I ordered 6 sets of these, 18 Zip 'n' Stash storage pockets total to store supplies for online classes and retreats all together. No more having to search for the event booklets, dies, stamps and stencils individually. What a time saver and stroke of organizational genius! In short order, all 6 sets were here. A few days later, I found that the three sets that I had not used yet, were gone.
I was able to identify the thief immediately as I also noticed that a package of toilet paper, two bananas and an apple were missing. I called my daughter who confessed after a feeble attempt to proclaim her innocence. My daughter teaches music lessons at several different venues and she is in love with these. She was using the teal colored ones for paperwork for her home studio students, the yellows for her community orchestra students and the blue for the music school students. She and I both love how well made and durable they are and with them being see thru, she can tell at a glance whether the contents are forms to fill out, worksheets or informational handouts. She feels they look much more professional than the colorful folders she buys in the back to school section of the big box stores and work so much better. Her materials are protected so that they don't get roughed up inside her large tote bag that she uses to transport supplies from site to site.
I have really enjoyed the 9 of them that my daughter left behind. They work wonderfully for storing all of the supplies for each event I have purchased. They are big enough that everything fits easily inside and I love how durable they are. After finding out how my daughter was using them, I started thinking of other uses as well -- storing documents for an upcoming vacation, keeping financial records together for this year's taxes, packing small items when I travel (think toothbrush, meds, nail clippers, address book, pen, etc.), and more.
Since chances are slim that I will ever see the ones that my daughter claimed, I will need to place another order. Yes, in the last few years I have attended quite a few virtual events but I never anticipated how many other ways that the Zip 'n' Stash storage envelopes could be so useful. Thank you Altenew for another well thought out quality product.
I had a stamp camp to go to where everyone had to bring a "Shoe Box" project. All the stamping items I needed to create my card project (pads, tools, adhesive, etc.) was in the storage pouch. The other storage pouch had my card project packets. I accidentally dropped my box. I didn't have to worry that I may have lost an item. It was all in the storage pouches. Need to buy more....
Loved the zip 'n' stash pouches... first I was wondering about the price point, but when I saw the difference in quality in these vs. the online generic ones, I knew! The zippers work smooth as butter and the bags feel way softer - much much different from the generic ones...so, if you want quality I would go with these bags... and these are great for travel too - so don't just think craft bags... great gift item for a traveller or crafter - Bottomline: Love the product!
This was a free gift and I love it. It’s perfect to hold my stencil grip mats keeping them free from dust
These are great for keeping parts together for projects until assembly, so handy have shared with my crafting buddies.
