Evidence of a shopaholic

True shopaholics probably have a stash of shopping bags just waiting to be reused.  I have quite a collection of perfectly good bags that I can't bare to throw out.  I needed to wrap a Valentine's gift and decided to use an old Anthropologie bag.  The cream paper has a nice weight and texture which makes for very nice wrapping paper.  I cut the handles off of the bag and coiled them into rosettes.  With a few drops of super glue, they were done in an instant. I used one of the rosettes in place of a typical bow to add a punch of red for Valentine's.  I feel the end result is clean, simple and elegant.   I ended up using the other rosette to make a hair clip.  It was as simple as slipping a bobby pin through the underside threads of the rosette and securing it with a a little glue.  I feel it's an easy way to make good use of shopping bags that otherwise lay around.
