DIY Shabby Chic Burlap Gift Bags for Christmas

DIY Burlap Gift Bags for Christmas Kits
Curtsey Boutique

These burlap bags were added to the shop today and I can think of SO many things I can't wait to do with them. At 4 x 6 " they are perfect for gift cards or other small treats. I think these will be what I give my girl's teachers gift cards in for the holidays.

One of my favorite parts of the above project is the corrugated and glittered die cut stars! So pretty when paired with lace, pearls and seam binding.

In case you love pretty, but are pretty busy you can but a kit to make the gift bag shown above. The belly band is already made complete with the wonderful full seam binding bow. All you have to do is slide it on the bag, insert your gift and tie a knot with the seam binding. Leave the tails as long ar short as you like, but once the belly band is slid into place the bow and seam binding tails match up for a seamless and complete look.

If you rather create you own wonderful design you can purchase the bags plain. They are fantastic when stenciled, painted, glittered, stamped on or embellished with paper, lace, felt and tulle!

Gift Certificate Giveaway and Freckled Fawn Kits

Curtsey Boutique Paper Bows and Rosettes in Freckled Fawn's June Kit

I am so thrilled with the warm reception the shop has been getting. Every wedding, baptism, birthday and graduation that my little products from the Curtsey Boutique participate in is just delightful experience for me. I love it when customers share pictures of brides wearing my hair flowers or layouts with my paper bows on them.

To celebrate our milestone of reaching over 100 sales (that happened a bit ago, but we are playing catch up!) and to share some exciting news we are giving away a $10.00 gift certificate to the shop. You can use the gift certificate towards merchandise and shipping. All you have to do is comment on this post.

To see what you can use the gift certificate on (which is everything in the shop) visit the Curtsey Boutique here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/curtseyboutique

The exciting news is that our paper bows and rosettes will be sold as part of the Freckled Fawn's Indie Kits! I am so honored and excited about this kit which contains items sold by artists like myself - one of a kind, from the heart and all hand made.  The picture at the top of the post is June's Kit which is available for sale starting today.
