So I showed you how to turn one BIG bubble mailer into smaller ones... what about making your own bubble mailers?  Just as easy!


You'll need:

• craft paper/ thick paper (I got this floral paper from Dollar Tree- a big roll!)
• bubble wrap (You can get this at Dollar Tree, too!)
• spray adhesive/ glue
• sewing machine

Start by measuring your paper to the size you'd like your mailer to be.  Mine is 8" x 10", but you can make any size you'd like!  Cut one piece shorter- the bigger piece has extra space on top for the closure flap.


On the wrong side of the paper, cut bubble wrap to fit (minus the flap) and glue in place.  Spray adhesive would work best, but I used Mod Podge and it worked fine.  I also glued the bubble wrap with the flat side up- that's the way commercial bubble mailers are set up, so monkey-see, monkey-do.


 Once the glue is dry, place the pieces, bubble wrap sides together, and sew around the edges just like in my previous Bubble Mailer post.


Ooo, pretty!  A new take on brown paper packages, tied up with string...

These really are a few of my favorite things! :)
