Sweet paper bags - making your own?

kr15snw

I really like the idea of having paper sweet bags as favours to each of the guests.

We originally wanted cellophane bags, but I've decided that I'd like to have the retro sweet bags on each place.

Like this:



BUT I'm a picky git and want them to match my colour scheme, lol.

Anyone got any idea if I could buy the paper in big sheets and then make the bags myself?

OR can anyone find the bags in aqua blue stripes?

Hmm...
There are some others here: http://www.cakecraftshop.co.uk/shop/3/28/413/index.htm but I am not sure if they are what you are looking for in terms of colour! (I am sooooo helpful I know!)

What about these? http://www.onlinepackagingshop.co.uk/acatalog/candy-stripe-paper-bags.html
If you click on the drop down menu on the right hand side I think you should be able to choose the colour and size of the bags?

According to Martha Stewart you can run paper bags through your printer. I've bookmarked this as I'm considering a lace wedding!
