Christmas Gifts: Sandwich Wraps, Lunch Bags, and Snack Bags


Above, sandwich wraps. The left one is open, the right closed. Below, one of the velcro bags I made. I made a bunch of various sizes as I wasn't sure what Erin or my mom wanted.

My friend Erin really wanted some homemade, waterproof lunch bags. So--I made some for her and my mom for christmas. I figured I would google search for tutorials to see if anyone had done the thinking work for me. I used these links and followed them pretty closely. The one thing I did change was I used cotton fabric on the outside and PUL on the inside so that they were waterproof. I've heard good and bad things about laminated fabrics, and I didn't want to deal with the chemicals in them...so decided to have a bit more work, but less worry. The pictures aren't too good, but you get the idea. The snack bags have velcro closures.
