4Position the strap at the marked point and tuck the pointed end of the strap inside.

StepInstruction
1Insert the drawstring from the side of the bag, weaving it in and out through each hole (one hole in, one hole out).
2When you reach the end, leave the last two holes open. Thread the drawstring out through the space of the last stitch in the second-to-last hole.
3Repeat the same process with the other drawstring on the opposite side.
4After threading, there will be two short ends of the drawstrings left on each side. Pull both ends outward to tighten and shape the bag into a lucky bag form.
5Tie the two ends on each side into a slip knot. This will make the bag look neater and more polished.
