I am actually using a little brown paper bag also. Folded at the top, heart hole punch and hung on there is a little welcome letter to the guests. They turned out super cute!!

A little bit ago I told ya'll I got some shirts on vista print. I just thought I'd share pics and info. After the fact I read on the vistaprint thread that the shirts run big which is true. I wish I had known before ordering but they really aren't bad. I really just imagine everyone wearing them around the pool, etc anyway so it doesn't really bother me. I washed the shirts and ironed them and even though I followed the was instructions I do feel like the graphic faded a little which is a bummer bc they are gifts and brand new. I washed them bc I am giving them to everyone in Mexico and I want them to wear them right away. Overall, I am very happy with them. I just feel like for the price- you can't complain! Here is a quick pic I snapped with my phone. Sorry it's sideways. Oh an the design is something I created myself.

I'm just using a brown Kraft paper bag with colored tissue paper and a bag tag. I know it's popular to give really nice bags that are useable throughout the vacation, but I just didn't take that route. I got mine at hobby lobby for a couple bucks per 12 bags.

Great thank you so much! I'm trying to make good bags but also trying to stay on right budget to do so ill check it out. Where did you find bags so a good price? I'm worried about buying online not knowing the quality of product

You're welcome! I also needed/wanted to stay within a reasonable budget and since I splurged in other areas, I cut back in others. One place I cut back was the actual bag. I know it really nice and popular to give a reusable bag but I I decided to just use a brown Kraft paper bag that I got at Hobby Lobby. A 12 pack was just a couple bucks or so. I'm adding colored tissue paper and cute bag tags and they look adorable. It cut costs significantly compared to buying real bags. If reusable bags are something you want, check out VistaPrint bc for a really decent price you can make it a custom design print on the bag and use a great coupon code combined with a groupon or something. I get stuff through vistaprint all the time for practically free!
