To show you how....






















I thought I would share with you the brown bag scrap book.... Myrna had also asked, as she thought she had it but wasn't quite sure... The sack in the photos is about 15"x8". It is the medium size sack used for groceries. You can purchase these at the grocery store... The embellished one below is the little brown sandwich size sack.... You can purchase these on ebay already punched if you choose and they are very reasonable in price... Several sellers have them on just by typing in a search for brown bag scrapbook....

You can use up to 6 or so sacks and have several pouches for papers.... memories...dates ect. I showed just gluing on papers of your choice and them embellish away. Some of the bags on ebay are sewed together already.... They are nice for scrapbooks but if you want to do just a folder for a card or small gift I like them not sewn together. You tie then together when you are ready to be completed with ribbons ...yarns... strings... items you may have odds and ends of work well also... Let you imagination have a great time... Any questions please feel free to ask... I hope this helps you also Myrna.....

Oh WOW! Thanks, Marietta! I'm gonna try to make one~~although it probably won't be as cute as yours. Thank you so much for 'splaining it..great job!
I'm heading for the grocery store right now, and will feel better about asking for 'paper' instead of 'plastic'! ;-)
Blessings!
