I use an iron . Use parchment paper , cut the zip loc bag to the desired size , put the zip loc bag between the parchment paper , iron the edge and done.

[@dmbmeister0]

Thanks so much for this. I was trying to think how I could use an iron and the parchment paper is a great idea.

[@MsGail61]

Maybe a hair flat iron?

[@cozy_king]

What setting should I set my Iron to?

[@ritmolatino1627]

@@cozy_king look for the zip bag setting on ur iron!! lol

[@MegaTapdog]

i use my vacuum sealer to make custom bags, just make sure to experiment a bit first because the ziploc and other brands are much thinner than proper vacuum seal bags, go a few seconds at a time and open it up early, (don’t let it go full seal cycle) wait a few seconds to let it cool before removing or you will tear your seal.

[@davidlarson2534]

Over the past few years I have enjoyed your videos very much, and I learn so much! I think you should compile categorized videos (kitchen, bathroom, mud room, garage, closets, etc.) and create a DVD series. Would make for an excellent gift set. Specially for brides, graduates, housewarming and single-again men.

[@adadavis6908]

Sooo cool! I'm always looking for different size plastic baggies for travel etc... I'll be doing this from now on.

[@judyking7605]

I was looking up foods a few months ago and it said they took that out of popcorn back in the 70s

[@guadalupeblakey9926]

I also use aluminum foil and I put stainless steel cleaner and it works. But thanks so much for this tip on the bags. I use to put food in one bag but I always had to defrost all my food. Now I put them in sandwich bags what ever size portion I want the put in a larger freezer bag and it works out great. No more waste.

[@SilentNoMore64]

This is great information. As a crafter, I will be using this method to cut ziplocs down to the exact size I need for selling my pieces. It's so tiresome finding just the right size bags that will fit all the different size jewelry cards I have. Thank you so much!❤

[@w1975b]

I'd guess it can get expensive buying the right size bags also.

[@linkedinroses9447]

I use a hot glue gun without the glue sticks 😀

[@TylrVncnt]

That’s better than ruining the temper on a knife, probably much more controlled too!

[@Mandy_39]

Did u cut the bag 1st & then sealed it with the glue gun?

[@missyklein9161]

@@Mandy_39 I think she just ran the knife down the middle of the bag and it cut and sealed at the same time

[@missyklein9161]

That's really cool that that actually works LOL whoda thunk😁

[@glasshalffull8625]

I’ve done something similar as the video to return opened products to stores that say, “No returns if product is opened. “ You must be careful how you open the bag the first time. I usually cut the bottom.

[@cmdozier]

Dollar tree sells snack bags called portion bags shaped like that, but they are smaller! Love this idea!!!

[@nonatelapovorottti2889]

[@dale3404]

You can customize the bags to your specific needs.

[@CocoChanelle-1]

Didn’t know that. Thanks for the tip.

I used to do this for my kids snacks when I ran out of the store bought ones and it really does work!

Pretty sure she means ran out like, crap I only have two bags left and four kids to send snacks for.

[@stockmom5508]

I've been using my foodsaver vacuum sealer for years. We have an e-commerce store and we put our products in large ziplocs and seal them up for shipping. Protects the items incase anything gets damp during shipment.

[@teatonaz]

I like this idea using a gallon size zip lock bag to customize it for a tablet or small laptop to keep away scratches or water resistant if I’m going to be in a wet environment. Or anywhere that spills might occur. I also really like the idea of using the parchment paper and the iron someone mentioned in another comment. Thanks for this video. Cheers.!

[@caleton1032]

My dad taught me this trick about the bag over 25 years ago, I've been doing it since then, and for the knife, you can use very fine sand paper to avoid cleaners... just a thought. TFS

[@conniesmith5161]

I've used the curling iron to do the same thing to seal one side of the bag. But this is really a good hack! I wonder if I could use a Pizza roller and heat that up?

