Tips and Tricks
- The GREEN multi-purpose glue can also be used for gluing. The vegan glue is suitable for paper, cardboard, cork, felt, polystyrene and much more. Shake before use.
How it is done:
- Cover the work area well and have the materials ready.
- First cut a rectangular piece of paper from the roll. The size depends on the size of the gift.
- Next, place the paper in landscape format on the work surface and fold the two outer sides vertically into the centre. One side may overlap. This allows them to be glued together, creating a kind of "tunnel".
- For the bottom, fold the lower end of the tunnel upwards by approx. 3-4 cm.
- Unfold the piece you just folded upwards and fold two triangles on the left and right.
- Now close the bottom by folding the top and bottom pieces in half. Again, let the paper overlap slightly and seal with tape.
- Now you can design the gift bag as you like. Shake the alkyd paints well before use and use the brush to creatively paint and label the bags. Let everything dry well and fill the bags with gifts.
