such a great idea Terri, and I also have a few old book cover jackets that I've been holding on to!
Great tutorial on a very clever project! I appreciate that you didn't speed through your instructions. I definitely want to make these! New subbie!
Hello, and welcome to my channel! Thank you :)
I am addicted to making these bags now😍I absolutely love them
Oh I'm so glad Andrea, thank you!!!
Very good! Great way to use up discarded papers and lovely as well. I’d like to get together with friends nearer the Holidays and make dozens of these to give to relatives and friends. We could also make them to give small gifts to shut-ins and others who could use a little cheering up. How about a few decorated for children, too. Endless possibilities! I hadn’t thought about this before. It’s a great idea and well presented, too.
Thank you so much Ruth! I just love it that your mind is buzzing with ideas and possibilities! Mission accomplished :)
Wow, what a wonderful creative idea!!! It amazes me how creative folks are! I would never think of these things! Love it!!
I am going to try this. I will use with the journals for gift giving. Thx so much. As usual very clear instructions. I am on a very limited income and this is such a great way to use up things around the house.
Thank you Sheila!! Thats what its all about, we can be so creative without any fancy things! They are nice to have, but not essential for creativity!!
Somehow I missed this one....love it!
You can make a simple bag sooooo different and lovely!
❤️👍
Thanks so much 😊
I love your creativity. The bag is so artsy! Thank you for posting the instructions.

Love this idea think these will be my new obsession thank you for sharing x
Love this! Thank you for sharing!
Love the bags! Thank you for sharing!
I just found your channel and I loved this project. I received a gift yesterday and it came in a vinyl bag and we talked about a paper bag of sorts so this came at the right time , thank you
Hi Arcia, thank you so much and a big warm welcome to my channel!
Natasha, these bags are awesome. I thought I had watched all your videos to currant. But I almost missed this great creation. They are beautiful ❤️💕
Thank you! I’m so glad you like them
You always have such brilliant ideas. You use things we're all likely to have, so no having to huy expensive supplies. I always make what you show. Great stuff.❤❤
Thanks so much 😊
congratulations it is a beautiful preset to give a gift to a friend. thanks for your idea. I'll do it soon.
These are so cute and I can envision many, many wonderful uses for them. Thanks so much for the tutorial!!
Thank you dear Natasa! These bags are so creative and useful...I want to start making some today.
OMG, this is perfect! I'm giving craft supplies to my niece for her birthday among which a A3 cutting mat so finding something to put all the supplies in wasn't easy. Plastic bags are uuugh and boxes are either too small or way too big. Plus, I have lots of book pages to use and these A3 colored sheets of paper that were given to me (I wasn't going to refuse! ;) ) but that I'm not really usin with the colors are too bright for my tastes and coffee dying doesn't improve them. Well, they're staining what they're in contact with once watered so at least there is that but still, I have lots unused as well. So it's a 3 birds 1 stone situation! I'm hyped!!
I think I'll make a pocket on the front where I'll put her birthday card :) It will be cute (and possibly inspiring for her as well).
Awesome!! It reached you in time, I'm so glad!!
These are amazing! I absolutely love how you come up wit amazing projects out of what others deem trash. I also love that you give extra design tips with these great tutorials!
Thank you so much Trinity!!
These are fantastic! 👍
What a fun project! Thank you for the clear instructions and inspiration!
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching :)
What a great idea! I think I’ll be making all of my own Xmas bags this year 😃😃😃😃😃
They would be awesome with sheet music paper!
I just love your gift bags . They are wonderful and can be used for so many thing . I just love them
What a cool idea! Your directions are very easy to follow . I will be trying my hand at this one! 😊 Thanks!!
Great idea Natasha. Love it 💕💕💕
Natasha these bags are absolutely genius. I'm sitting here thinking I could use the funny paper and all different kinds of things to make gift bags for family members & friends that would be very unique! TFS❣️ I even shared with people that I know Will loves this. Bravo!!🍂🧡🍁💛🍂
Thank you so much Lala Gamma!!
i love the idea of giving someone a journal in this beautiful bag - thank you for the inspiration - this looks fun and easy to do xx
Thanks!! I was attempting to find something I could mail teas to one of my friends in but handmaking cloth bags was such a tedious thing. Showing me how to create a bag for it was so wonderful. Thank you again!! Love your creations.
You are so welcome! Happy crafting Amanda :)
You could do the same thing with fabric and iron on seam tape, following Natasha’s method. You could even stiffen the fabric with glue or fabric stiffeners!
This is such a great idea! You are so creative! This is something my daughter and I can do-even my grandson!
Exactly!!! So easy to do and FUN!! Nice little family time project
So so cute!!! I’m totally going to do this! Thanks!!!
These book page bags look fantastic! A lovely way to carefully store journals, and so many possible variations! And the way you showed the steps and used the list makes it look fairly easy, thanks!
Thank you for this tutorial,it will be used this advent for Christmas preparations!
So glad! Hvala :)
