Instructions
Step 1: Find what you need
Gather your supplies and materials.
Step 2: Fold the bag and draw the face
Fold down the top 1-1/2 inches of a paper sandwich bag.
Repeat, folding it over 3 more times. Add paper clips to keep the folds in place.
Draw short lines in a "V" shape at the top of the bag, using a white paint pen.
Use black permanent marker to draw eyes on the bag.
Step 3: Add goodies to the bag
Remove the paperclips and unfold the bag.
Gather a bunch of tasty treats and add them into the bag.
Fold the bag back down and add glue tape to the last inside fold.
Press the fold back down into place.
Step 4: Cut out the ears and antlers
Print our free reindeer gift bags template (find the link in the materials list above) and cut out the ear and antler shape of your choice.
Cut 2 antlers and ears from brown cardstock.
Step 5: Attach the ears, antlers, and nose
Colour the inside part of the ears with white paint pen.
Add a line of glue tape to the bottom front of the ears.
Attach them so they stick out the sides of the bag. Bend the center of the ears a bit so they become more 3D.
Glue the antlers to the top of the bag, on either side of the "V".
Finally, attach the pom pom nose with a bit of glue tape or tacky glue.
Your reindeer gift bag is complete!
