No, not that kind of accent, Paul Rudd.

Take, for example, bows on bags. A cute option for a parting gift, or a party favor.

Thread a strip of gingham ribbon through a hole in a rustic lunch bag, and fill it with [Unnamed Candy Brand] for good measure. Steal one to snack for yourself to snack on for a quick pick-me-up during an evening's festivities.

3. Calligraphied Items

Come on, you know those years of fastidious penmanship would come in handy, so work those dainty digits and create a custom message for a friend or loved one, and print it on anything you want: maybe a small gift tote for holding your {Unnamed Candy Brand]?
