1, material preparation

According to the size of the package to be made, cut the paper according to the required size, and generally reserve the edge of 2-3 cm as the bonding place. Generally speaking, you can choose to make each side equal in length, so that the left and right sides of the bag are equal.

Step 2 fold

Lay the paper flat on the panel. Fold the left and right edges of the paper to the middle to ensure that the two edges can be pasted together. You can press the edges gently with a pencil to make sure they stick together.

3. Side treatment

Fold the bottom edge upwards, and at the same time fold the side edge to the middle and fix it at the bottom. You can compact the sides and bottom with a pencil and cut off the excess paper where necessary.

4, processing under the fold

Many paper bag making tutorials will emphasize the treatment of creases, because this place will directly affect the service life of paper bags, so be sure to operate carefully. Fold down the side edge of the bottom so that it coincides with the edge of the paper below. Compaction to ensure that the bonded part is firm and stable.

5, convergent processing

Fold the two corners of the bottom inward and fix them. You can use adhesive or let them stick together naturally.

You can add some reflective stickers and draw corresponding patterns on the finished paper bag to beautify it.

The paper bag can be used to hold small gifts, travel necessities and so on. This is a simple DIY project, even if you are not a master craftsman, you can try it. I wish you a happy birth!
