There's something even more sweet about a gift wrapped with a personal touch and tender care.
We think these miniature gingerbread houses made from a natural kraft SOS grocery bag are just the thing to hold a cookie, a card, or a small trinket. Believe it or not, they are also easy to make!
Start by gathering your supplies:
- Small paper bag (any size will work)
- Hole punch
- Ribbon or twine
- Puffy paint, crayons, or stickers

Design your gingerbread house:
- Using puff paint or a crayon, decorate your paper bag keeping in mind that the top corners will eventually be folded to make your roof. You can also use stickers or other embellishments to add a pop of color or visual interest.
- Once your paint has dried, open the bag and fold the top corners of the bag down to create a triangle
- Use a hole punch to create two holes
