How to Print on Paperbags

K bee's 6th birthday is coming up soon and I needed goodie bags, but wanted to make my own and also didn't want to do a lot of cutting and pasting. I like to make things inexpensive as much as possible, so I look around the house to find things I can make before resorting to buying. So with that said, I found some lunch paper bags that I've had for awhile and made them into simple goodie bags for K bee's class! I went ahead and printed on them. 


Printed Paperbags (by using Word): 


  • Open up Microsoft Word and go to Page Layout. 
  • Go to "Size" and change the size to 5"x10", which is the lunch paperbag size I have. 
  • Depending on where you want your message to go, type your message. Then PRINT! 
                                                     
I had to do some testing on which way the paper bags should be inserted so the right side gets printed. You're going to want to want to feed with the flap side up and top of the bag towards the printer in order to get the correct side printed. 

Pretty Easy!
