Perfect

I got this specifically for a money envelope challenge , has really been helping me save.

I did an exhaustive search for the right sized envelope for a special project I'd been working on for my church, when I came upon these awesome little envelopes! I really don't know how I found them, because it seemed like it took forever searching and searching through many pages, and nothing seemed to fit the size that I was looking for. Unfortunately, I'd made the little note cards before thinking about looking for the correct size that would fit them. (Message to self: always do research for things like this beforehand.) Well, I was almost at the end of my rope trying to find a good fit, when I happened upon these perfect envelopes. I decided to order them and if they didn't work, I'd just send them back. I'd found some other envelopes at a thrift store the day before my order arrived, and I was going to settle for them, but when I started packaging everything, I decided to open up the package of colorful envelopes to see if they'd work----perfect fit! The note cards I made were from an 8 1/2" X 11" piece of paper, divided into 9ths. Each card, as you can see by the pictures fit perfectly into the envelopes with enough room to spare. The lighter colors, (ivory and pale green) were a little more see-through, but altogether, they made a colorful display for my project! I even had enough room to make a hole punch in each to add the ribbon ties. I highly suggest these envelopes for little 3" X 4" note cards!

They are thin but if careful it isnt a problem. If you seal it, its a one time use... for seeds or other small, lightweight things... variety of colors is great. These arent the thicker money envelopes...

These are great colors, you get tons of them and they are perfect for something like kids playing mail or sending notes to friends... they'd work well for sorting stickers, putting a couple of business cards together, or maybe putting a few bills and some change in so you can hand it to the kids quickly. HOWEVER, you would not want to rely upon these for something that is 3 dimensional. They are the thinnest envelopes I have ever felt in my life. Transparent glassine envelopes are stronger that these would be. You get tons for the money so I would recommend them, just don't plan on using them for anything heavy like coins, hardware like screws, or beads because they will most definitely wind up with holes if they are moved around, put in a pocket. As an adult I could put my beads or small jewelry items in them to make sure they weren't lost, but I wouldn't give anything to my kids in them other than a fun lunch note. :) You get what you pay for and while I was surprised at how thin they are, I shouldn't have been.
