I basically have dreams and I put the supplies together till they are worked out in my mind. This was one of them I hope to enhance them in my next order. I see so many things that could work on these. Ribbons and bows as well. I am frugal and it has been a need to survive on my low budget. I thought of this while in my sleep. It's amazing how I can't even sleep without dreaming frugal things. This will be a great way to gift someone a brown paper bag.
My Brown bag project began with a dream I had. Not knowing the outcome I purchased 50 brown bags off ebay.com. I also found them available for free on a game I am playing. They ship from amazon.com. I am not sure I can list it here though. My next project will be free due to the game.
I purchased a few stickers and buttons on wish.com a few times. I pay $1.00 or less for each pack. I had these on hand so that was already taken care of. Wish.com has awesome buttons for less.
I was happy to have my handy glue gun and a few sticks of glue left. I set each bag out with stickers on buttons in different places. It was a lot of fun for this old girl. The crafting itself was a joy.
The outcome was a few bags that have already been commented on. I have them set aside for a few will be given with gifts inside. I have to say my next shipment will be colored bags and so many cute decals. I am not sure if you like it. Thanks for viewing.

Shay, your bags are delightful! Stickers on top of buttons adds that extra dimension. I think you would have to charge $5 per bag, plus postage just to get your money back.
I also have fibromyalgia and many of my projects have been carried out from my bed. Invite trying to figure out how to sand a slice of a log on a bed tray! ☺️
