How to Make St.Patrick’s Day Chip Bags

Get the 5 free downloadable St.Patrick’s Day Chip bags in our resource library.
- Print the designs on very thin glossy photo paper or glossy brochure paper.
When Printing – Select: Borderless (fill page), Specialty paper Glossy and High-quality print. You may have other selections available, but these are the most important.
This chip bag design fits a standard chip bag – the size of the finished bag is 5.5 inches wide and 8.5 inches tall. Depending on the air in the bag of chips, a 28-gram bag fits nicely.
- Lightly fold the printed design so that the image is centred on the front and the center back seam has an overlap, wide enough for the double-sided tape.
Using Double-Sided Tape
- Run a line of double-sided tape on the unprinted side along the bottom and the back seam.
- Press the seams together, making sure the paper is straight and the seams are even.
- Insert a bag of chips into the bag.
- Run a line of double-sided tape along the inside of the bag along the top edge. This can be tricky, but you only need to do one side of the seam.
- Press the top edge together.
Using a paper Crimper
- Once all seams are pressed flat, insert the end of the bag into the paper crimper and turn the handle. Do not crush the chips. Just add a few crimp lines.
- Repeat with the other end of the bag.
Share and enjoy!
Using Glue instead of Tape
I recommend using the double-sided tape, but if using glue, allow all of he seams to completely dry before crimping. A thin bead of hot glue dries quickly. add extra time for drying. Be careful to make sure no glue seeps out into your paper crimper.
