Butterfly Envelopes



This is an oldie, but goodie - turning envelopes into treat bags.  I found these really cool Seventies envelopes at a flea market.  (It was more flea than market, but I did come away with some great stuff!)  Don't you love the orange and hot pink?

It couldn't be easier to turn your envelopes into a quick gift bag - perfect for a little treat or gift card - maybe both?



Seal the envelope (I use glue, instead of just licking it - want to make sure it stays sealed).



Then cut open one end - you can use pinking shears or decorative scissors.

Now what?  Just decorate!



This one already has some fun flowers.  I pinked across the top, clipped on a pretty butterfly and glued in a white doily on the inside.  Love it!



This one is a plain white envelope.  I wrapped wide washi tape around the bottom.  Holes are punched across the top and threaded with twine.  It got a pretty butterfly, too!

Need a quick gift bag?  Try an envelope!

Hope you're having a lovely week.  Happy you came by!
