Paper-Bag Wigs
You will need: paper bag with flat bottom, scissors, and pencil.
Cut square section from wide, unseamed side of bag (see illustration).
Now make wig into whatever style pleases you. For bangs, cut 1/2″-wide (1.25 cm) fringes across top of cut-out square.
Cut deeper fringes around bag’s open bottom. Roll fringes around pencil and hold for a minute or two. When you unwind fringes, they’ll be curly.
