A very good Thread - Classic Threads: Making seed packets

This is a very good Thread. It will give me something to do in the cold winter months for seed saving next year.

Nature Walker - I printed out some of the seed packets from what Dave's Garden offers, and then got a feeling for the design, and then made some of my own, on Print Shop, where I could print two regular sized ones on one piece of regular sized paper.

Although I like making them personal that way, I am hoping I can find some small coin sized envelopes that are WHITE (not canary yellow) and then use labels to post the info and pics on from there. I think it would be easier (no more cutting and glueing).

Karrie - If you find the white ones, let me know where. I'd prefer them over the yellow also. Right now I'm using the little zip lock baggies with a piece of p. towel inside to prevent any moisture problems. Haven't had any problems so for but would prefer paper.

Try some of these coin shoppes in your area Karrie. Or WalMart sells the clear plastic envelopes in their craft section (near the fabric).

rikerbear,

I just went to wally-world today and picked up 2 packs; that's 35 miles from here.
I had an appointment nearby anyway, and stopped for some groceries too.

But I'd like the idea of the 'small coin sized envelopes that are WHITE (not canary yellow)'
Do you think office-max or staples would carry them, Mark?

Not sure if OfficeMax or Staples would, but small coin shops or stamp collectors should....or maybe craft stores

you can also check at papermart.com

i buy there mini zip loc bags... they might even have some coin envelopes........

rikerbear,

wally-world (AKA: WalMart) sells the clear plastic envelopes in their craft section (near the fabric).

Yes I know; and they are 2" x 3", 100 count for only 97 cents.
They also have different sizes if you need them.
