Nest and Egg Fabric Gift Bag DIY
I hope you will enjoy this Nest and Egg Fabric Gift Bag DIY. I’m so excited to share with you this project, and even more excited to share with you this image!! This weeks crafty project is this cute burlap nest and egg bag. This post is for any crafters out there looking to make a cute and affordable gift this holiday season. I am going to show you how to make fabric gift bags that are perfect for holding tiny gifts or party favors! It’s easy, quick, and very budget friendly. The best part is these bags can be personalized with your favorite images and motifs. So if Nests and Eggs aren’t your thing, customize with whatever image you like. Let’s get started!

Here’s the before pic, I used these plain bleached burlap or jute bags. You can purchase the burlap bags here if you like, or if you’re handy with a sewing machine, you could always make your own. The size that I used were the 6″ by 10″ bags. I Printed the Image directly onto my fabric, Click HERE for Technique, again using some canvas drop cloth fabric and my inkjet Printer, that prints with waterproof ink. (Unfortunately they do not appear to be making that printer any more, but these are gift bags so you don’t need to wash them, so a regular inkjet printer should be fine for this project) After printing, I cut my fabric down to size, and pulled some threads around the edges to give it a rustic looking fringed effect. Lastly I just hot glued the fabric right to the front of the bag! Super easy and fun!!
I hope you enjoyed this Fabric Gift Bag DIY! I filled the bag with some fine French soaps. This would make a great hostess gift for Thanksgiving or cute for someone that just moved into a new home!!

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation
but I find this matter to be actually something that I think I
would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me.
I am looking forward for your next post, I will try
to get the hang of it!

Hi Kerry,
I just tested it and it seems to be working fine for me. Maybe there was a glitch the day you tried it, try it again and I’ll cross my fingers that it works for you this time!

Hi Karen,
The transparent PNG file does not seem to be available any more. Would love to get the image without the background colour.
Thanks

This is a wonderful image, Karen! Another one I’ve saved. I need to get some supplies together and start doing these projects. I’d like to make some of them as Christmas gifts this year, but don’t want to wait and rush at the last minute.

I absolutely love this image!! It’s so cute with the little egg at the top! I must tell you that when I found your blog (ages ago), I added it to my Google home page and each morning I so look forward to seeing what gorgeous image you have for me to download and what inspiring crafts you have to share.
Thank you so much!

this is beautiufl and can’t wait to find a use for it. You are so generous Karen and I have man yof your images also saved in a folder. I noticed the question you asked Tammy. I print on a lot of fabric… iron your fabric to the shiny side of the freezer paper and it acts like an adhesive, make sure you trim any trheads and it runs through a printer wonderfully.
