Reasons For Using Kraft Paper Bags
If you have a few Kraft paper bags lying around somewhere, here’s how to put them to good use! Assuming you suddenly have a huge supply of staples – whether from additional purchases or a large take-out load – you can, of course, reuse them.
1. layout your trash can.
This may be the most practical option, but if you put a paper wrapper in your trash can, you can forgo plastic and give your bag another chance. Of course, don’t put liquid waste in it to avoid a future disaster on the way to the trash can…
2. Use a reusable canister.
Also, you can use one or two packs as containers for alcohol, glasses, etc.
3. Use them as capacity canisters.
If your packs look good, you can use them as storage and association containers in storage rooms and clothing closets. Just paint them the color you want and roll them up to the size you want.
4. Send your guests home with extras.
Tie one of your take-home bags so your guests don’t have to walk around with a small pile of Tupperware.
5. Make placemats.
Remove square shapes from your bags and use them as expendable placemats. If you’re worried about losing too much, use a colored pencil to mark each square. Or save your reused placemats for the kids’ table, complete with bunches of crayons to keep them busy while you enjoy your well-deserved adult time.
6. Use them to clean up wax stains.
If you have a paper bag or two on hand, you can protect your wax-stained textures and surfaces. Check out this post to learn more about it.
7. Make a cover for the gardener’s pot.
If you have more modest earthy colored paper bags, make custom growers utilizing paint as well as paint pens. You could possibly make the ideal entertainer gift or take-home gift.
8. weave a hanging gardener.
Truth be told, you can cut your bags into strips and weave them together to make a barely recognizable, reusable grower.
9. Wrap a bouquet of flowers.
Give away new blooms and spice up the show by folding them into a cut paper package. Tie with a strip or string and you’re done! 
10. fireplace sachets.
Speaking of flames: You can use them to make cinnamon-scented sachets to sweeten your fireplace for the cold season.
11. make a pendant light.
You can actually make a light fixture out of a recycled staple pack. If you don’t want it to look quite so tricky, add a coat of metallic paint to the pack.
12. cover your books.
Turn your regular books into a solid set by covering them with paper scraps to cherish them.
13. Serve snacks.
Use paper bags to serve snacks at any party or gathering! They look as incredibly natural as serving bowls, and you won’t have to wash as many dishes when the party is over:- ) Just roll the highest point of the bag down or cut it with scissors, put the nibbles you want inside, and serve!
14. Wrap a gift
You can also use a paper sack to wrap a small gift! Simply cut the package so you can spread it out horizontally and wrap your gift. Finally, fold a piece of enchanting cord over it, and the gift is ready to give! (I love the natural look of these little bundles for high-end gifts like handmade cleaning products and shower bombs). 
15. Window Cleaner
Tear open a paper bag, bundle it up, and use it to clean your windows! Many people use Kraft paper bags or paper to clean mirrors and windows because the paper leaves a build-up and no shine!
16. Collecting recycling
I generally stick to my paper bags from the supermarket that I use to collect my recycling. When the package is full, I can take the entire bag to the reuse center without moving it to or from another bin.
17. Wrap a gift
You can use a paper packet to wrap a small gift! Simply cut the package so you can spread it out horizontally and wrap your gift. Finally, fold a piece of enchanting cord over it, and the gift is ready to give! (I love the natural look of these little bundles for high-value gifts like naturally made cleaning products and shower bombs). 
18. Filler
If you can get your hands on a paper shredder, you can run a few paper bags through it to make your own filler. These little paper scraps can be used as filler for gifts or as iron-on material. You can also use them to cushion delicate items.
19. Art and crafts
Cut up a few paper packets and use them for craft projects like drawing and painting. You can also use them to protect your tabletop from messy endeavors like craft projects, egg coloring, or pumpkin cutting.
20. Faster ripening fruit
You can ripen some types of natural produce quickly by storing them in paper packaging! This works for bananas, tomatoes, pears, peaches, avocados, and several more. Just place the natural products inside, roll the bag closed at the highest point, and let it sit on the counter for a while. Organic produce gives off ethylene gas after a while, and the paper bag traps the gas inside, causing it to age faster. (This won’t work in a plastic bag, as plastic also traps moisture and causes the natural product to spoil.)
21. making homemade popcorn
If you have an earth-toned paper bag, you can make some truly heavenly handmade popcorn in your microwave! Handmade popcorn is an exceptional snack for in-between meals, and it’s even nice and firm if you don’t overdo it with the margarine;- ) All instructions for making popcorn in paper form can be found at the following link!
