I've looked Tracy, but didn't find anything! Sorry, I'll keep looking! BTW, how are you doing?

There's been a lot of discussion on 2peas about these adorable little creations. A lot of the women have been requesting the originator email directions so they haven't been posted on the site but maybe this will help? melly~

here's a gallery that better shows how they're put together. Some of these are so darn cute I just may have to try them!! Hope this helps. melly~

Found the directions!!! *grin*

I got those directions from a 2peas post, but it looks like it makes a different kind of paper bag book than the two that were posted here earlier...so who knows! :)

Hannah

Yeah Hannah! I just look at the two peas example and thought how cute I'd like to make one.

These look really neat! looks like they put 3 bags together, folded them in half and secured to make a book. What an inexpensive gift! Thanks for sharing.

Are paper bags acid free?

Ooooh I made one of these tonight!! It came out AWESOME! It was so much fun! I will have to scan it or take pictures and post them! I will be sure to let everyone know when I do! :) You have got to try these!!! :)

Hannah

Ouuu Hannah, I look forward to seeing how it turned out! Sounds like it was fun to d, too!!!

Hannah,

Did you use a grocery sack or a lunch sack. That I wasn't use of from the picture.

Lynne

I used a lunch sack...but you can use the bigger ones...it all depends on what size album you want when its all finished! :)

Hannah

The bad thing is that most of the grocery size sacks have writing on them from the stores.

This is perfect and would make a great gift! Thanks for finding this.

Now when I made mine, I just used lunch sacks and folded them in half..that way you can use the "top" of the bags as pockets... I didn't use the method that they show you in the directions I posted the other day. Just a little FYI :)

Hannah

I found instructions for these books with a search. This looks just like the books on the 2Peas links. They look like fun, I think I will give it a whirl.

Yeah that is kind of what I did...but if you don't glue the bags together...and use eyelets and ribbon to put the book together...3 bags will make a 10 page book!! :)
