Repurpose A Paper Bag Into A Folio

In this video I show you how I repurpose a large paper grocery bag and make something new out of it. You don't need a paper bag to make it, you can use any large paper that you have, because there are no measurements needed to make one. I show you how easy it is to make one or many!

I really enjoyed making these quick and super easy shakers. No special tools or materials required!!! These are my first one's and I really love how they came out. The best part is, it takes no time at all once you've gathered the simple items you can use.
