I have recently fallen in love with handmade glassine bags!

Check out this DIY Custom Glassine Bags tutorial to see if this is the challenge for you!!

So I thought we could make and decorate our own glassine bags and swap them with like minded crafters.

Here are your swap details:

  • Make 2 glassine bags (any size you like) & decorate them any which way you like
  • Put a handmade item inside each bag
  • Send in a pretty envelope (decorated handmade or store bought)

2 partners for this one. 10 days to sign-up and 2 weeks to make

For decoration think: - Washi tape - Lace - Ribbon -Bakers twine - Stamped images

For handmade item think: - Card - Bookmark -Project life / card front card - ATC

I hope you enjoy it. Please only join if you intend to complete. As always, if you have any question, don't hesitate to ask.

I've never heard of glassine paper is it the same as baking paper? That you use to line trays in the oven?

what kind of paper are you using? i have found that i cant buy wax paper in the supermarket up here anymore. i bought some homebrand greaseproof paper but i think it might not work.

I think it is the greasproof paper, maybe double it perhaps for strength?

Hi all, Wax paper, grease paper any and all will do..just to get that beautiful sheer look... try even vellum (more expensive though) Also, 2 bags for 2 partners just to clarify. Keep those questions coming if you are not sure!! Happy to talk. xxA
