Custom Gift Bag with Handle Template

Imagine you're planning a birthday party, a school event, or even selling your own handmade crafts. You want your gifts or products to look really special. That's where the Custom Gift Bag with Handle Template from Envato Packaging comes in handy. It’s like a magic tool that helps you create awesome looking gift bags right at home or in your classroom. What is a Gift Bag Template? Think of a template as a guide. It’s a predesigned pattern that shows you exactly where to cut, fold, and glue to make a gift bag. Our template is special because it’s customizable. This means you get to decide what the bag looks like! You can add your own pictures, colors, and words to make it truly unique. Why Use Our Template? Making gift bags from scratch can be tricky. Without a template, your bags might end up uneven, too small, or just plain wonky. Our template makes the whole process super easy. It gives you perfect measurements and clear instructions, so every bag turns out great. It saves you time and effort, and you won't waste paper trying to figure out the right sizes. What Can You Do With It? The possibilities are endless! You can use the template for: Birthday Parties: Create personalized goodie bags for all your friends. Add their names, favorite characters, or even pictures from your party. School Events: Make bags for fundraising events, school fairs, or teacher gifts. You can print the school logo or event information right on the bag. Small Businesses: If you sell crafts, soaps, or jewelry, these bags are a fantastic way to package your products. Add your business name and logo to create a professional look. Holidays: Make special gift bags for Christmas, Easter, or Thanksgiving. Decorate them with holiday themed designs and colors. Party Favors: Fill them with candies, small toys, or other treats for a memorable party takeaway. Easy to Use Instructions The template comes with simple instructions that even someone who has never made a gift bag before can follow. Basically, you download the template file. This file is designed to work with most common computer programs that can open and print image files. You then print the template onto your chosen paper or cardstock. Follow the cut lines, fold along the designated lines, and glue the seams together. Finally, attach the handles and you're done! We also include pictures to help you visualize each step. Choosing Your Materials You can use different kinds of paper or cardstock to create your bags. For a simple and affordable option, regular printer paper works well. However, for a sturdier bag, we recommend using cardstock. Cardstock is thicker and more durable than printer paper, so your bags will be able to hold heavier items. You can also experiment with different colors and textures of paper to create unique and eye catching bags. Consider using recycled paper to be environmentally friendly. Customizing Your Design This is where the fun begins! Before you print the template, you can add your own designs using a computer program like Microsoft Paint or a more advanced program like Adobe Photoshop. You can add pictures, text, patterns, and any other graphics you want. For example, if you're making a birthday bag, you could add a picture of the birthday person and write "Happy Birthday!" You can also change the colors of the template to match your theme. If you prefer not to use a computer, you can also decorate the bags by hand after they are assembled. Use markers, crayons, stickers, or glitter to add your personal touch. Handle Options Our template allows for different types of handles. You can use ribbon, rope, or even strips of paper to create the handles. Simply cut two pieces of your chosen material to the desired length and attach them to the inside of the bag with glue or tape. For a more professional look, you can purchase pre made handles from a craft store. Make sure the handles are strong enough to support the weight of the items you'll be putting in the bag. Printing Tips When printing the template, make sure your printer settings are set to "actual size" or "100%." This will ensure that the template prints at the correct dimensions. You can also do a test print on plain paper to make sure everything looks right before printing on your chosen paper or cardstock. If you're printing a lot of bags, consider using a printing service to save time and money. Printing services often offer discounts for large orders. Saving Money and Being Creative Instead of buying expensive gift bags from the store, you can now create your own custom bags for a fraction of the cost. Plus, you get to be creative and design something truly unique. It’s a fun and rewarding project that you can do with your family and friends. Envato Packaging's Custom Gift Bag with Handle Template is a simple solution that allows you to express your creativity.
