Party preparations - party bags

After all the manic crafting to fill party bags with mostly homemade goodies I wanted to try and make my own bags to hold all of the stash. After a quick search on google I came across this tutorial for making newspaper gift bags and after tweaking it a little ended up with a stack of these brown kraft paper bags.

Now I stuck deciding whether to decorate these or not... any suggestions?

A new hat?

My husband seems to have gotten very excited about my latest completed project... so excited in fact that he has put it straight on his head when it isn't in fact a hat. Oh dear.

It is a nice chunky bag from one of the patterns in the Crochetville forum (waves of colour tote bag pattern) which I've doubled the size of so that I can use it to carry around my crochet projects. It also gave me the opportunity to use up some of my left over balls of wool that I've been struggling to find projects for. I even finished up some lovely bamboo yarn that I had left over from making my wedding dress wrap.

Now that I've used some of my stash up perhaps I should wander over to the shops to buy a little more...
