It's no secret that some craft ideas are obvious in hindsight. Don't ask me why, but I only thought about stamping organza bags a few days ago while thinking of a way to finish off a wedding keepsake.
The how-to couldn't be simpler;
- Purchase organza bags in a size and color to suit your needs.
- Choose a stamp that suits your theme.
- Select an ink color which is dark (red, navy blue, dark green or black all work well).
- Place a piece of scrap paper inside the organza bag (blank is best so you can see what you're doing).
- Place all the bags you're going to stamp in a row on a table or bench where they can stay while they dry out (you need to leave them longer than when you stamp paper to fully dry).
- Start stamping!
To finish these keepsakes off I made gold paper gift tags, using the same stamp (I like how the border turned into brackets), and added a golden crown sticker. They're super sweet, fun, fast, and the results look fabulous. Simply add your preferred contents, whether its potpourri, sweets, rice, birdseed, or Easter eggs... makes me a touch frustrated I didn't do this for my own wedding instead of hand sticking a gem to every bag, which was beautiful, but time consuming. Hindsight's a wonderful thing...
