Starbucks Bag Gift Wrap

One of things I like to do is use household and recycled items to create beautiful gifts. Using stuff you already have can create an inexpensive and unique gift wrap design. It also makes a great conversation piece. I love giving wrapped gifts that not only make a person feel special but also causes them to take a second look to figure how you decorated them.

This Starbucks bag gift wrap design is made entirely out of a Starbucks bag and a coffee sleeve. The ribbon is an unraveled handle from the shopping bag and the flower is cut from the coffee sleeve. I love the textures on this gift — it makes such an interesting look. This gift wrap design would be perfect for coffee lover in your life.
