I LOVE the gorgeous typography and wonderful sentiments in Seasonal Remedies. Envisioning these labels on old grain sacks, I decided to make some little rustic gift bags.
First, I stitched some burlap bags that measure 4x5 and ran some jute twine through the casing. Next I cut some muslin squares and stitched around the edges with red thread; the frayed edges add to the rusticity--ok, so I just made up a word. Then I stamped the image with red dye ink. I attached the stamped muslin squares to the burlap bags with 1/8 inch score taped placed beneath the stitching--easy peasy.
Supplies:
Stamps:Seasonal Remedies (Waltzingmouse Stamps)
Ink: Jenny Bowlin Chili Powder (Ranger)
Other: Simply Chartreuse and Pure Poppy felt, Holly Jolly die (PTI)

LOOOOOVE these, Cammie! They are the sweetest creations, and make me think of Laurie Ingalls Wilder going to the Olsen's Mercantile to get some penny candy! Beautiful stamped, stitched, and embellished, and sooo creative!
I think that "rusticity" really sums it up perfectly! Cammie, they are so pretty and just about the most creative thing I've seen. I love all the little details you put into these little sacks, such a great job.
These are wonderful! What a fabulous idea!
Oh my goodness, these little gift bags are just fabulous! So creative. And festive!
Thanks so much for sharing these wonderful bags! I just downloaded one of your pictures so I'll remember for the future - will let you know if/when I case them - LOVE them!
Cammie, my eyes lit up when I saw the photos of your projects. These are wonderful little rustic gift bags - love the texture of the burlap, felt and cotton muslin together and that image stamped in red ties it all together perfectly. Those little rusty jingle bells finish them off perfectly-thanks for the inspiration - can't wait to try something similar.
What wonderful little treat sacks! Amazing project!!
These are amazing. What a clever idea. I am laughing at your description of sewing the bags-easy-peasy. You have clearly never met someone who substitutes a glue gun for a needle and thread (I'm sewing-challenged). In my wildest dreams, I couldn't replicate this, but thanks for the inspiration.
Wow, this is absolutely stunning.
Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind words.
What a wonderful idea! Just too adorable.
Hi Cammie! These bags are really fabulous!! Love the size and how you decorated them. You are so talented!! Great job!!
What a great idea! Super cute. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
Oh these are *gorgeous* - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the fabric mix and the homespun happy feeling! They would be perfect for gifting anything that fits inside!
