  15. P.S. I think I'm going to try mine with oilcloth since I have it on hand, but I really like your idea to use the mylar bags as a liner. :)

  17. Thanks a lot for this tuto !
    I havn't understood the whole article : how do you get the fabric that will be inner the bag ?
    (my english is so far away .... I expect someone who speaks french could explain me ...)
    I think that you recycle empty cake wasting, didn't you ? you can ungloss with an iron, is that right ?

    Sorry, i m a little bit lost ....

  18. Instead of getting the mylar bags from chips and stuff. I went to my local coffee shop and got some of the bags the coffee comes in. The bags are huge. I got 3 sandwich bags and 2 snack bags out of one :)

  20. These are wonderful! I attempted one with a slightly different design. The mylar works great, I am just trying other ideas for finishing the edges of the snack bags. I have linked to your blog in my post. Thanks so much for sharing this great idea!
