This review is almost identical to the one I left for the same product with owls, as I purchased both at the same time.

While I love the graphics as I most often do with Cavallini products the actual items are a bit of a let-down in terms of quality and execution.

First, the actual paper bags are extremely thin. One must take great care not to rip them, I should think, and I found it personally rather stupid that someone had come up with the idea to clip the paper bags together with a standard paper clip (completely unnecessary, in my opinion, and these leave noticeable indentations in at least the first 3 bags).

My second frustration is with the gift tags which, while very nice and made of good quality cardstock, have poorly applied glitter which basically snows all over you almost as soon as you open the package, and comes off all over your hands anytime you handle the tags, begging the question whether any glitter will be left if/when they are to be used for a gift-giving occasion.

The presentation overall is quite nice, and because I do enjoy the images and have various projects in mind for this, I will be keeping them but I would caution any potential buyers that this is not necessarily a value-for-money product, as you may be better off making your own paperbags from good quality scrapbooking paper or cardstock.
