Candlelovr Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Im looking for bags for pillars and I need different sizes, that I can tie off at the top. I will check walmart for the raffia. I would also like to check into shrink wrapping but you need a machine for that right? If someone could also let me know where to find that and about how much it costs, I would really appreciate it!TIA,Candlelovr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Have you ever tried homespun fabric to tie your bags? I buy it at WalMart for about $2.88 a yard in different colors. I cut narrow strips and use them to tie bags, around jars, etc. Looks very pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlelovr Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 WOW, that is a wonderful idea! I would still like to have raffia but I will try the fabric! I have tons of it at home, so wont have to go buy it! THanks for the idea Candlelovr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Try here, they sell both bags, raffia and many other things you will just HAVE to have. LOLhttp://www.nashvillewraps.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scented Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 There's also rustic essentuals that has a good selection of bags. You might try a google search for packaging or whatever you're looking for and see what comes up. There's a company in Calif. somewhere that has a lot of packaging stuff as well. I think it's www.papermart.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SatinDucky Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 I'm not sure what kind of bags you're looking for, for the pillars, but I use the shrink tubing. I just don't shrink it Fold the tubing over the bottom and use the warning label to hold it closed, then tie the top off with raffia. That way, I can shrink them when I want and bag them when I want with no extra supplies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
