DIY Star Wars Chewbacca Gift Bag Tutorial

DIY Star Wars Chewbacca Gift Bag Tutorial

Even if you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably noticed the Star Wars phenomenon that is happening all around the world with the latest movie release. All of my boys, including my hubby, are Star Wars cray-cray right now. Star Wars was even the theme of our family holiday card this year (you can check it out HERE)!!

So with all this Star Wars love, it was inevitable for my youngest son to get invited to a Star Wars themed birthday party. To go along with the Star Wars theme, #3Son and I decided to make a DIY Chewbacca Gift Bag filled with a gift card and some Star Wars goodies as a present for him to give to his friend at the party. Didn’t it turn out adorable?!
