I started making these bags with custom labels for my family to reuse each Christmas. I am hoping they are used by my children long after I am gone and will bring them fond memories of Christmases past.
After the holidays had passed, I found myself still creating bags (It is so fun!) and thinking of a multitude of uses for them. I hope gifting treasures to your loved ones brings you as much joy as it does to me.
Each bag is carefully crafted out of two layers of 100% cotton quilting fabric. The drawstring closure is grosgrain or organza ribbon. These reversible, handmade bags also feature a convenient pleated, flat bottom.
You will LOVE these eco-friendly reusable alternatives to paper gift wrap! They are fun to gift-in and make a wonderful keepsake, becoming a prominent part of the gift itself!
All Bobtail products are handmade in my smoke-free, pet-friendly home in Oak Park.

NOTE ABOUT GREENER GIFTING:
♻️ Each year Americans alone use 4.6 million pounds of wrapping paper to the tune of seven billion dollars. Half of that, 2.3 million pounds of used, crinkly, glitter-full Santa-paper ends up rolling like tumbleweeds across the desolate wasteland of a landfill!
🌎 A reusable gift bag is one way that you can make gifting greener for a healthier planet!
Gifts: Homemade gift bags, hostess gifts, wine bottles
Organize: Tidy up a dresser drawer, use a small bag in a purse or backpack to corral essentials or protect shoes in your luggage
Storage: Small toys, jewelry, crafting
Get creative and see what you can replace with these reusable cotton bags!
