St. Patrick's Day Chocolate Coins Gift Bag



My tutorial today shows how I made
these cute little packages to hold
some chocolate coins for my Grandsons
for St. Patrick's Day.
It definitely won't be a 'get together' day again,
unless they allow us to meet outside!!
So I wanted to start making some little sweet gifts
for them which can be easily delivered to the doorstep.

You can watch my video here



Measurements needed to follow along
Designer paper - 8" x 4 1/2"
Score long side - 1 1/2", 3", 4 1/2", 6", 7 1/2"
Score short side - 1 1/2", 3"

Items used:
garden green bakers twine (retired)
but you could used linen thread

I would like to enter these into

Nothing much happening here other than crafting
at the minute. Got a new lampshade for my hall,
still have another few bits to finish but not sure
what to get and don't want to be dithering around
the shops!!
Stay safe out there, this is not over!
