Today I'm sharing a creative way to repurpose inexpensive Dollar Tree fabric gift bags.

When I picked up this little 3-piece packet of fabric gift bags at my local Dollar Tree I wasn't sure what I was going to do with it. I just knew that I'd find a fun way to repurpose the bags (as opposed to just using them for "gifting" something). And I knew I loved the blue and white striped pattern because it reminded me of "ticking" fabric (which screams vintage to me).

Initially I considered using small jars and filling them with flowers, until I realized that I already had the perfect dried flower arrangements for this project. Ironically, these sweet purple flower arrangements wrapped in burlap were also a Dollar Tree purchase from a few years ago. They must have been popular because I think they still carry them every spring! I will, however, be using small jars filled with fresh flowers from my flower garden for this project come summer.

Talk about a sweet spring floral arrangement.

It's no surprise I fell in love with these little gift bags since they're sporting my favorite color combination -- blue and white. I knew they'd look great on my living room mantel next to my ginger jar collection.

I'm glad the real thing ended up looking like I thought it would.

 

Since buying the little bags, I've noticed that Dollar Tree sells other similar little gift bags with different patterns on them. So if you're not a fan of blue and white ticking, perhaps they have some different patterns at a store near you!

Well, that's it for today, friends!
