Where can I get tiny resealable bags for seeds? I've ordered some seeds from seedfest and would like to be able to split packets to pass on.
Stationers (wh smith ?) do 'dinner money' envelopes and cash envelopes. They are brown and about the size of a cigarette packet if I remember correctly.
try craft shops if you have any near you, I would imagine they have them for storing beads etc. If not do as Baggy suggested and buythe smallest envelopes you can find. :)
Adam13 came in useful for something, just looked through what he had been buying....seed bags!

If you dont want 1000 im sure you can split them between a few people on here.
i will ahve 100 or so and send you some moeny to your paypal acocunt etc. if your willing to split them!
Search for ziplock bags on ebay, that's what I did
I' planning on buying from http://www.polysupplies.com/index-g.html
Take a look at their price structure, it's cheaper to buy 6000 than 2000!!!!! Very odd.
I can get a regular supply of plastic camera film cases which are quite good for storing seed, PM me if you want some
I've ordered some from ebay £1.19 for 100. Should keep me going for a while ;D
In the past I've blagged a number of used 35mm film cases from one of the photo processing units in the local supermarket (free, because they just chuck 'em) - these are air tight and light fast so are good for storage. I was concerned that they might make the seeds sweat and go moldy but they diddn't seem to - if you were worried you could put a bit of tissue or kitchen roll in there too. Dont forget to label them!!! (or keep can in the opened seed packet so you have planting instructions to hand)
Money bags from the bank can be used. I make little foil squares though out of your common or garden tin foil roll :)
I suppose if you pop into your bank where you have an account with and ask them for some money bags they would give you some free maybe?
Personally I like the little tiny brown envelope's like BAGGY was describing. They are great for seeds as I like to harvest and collect my own seed. Then store then in mt refrigerator.

I use tupperware boxes for storing my own seed in the fridge but when I ship it out on the seed swap I use my foil squares
Some very good ideas, thanks
