Helpful Information
- Level of Difficulty: Easy

Supplies Needed
How to Make a Dress Doily Gift Bag
1. Take your doily and almost fold in half see below image
2. Then fold again half way along the doily as below creating a pretty dress effect.
3. Now fold back the top triangle crating a straight line edge as below.
4. On another doily draw a heart shape I drew around a cookie cutterbut you can draw free hand, then cut out.
5. Cut each edge of the heart away as below to create the top half of your dress. Then glue onto some white card or paper and cut out.
6. Glue into position onto your gift bag ensuring the placement is right before gluing down you van do this by practising where you will glue them. Once glued down you can add your dress decorations, I used ribbon and a paper flower, sticking these on with glue dots.
