Reusable cloth gift bags

I love gifting things, and I love crafting things to give people, but manoman, I hate wrapping stuff. I don’t know why I find it so complicated—maybe just finding one empty flat surface big enough to roll out that huge and flimsy paper is too hard, but I also can’t find the tape and the hunt for the right size box usually ends in frustration, and then buying paper just so I can throw it away later is hard to swallow, too. Amanda’s reusable gift bags is the answer! No scissors, no tape, no hunting around for a ribbon. I love this idea so much (did it involve a little bit of sewing? And scraps? And finally finding a use for my stashed hoard of the fabric handles from Anthropologie shopping bags? Yes, yes, and yes!)
