A Couple More Christmas Items!

Here are a couple more gift items I made....

This sleigh pattern was found HERE. I filled the sleighs with a packet of hot cocoa mix, marshmallows, Hershey kisses and a candy cane.



This is a simple little gift bag decorated to look like Santa.



The bag is just a basic brown paper lunch sack. Here are some dimensions for you:

Back red cardstock piece is 5 1/2 x 6 1/4. The 5 1/2" side is scored at 2" and that will make the flap that flips over the top.

Front red cardstock piece is 5 1/2 x 4"

Black belt is 5 1/2" x 1" and silver buckle is 1 3/8" square

Black buttons are 1/2" circles

I tied some tinsel around the top. Bag is shut with velcro.

Ribbon handle is made by punching small hole at the top and running 5/8" grosgrain ribbon through it. I just taped down the ribbon on the underside.

Love your sleigh Lorri! The beautiful decor looks awesome - esp that striped bow! You can find the template on the blog, about 1/2 way down under the listing of templates. Hope that is helpful. Happy Holidays!
