Cinnamon Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Some of those clear cellophane bags to put my spiced Christmas Nuts in? Lakeland have them but they want to charge me nearly £4 to send one packet out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 You could try somewhere like a stationers or craft shop. They sell clear cellophane bags in various sizes to put finished cards in when you want to sell them. I've used them for homemade bath bombs and they just need the flap trimming off the top.

Martin B Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Oh, you'll need to go into town then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Postage and packing makes it really expensive if you can't get to a Lakeland, doesn't it. Good luck with the bag hunt, Sarah. Hope you find some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hobbycraft? Is there one near you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 There is a HobbyCraft in Reading Cinnamon. I have several packets of clear cellophane bags from a craft shop called The Range. (at least 100 bags, slight addiction, look good with mini mince pies, nuts, all sorts) Shame its a bit late now or I could have posted some to you. Hobby Craft definitely do some, they are upstairs near the card section. 20 for about a £1 ish If i remember correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
