Made a Bag Today

Well I've stayed with the Take Out the Stash box and I saw a striped paper by AMM. I thought that it would look good with this bag and natural ribbon, so I set to work.

First I made the bag from some heavyweight paper that I had, then I cut a strip of paper from the box and stuck it to the base of the bag. I made a bow in some natural grosgrain ribbon and used it to cover the join. I punched out holes and threaded through the raffia to make handles. Having first put a message tag on.

Rather a butch bag, don't you think?

Not everyone wants pretty.
