Decorating Paper Lunch Sacks

By Mara Rivet

These bags make great inexpensive gift bags or you can use them for parties.

Materials:

  • paper lunch sacks
  • acrylic paint or any kids paint
  • crayons
  • pens
  • paint brushes
  • stencils or stamps if desired and available

Instructions:

Get all the painting supplies ready for kids. Lay out some lunch sacks. Let them make designs on them with whatever supplies they like. If you want a bunch of bags that are the same, have the kids use inexpensive stamps or stencils and help them.

We used a dinosaur stencil I had made and painted it on the sacks and used these for a birthday party. They are fun to make and the kids loved them!
