I would add to aussie sheila's post by stapling a folded paper topper to the top of each bag as decoration. I have made these for cookies that where sold at the high school bake sale. you can use a topper that is printed on your computer using your logo and or decorate it with strips of scrapbook paper and or punched items. Fold the paper over, make it the length of the bag, and staple both ends. It gives your bag a finished look. If you google bag toppers using images you will get lots of ideas.This gives a nice look without much cost.
