Easy to make Father's Day gift wrap

Father’s Day will be here before we know it. I wanted to share something you can make that you can give your dad for Father’s Day  It is a super easy Father’s Day gift bag to make… or even a way to wrap a gift for any occasion for the men in your life.

All you need is a flat bottom paper bag of any size, ribbon, and a pair of scissors.

If your gift is large, you can even use a brown paper grocery bag and a real men’s tie instead of a piece of ribbon.

Paper bags come in all colors and sizes, check at the craft, party, or dollar store to find them if you don’t already have one stashed away somewhere in your house that you could use.

1. Figure out how wide your ribbon is. Mine was 1-inch wide. I cut the length to 24 inches.

2. Lay bag on work surface and fold over mouth of bag twice (folding away from you) making sure the folds are the same width or wider than the ribbon you are using. I made each of my folds 1 -1/4″ wide.