[@linzrae6509]

I love this hack. I didn't know you could do this.

[@montsergirl]

Love this hack! I’ve never done this but I am definitely going to try! These look like the perfect size bags.

[@celebrationcruisetrip5735]

I forgot about this hack 🤦🏾‍♀️. I was just looking for portion size bags. 😁 I'm happy I ran across this. I have Bag sealer 🤗

[@rachelleo485]

[@lisacollins3304]

What is so great is that you share these ideas with others. Thank You.

[@AndreaJean]

[@voguevania]

I have a wood burning tool, and a We R Makers Fuse tool. Fuse is marketed for fusing plastic, and I use it for making shaker cards. It would work great for this application, too.

[@formerx]

Really clever! Thanks for sharing it.

[@mgm2008]

Be aware that heating a knife or screwdriver, as I did can undo the hardening of the metal. My screwdriver wasn't hard anymore and it bent at the tip when I tried to use it on a screw! I was heating it to help melt ice in a non-frost free freezer 🤪

[@karenfarris4585]

You can also use just the seal option on a vacuum sealer to do this as well.

[@ourv9603]

Cool Tip- After the cut, the plastic has to HARDEN, not DRY. I love ziplock bags. I prefer the FREEZER bags as they are thicker & more robust. Quarts & 1 gallon are my go to. They do make a 2 gallon but I have not found a need for those. !

[@albertwashingtonjr2089]

Wow, what a great idea! Love it!

[@ronnetteharvey6781]

I use parchment paper and a flat iron meant for hair and if I need to reseal a chip bag then I use the parchment to protect my iron and seal the bags

[@nell3753]

Won't hold water as compared to factory edge. Tried it with sandwich and freezer bags. Freezer bag was better, but also didn't hold water. Still a great idea for very short term and maybe non-perishable dry goods.

Tip from a blacksmith. Another good reason to use an old knife...heating the steel up to the temperature indicated by the color softens (anneals) the steel. Dont expect this portion of the to hold an edge. The blade can be re-hardened but it is a procedure not recommended for the average homemaker. Nice idea for making your own bags.

[@datorres67]

That's all i could think about. If i saw someone do this to my kitchen knives i'd lose my mind.

Put cake frosting of appropriate color in the bag. Nip a corner and start piping. Heat from your hand may warm the frosting and affect the viscosity, so be careful with that.

[@stevea1217]

Thanks for making me aware of Pink Stuff! Not sure how I missed it (I'm 74, and I thought I had used most cleaners, polishes, waxes, etc.). It's a perfect gift for my daughter-in-law. We have a running joke that I get her pink gifts for birthday, Christmas, etc. So far, pink drill, jigsaw puzzle, Swiss army knife, and now, Stuff! Very cool technique on the baggies, but doesn't it destroy the hardening of the knife blade? Not that it's a big deal, a $1 kitchen knife is fairly expendable. Nice narration on the video, good job all around!

[@sundancer442]

Yes it eventually ruins the knife.

[@jenniferhill6063]

i found the pink stuff @ our local ross for 5 bucks

[@stevea1217]

Try Scrub Daddy brand’s product called Power Paste. It is more natural & I have both products & prefer it over the Pink Stuff. The Pink leaves more of a waxed finish on my metal kitchen sink than Power Paste does, but I think Power Paste cleans better. Barkeeper’s Friend powder is the cheapest but it is rough on hands.

[@BlingBug3794]

​@DVD927 I too prefer Scrub Daddy Power paste. It seems to work better. Pink Stuff seems to leave a film behind.

I would consider using a portable butane burner or gas grill burner outdoors to do this, but would not want the plastics release indoors nor breathe it as I worked. I have a table on my open air porch for doing this and a small fan to blow fumes away. I create my own slinky weights for fishing and do this set up, even when using the pencil torch or bag sealer.

[@PaulaZF]

Yes, use an old knife. You can damage the knife when you heat directly on the flame. Great ideas!
