Packaging Treats…Frenchie Style

May 18th, 2010 - by

While I’ll always be a sucker for a sweet, little Chinese takeout box, it is fun to package treats a little differently every now and again.  After I made a second batch of fleur de sel brownies, I decided to package them up for a few friends.  I challenged myself to only use things I had on hand as it is always a temptation to go out and buy fun, new supplies.  I used a few sheets of fantastic French-inspired tissue paper (I love this pattern!), sandwich bags I use in my daughter’s lunches and simple kitchen twine.  I added in some labels I picked up in France and an extra fine Sharpie to complete the look.  Here is how they turned out!

Kraft brown bags – found at Harmons, but Whole Foods may carry them as well.

Kitchen twine- IKEA (but your regular grocery store likely carries it too)

Sandwich papers- Orson Gigi (in SLC)

Labels (similar in visual appeal as ones below) – Paper Source

Pen – standard grocery store or art supply store (locally Reuels has a lot of pens)
