Sprout Chicago How To – Eco Envelopes

May 18, 2009 by Minnie 4 Comments

cereal-6OOO! I need to go make one of these cool eco envelopes out of an empty cereal box right now! Actually I might change it up a bit to make packaging for my booth at Maker Faire.

I can’t wait for more episodes of the Lean Green Crafting Machine!

    Such a neat idea! We usually recycle our cereal boxes and we have a-plenty! We’re cereal killers here.

    The Sprout Chicago website is undergoing some sort of transformation. This tutorial is now in its archives.

    I suspect they used a heavy duty/denim needle in sewing the envelop together.

    Now off to the recycling bin for ammo!

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
