SEED SACKS

What do you store your seeds in?

I've been on the lookout for some interesting envelops

to store mine in from one year to the next.

Someone told me paper was the best thing

to use to keep your seeds healthy.

When you can't find what you want...

just make it!

What do you think of my seed sack clothes line?

This is the inside of my

craft closet door.

Last time I was at Tuesday Morning I found some
paper products on their clearance isle.
I grabbed a couple of packs of scrapbook paper
and some drawer liner paper.
At the time I didn't have a plan,
I just bought it because it was such a good deal.


I'm thinking now
I might try to fashion some origami cranes
from the drawer liner paper.




I started my seed sacks using a sheet of double
printed 8x8 paper.





Decided on the width and folded in.



Folded in the remaining edge.



I wanted my sacks to be four and a half inches
wide so I did some measuring and allowed
for a half inch seam allowance.



Did some cutting and rounded the corners.

Folded in for gluing.

I used my newest best friend

Mod Podge.

Wrote out some labels.

I decided not to attach them.

This way I can reuse.

So there you have it...

all that's left is the clean up.
