Easy Reusable Snack Bags

July 12, 2011 9:05 am

Oh my cuteness. How I’ve held off on making these for so long is beyond me. I’ve heard about these forever but for some reason they kind of weirded me out. We try hard to be ‘green’ in many areas so I’ve been packing the kids snacks in glass tupperware. But man, their lunch boxes are heavy! I’ve  missed the baggies. So here we go. Make some. So easy and . And more importantly, adorable.

Make a fabric pocket.

Make a same size pocket out of food sake nylon. I knwo you can use plain cotton or food safe vinyl. After researching it, I went with the 100%vinyl because it’s the most foodsafe.

Then you know this part. Put them right sides together, sew them, turn them right side out. Then I attached some velcro at the top. Shazaam. You’re done. They even make almonds look cuter.

I used different fabrics for the front and backs.

Happy snacking!
