Right after Christmas, there was a box from Costco on my porch. I didn't order anything from Costco. Inside the box were two boxes of fine Swiss chocolates, 42 pieces in each box. 84 pieces of chocolate! I live alone! They were from my daughter in law's mother, bless her heart. I have been sharing the chocolate with everyone. Also in the box were these popcorn bags but they didn't hold popcorn; tChey held freezer packs to keep the chocolate fresh. I immediately thought, 'I need to save these bags, I'll use them for something.' Hark, I'll suggest a popcorn challenge for the F4A today and use the bags. I created a double tag and a gift bag, using Club Scrap's circus stamps. One of them says, 'After years of jumping through hoops, juggling schedules, and walking a fine line, I should join the circus.' There is also a card in the second picture, business size, that uses one bag as a gift bag. I have a friend who loved the circus parade when it came to Milwaukee all those years and I think I'll give them to her. Pop on over to the F4A today and take a peek.

Yes, you absolutely had to save those bags! What a great treasure! And what a nice gift to receive and share
I guess we never really grow out of liking the packaging the best of the gift. I have some Tiffany boxes that I use a whole lot more than the crystal bowls that came in them. LOL!

Cute projects, Jean. I would have saved these bags too. What fun, and you've used them in a really nice way. Not sure what you will put inside, but it should be fun to receive this bag~ Oh, and thanks for the idea!
