My utmost thanks to Hooi Thiam for teaching me a lot of things from baking and cooking to recycling!
Photos show process from left to right; top to bottom.
1) For the purpose of teaching, I have used a present paper instead of a recycled paper to show the difference between inner and outer part.
2) Fold the upper part, around 1 inch.
3) Fold the left side, around 1 to 2 inches.
4) Bring the paper from right to left. Glue the side.
5) Now, the upper part of the paper bag has been completed.
6) Fold up the lower part. The width depends on how big you want it to be.
7) Open up the wings just like what shown in Pic. no. 7
8) Bring the left wing to the centre.
9) Bring the right wing slightly on top of the left.
10) Glue the wings together.
11) Now, you have one beautiful paper bag to be filled with a present!
12) I have made paper bags with recycled magazine papers, newspaper, flyers and pamphlets.
Let us REUSE, REDUCE and RECYCLE!
