I am very excited about the transformation of this used envelope into a Christmas gift carrier. To make this Christmas gift pouch you need a used bubble envelope, Christmas wrapping paper cuttings, glue, scissors, a hole punch, acrylic paint and a brush, ribbon. First we gave the envelope a coat of rich acrylic paint to cover the post office stamps and the address stickers. We let it dry overnight and cut a lot of tiny stars out of the wrapping paper. Once the envelope was fully dry we attached the silver stars on both sides. We made two holes on the open side of the envelope with a punch and we tied two pieces of ribbon on each side making two handles. Our envelope is now a very useful gift bag.
