When I visited my friend we saw this little frog gift bag in a magazine and figured out how to make them. It only took us about 10 minutes in all and it's sooo cute!

It is a really cute bag. What materials did you use? It would be a good idea to use for a kid's birthday party since kids usually take something home from the party. You will probably sell those like crazy at your craft fairs. The eyes are adorable.

Yeah, party favors. Those were the 2 words I was searching for. Ok, had a brain fart tonight.

We used a 12x12 piece of card stock...green and stamped on the dots....just score it in a few places...used sticky tape and cut two big circles and added the eyes....it was quick and so cute. I only made one but am going to try to make some different ones from wall paper....maybe try to make different animals....they aren't very big but a good size for party favors.

I am going to try some different ones using wallpaper. I have tons of the sample books so I want to use as much as I can.

That is so cute! And it's true, a lot of stuff you see in the story like that are things you could actually make your self. Saves a lot of money on gift wrapping. I may do something like that next time I wrap a gift as that just looks so adorable!

Oh, what a cute little froggie bag! I can't exactly figure out how you made the fold-over on the top of the bag that becomes the mouth with the eyes on top. But it's so adorable! And 10 minutes, wow! May I call you Martha Stewart? PearlGrace

The top is just two circles....of different colors folded over the top of the bag....I am not Martha! LOL.....or I'd be living in a different house! LOL

That looks really cute. I love to look at little things like that in craft magazines, but I never take the time to make them.

I love trying new things and these were just so cute. I gave a small gift to my granddaughter for her birthday and mama kept the bag. they were really easy once we figured them out!

Love the eyes! That's pretty adorable, and I'll definitely keep it in mind for the next time I need to gift someone something.
