This Paper Bag Scrapbook is made out of lunch sacks. Perfect for teachers, girlfriends, daughter’s stocking, and more.
It’s simple to make and so much fun. Just fold 3-4 sacks together, punch three holes (or more) down the edges and tie ribbon or yarn through each set of holes.
It’s fun to change the direction of the paper sacks so that you get pockets & folds in various directions. You can add pretty papers and textures and trinkets.

You can place little cards with promises in the pockets, like this one for a big fat chocolate cake! Or if you are really in the giving spirit, you can create a matching card with the recipe for your homemade big fat chocolate cake.
Add a few of her favorite things like old matchbooks, buttons, and ribbons…
Write, stamp or print out & add a list of the things she loves or her favorite quotes & verses or things that make her special or a list of your very silliest of personal jokes.
Find prints of some of her favorite songs or hymns.
I do love embellishments.
Place a small packet of bubble bath in a pocket. I don’t recommend tucking tator tot casserole in there though. Perhaps a coupon for a homemade dinner for her busiest day of the week would be just fine.
Take a looksie at the top… see the little file folder? Oh so sweet.
Defining moments.
Find out her favorite drink – perfection for her. Insert a coffee card in this pocket. Joy on the go.
Oh, the gives we could give with this little friendship book. Teabags, letters, pretty pins and more.
But of course, from beginning to end, the best of all is the love you will put into it.
Just for kicks, here is a little gift box idea to match.
A recycled Frango Mints box. I know just what I shall place inside.
Chocolate mint tea. Warm and cozy. Just like Christmas with loved ones.
