A tradition we’ve been doing for FOUR generations in our family is Santa Sacks or Santa Bags. This Do Not Open Until December 25th Santa Sack is an easy gift to create.
Placing gifts in these sacks is a great way to “wrap” a gift. You can use it year after year. No messy gift wrapping and time-consuming gift wrap are needed. Make it once and it’s done.
Use an iron-on cut-out with the Cricut machine. You can purchase a laundry bag to make this really easy and just iron on the wording. Add a bow and that’s it.
Super quick craft and a great gift idea for Christmas. You can find more details here on how to sew one.
