Some of the envelopes are colour coded to the contents too.

Yeah. There’s loads of how to’s on YouTube.

I find T&M and other seed companies catalogs very good for making them  Big Grin .

A reminder to stock up on stamps before 1st January when they'll be a huge increase in prices.
You will always need "Large Stamps" for seed swaps because of the thickness of the seeds in a letter.

The price of first-class stamps will rise by up to 14p in the new year, Royal Mail has announced. Below we round-up what's happening and what you can do to try to cut costs.

From 1 January 2021, stamp prices will increase as follows:

A first-class stamp for a standard letter will rise by 9p (12%) from 76p to 85p.
A second-class stamp for a standard letter will rise by 1p (2%) from 65p to 66p.
A first-class stamp for a large letter will rise by 14p (12%) from £1.15 to £1.29.
A second-class stamp for a large letter will rise by 8p (9%) from 88p to 96p.
A standard letter can weigh up to 100g and measure a maximum of 24cm x 16.5cm x 5mm. Meanwhile, large letters can measure 35.3cm x 25cm x 2.5cm, but still have to weigh 100g or less – if they weigh more, you'll have to pay extra.

VC, sorry I've been run off my feet. I will bag up mine on the weekend if that's ok?

As I've not gone anywhere - cakes are presents. It's been a hard slog.

A lovely neighbours 70th this weeknd too so I'm busy making a very special cake.

Just a heads up for those that don't go out much and get food shopping delivered. Most supermarkets sell books of stamps - regular and large.
