    Awesome video for repurposing a brown paper bag and love how you use it all up immediately. I have the tendency to hoard a lot of the recycling items and then run out of space to keep them.

    I love working with paper bags too. I have made a whole journal completely out of paper bags and it is one of my favorites that I have made. I like the ideas you put in this video though. I need to try making some ephemera with the bags. And Ms. Bara is also one of my fave actresses of old silent films. She was one of the first to introduce the Gothic style in acting roles.

    • @imagesbykim

      Thankyou Bethany, yes Theda was an amazing actress, and so stunning for her time. Sadly most of her films didnt survive.
      Paper bags are a favorite of mine too. Happy creating!

    Great ideas Kim. I really like the idea of printing on them. I don't get many brown paper bags but I just recently found out that the brown packing paper that Amazon uses, is perforated in 8.5" intervals so makes for fabulous journal pages! And I save a ton of them!

    • @imagesbykim
      @imagesbykim  2 роки тому

      Ohhh yes I love amazon pkging. A ton will be alot of ironing! But the results through the printer will be awesome. Happy creating darlin!

    Hello it looks like your cutter is much sharpen then mine. Can you share which is it ? Love the paper brown bags also..

    • @imagesbykim
      @imagesbykim  Рік тому +1

      Thankyou Gili! My paper cutter is called PaperStation and is a very old vintage one. If I was to recommend a cutter, i would check your local antique shops and look for a wooden one. Just like the school ones back in the day. Make sure it has the grooves or markers in the would for measurement. And try to find one larger than 12" x 12" It may cost you 100.00 depending on where you live, and you might have to get the blade sharpened. But you will never need another cutter again in your lifetime.
