CLEVELAND, Sept. 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Every pile of birthday gifts waiting to be opened, collection of Christmas packages under the tree and table of presents at any party has that one gift everyone notices because of its exceptional appearance. There is a sense of pride when that gift is from you because you've brought the coolest-looking gift.  At the next celebration, make your gift the standout with new Warm Fuzzies™ gift bags from American Greetings to take gift-giving to a new level of awesomeness.

Add some fun – and fur! – to any gift with Warm Fuzzies. Each of these stylin' new gift bags is a festive combination of googley eyes and long, brightly-colored faux fur that come in a variety of shapes, sizes and a rainbow of colors.  These premium, sewn fabric bags help recapture the magic of gift giving with a presentation that is part of the gift itself.  Beginning in mid-September, Warm Fuzzies will be available at select retail locations.
