Ecofriendly Reusable Snack Bags

I love to find new things and I am always on the look out for something different with a fun twist.  So when I discovered reusable snack bags, I had to investigate further. 


As I usually do, I find something I like and I study it, research it and then figure out how I can make it, hopefully cheaper than it would have cost to buy it.  So that is what I did with these great little snack and sandwich bags.  The one I was first looking at was made of cotton, not as easy to clean/reuse immediately as the plastic bags, but they could definitely go into the washing machine.  I found some using laminated cotton that I really liked as they are easy to clean and wipe down quickly!! Better yet, they had a food safe fabric on the inside. 


After researching them all, and the various ways to close them (that was a challenge), with some very helpful feedback from friends and family testers, this is what I have designed and I am excited to share with everyone. I plan to put them up on my website and my etsy site very soon so stay tuned!  As always, feedback is welcome and please spread the word to all your friends about these great little snack bags!  I have expect Lunch bags will be coming next...stay tuned!
