Can anyone please tell me where I can buy these twines?
They remind me of the red & white twine carrier on the letter-pressed printed paper bags during my childhood. I wonder why the retailers don’t make paper bags like these anymore. Aren’t they better than plastics? I am obsessing over kraft papers now and if I can get these colourful twines, I can make paper bags like the old days, minus the printing 😉 I have been on the lookout for mothers day gifts and would like to use these twines to decorate the presents that I plan to wrap with kraft paper. Appreciate if you could let me know. Thanks a bunch.
Old skool paper bag

It’s been long enough since I last saw those paper bags….
Agree with Yvonne. Can find it at old bazaar, or those shops selling threads/ribbons…

Paper bags are more expensive I reckon, plastic bags apparently save more budget!^^
No idea… perhaps you should Google and shop online!
