Do you love miniatures like I do? I have been enthralled by miniature things my whole life beginning with a love of dollhouses. Miniatures are magical in my book!
I was inspired by fellow demonstrator Lori Heiling’s little tote bag idea to create a mini bag that would mimic a tiny grocery sack so I went to work and turned the Kraft 6″ x 6″ paper into one. This project sent me down a delightful rabbit hole of miniature bag making that culminated in the designing of a coordinating miniature card and envelope too. I hope this project makes you as giddy as it has made me!

Supplies for Grocery Sack
- 3” x 6” Kraft paper (for sack)
- 1/4” x 6” Kraft paper(for handles)
- Strong adhesive: Liquid Glue, Seal+, Tear Tape
- Scoring Tool
- Cardstock scraps to decorate sack
Using scissors, cut out the dark gray shaded section as shown above and discard. Cut on the remaining 3/4” score lines as indicated by the dotted lines to create tabs for the bottom of the sack. The light gray shaded section is the flap on the side of the sack that will hold the sack together and where the adhesive is placed. The ends of this flap can be mitered with your scissors to help the sack fold neatly.
Supplies for Miniature Card & Envelope
- 2” x 3” Kraft paper for card base
- 1-3/8” x 1-7/8” cardstock for card front
- 3” square copy paper for envelope
- Scoring Tool
Score diagonally between the markings but set back 1/8” from edge of paper.
