13 x 13 Vinyl Envelopes

[sylviad]

I keep my DSP in 13x13 vinyl envelopes that I had been purchasing at Michaels and now they don't sell them any more! Not even online. I tried searching the internet for these, but can only find one place that sells them and they are the button and string closures and they want $4 each! Yikes! The ones I got at Michaels were, as near as I can recall, 5 for $10? They snap shut and I just love them. I can see my paper and they stand in a plastic tub in my craft room. I put a white plastic label at the top of each, indicating the name of the paper series. I reeeeally don't want to start over with another storage system for DSP. Any ideas where I could find these? :

Now that I am thinking of it, the Michaels price was $19.95 for 5 and I used a 40% off coupon.

Oh no! I started using these as well and love them! Hope we can find a source for more.
I checked the link above, but can't tell if the sides are gusseted, like the ones from Michael's.

The description below the item says they expand to 1 1/2" so it sounds like it is gusseted. BUT, it also says it comes as a package of five (different colors) and the item is described as a 10 pack. So, not sure the if the description is wrong or the item (above the description) is wrong.

Thanks, ladies! I searched Amazon, but didn't find them. Don't know why! I wish they were all clear, but then if wishes were horses, beggars would ride! I'm just glad someone could find them. I just love Splitcoasters!

A suggestion. You could use the walnut creek hot tool to make your own vinyl pockets. I bought my tool for doing this recently but haven't used it yet. ��. I had seen videos on YouTube that showed how to do it

Here's the clear ones:

But they have the string closure. Looks like that's the way Generations has gone. They're thinner that way...

It doesn't look like they are gusseted either.

The info on the package says they expand to 1 1/2 inches.
