Supplies Needed:
- Paper

Step 1
- Take an A4 size paper and fold in half but make sure don’t make crease all the way in the middle.
- You just need to press lightly from the top. This will create a guide for our next step.
- Unfold the paper and then fold the right side of the paper towards the middle
- Fold the left side in a way that it overlaps the right side of the paper about 1cm.
Step 2
- You can use a tape or glue. I’m using glue stick.
- Apply glue on the entire edge of the left side of the paper then stick on the right side of the paper.
- Fold the bottom end up.
- Open the bottom end so the inside of the paper is visible then fold the left and right edges in.
Step 3
- Then fold the top towards the middle.
- Fold the bottom towards the middle.
- Fold the right and left side of the bag inwards around 1cm.
- Unfold and give the paper a gift bag shape by defining the edges.
Step 4

- Then close the bag and make five to six accordion folds.
- Press in the middle
