I asked for them back this year! Dh's family always laughed when I saved bows and gift bags so I didn't really think they would be reusing them. Ds's teacher went crazy for the gift bag part of her gift this year. It turns out that her aunt made them before she passed away so I made her a set of gift bags as a gift. It turned out great, and I included a tag that said to gift or use as you choose.
