cactusladycandles Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I use cello bags to put my pillars and ball candles in for selling purposes. I need a way to package other candles I make when a customer makes a purchase at a swapmeet I am doing. I have tealights, votives, and tart melts. Can I use regular sandwich bags from the grocery store to put these in. I think I read somewhere that using these bags will suck the scent out. I can't depend on a customer taking them out of the bag when they get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dana Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 No, you can't trust the customer! I buy mine from papermart.com They are the best price for what I need. You will want the polypropylene. They will not absorb the scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusladycandles Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Thanks, Dana. I was just at papermart. I saw the zipper bags. Will order some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusladycandles Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Dana, I have another question. I have some bags I bought years ago from papermart. They are heavier than cello bags and have a milky look. Are these polyethylene bags and can I use them for candles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cactusladycandles Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 I answered my own question. I looked at an unopened box and it says "PP". So they are polypropylene bags. Solved my problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
