Amanda of Acey Jewelry shares this lovely and easy project for making decorated jewelry gift bags:

Decorated paper jewelry gift bags
by Amanda of Acey Jewelry

Amanda says:

This is a fast, cheap way to make creative and unique gift bags for your customers.

All you need are some small (4" x 5") Kraft paper bags (I chose natural colored), and some 3D scrapbook stickers.

Wal-mart had both supplies in the same aisle in the craft section. The bags were under $2 and the stickers under $3.

Arrange the stickers however you see fit, and it'll add interest (and value) to your pieces.

Also, whenever I sell a piece of jewelry, I wrap it in acid-free anti-tarnish tissue paper.

It's available at Thunderbird Supply, which also has the best deal on sterling silver wire that I've found so far.

Thanks so much for sharing this great jewelry gift bag project, Amanda!

Here's a cross between a bag and an envelope - the "Bagalope" - and instructions for making your own:
