Envelopes

Post by mpizzazz »

Where do you all buy envelopes? What if you only need a few of an odd size?
I've used up all my thin unwanted scrapping paper to make envelopes and I don't want to use heavy CS paper for envies.

Marianne, I buy them here

I buy A2, A6 & A7 in the 50 packs, but they do have 100 packs.

Odd size, like square? I use an A6 or A7, that way I don't have to pay the extra postage. For long envelopes, I just buy #10 envies at the dollar store.

I get mine at xpedx. All sizes and quantities that you would want they also have the clear ones that seal that I use for swapping.

Bookmarking this. I buy regular A4 size at Office Max, and I try to use up single-sided PP for anything else I need. It will be ages before I run out of that. But since you said you've already run out of that Marianne, I don't have any other suggestions for you, except to buy another slab of inexpensive PP. :tomato:

Thanks for all the suggestions. I used to buy a box or two of invitation envelopes from Staples but now I prefer to make larger cards. That was ok while I had papers to make envelopes but now I don't have much left.

I forgot to mention that I would also prefer envies made from recycled paper. I found these two places while looking around online and thought I would share.

Very good topic. I'm bookmarking as well.

I usually make envelopes that are a strange size out of that text weight paper I have tons of. Just put the printed side on the inside and you have the look of a lined envelope.
