Six Pocket Ideas to Make from Junk Mail Window Envelopes

Here are more fun ideas for using those ever-multiplying junk mail window envelopes. In addition to gluing these into your journal as pockets or tucks, you could also use them as flips or create a flap at the top to use them as over the page pockets. Let your imagination run with the ideas that I provide and have fun.
In this video from about a year ago, Can I Make Tags Resembling Embossing without an Embossing Machine?, I share ideas I had for creating the texture and/or similar look of embossing without using an embossing machine. I hope you find it helpful. Here's the link: • Can I Make Tags Resemb...

Here is the link to the poll on my community post to vote on how I should finish the pocket I am undecided about. youtube.com/@lindaspaperworks?si=w1G2R9RAgb3An1HT I’d love to have your input.

I love your envelopes - all of them, but especially the sweet “feed sack” design - so cute.

[@lindaspaperworks]

Thank you, Kathleen. It was funny how the more I worked on it the more it reminded me of a dress. Thank you for watching.

I think if you ignore the window and use the back, make a dress and shirt from the envelopes. You made collars already. Tags could be journaling cards and still go inside the top. I would make armholes for the dress and spread the bottom as the skirty part. Add a tie for the shirt if masculine.

Very cute idea. Thank you for the suggestion. Would be perfect in a fashion themed journal. Thanks for watching and for your comment. Love it.

I am so thankful to have stumbled on your post! I've been saving those envelopes for ages and have a drawer full! I am so grateful for your wonderful suggestions! Thank you so much!

Tie or bowtie.

[@lindaspaperworks]

Either would be cute. I think I need to use this idea in my upcoming Uncle Rip journal. Thank you for the suggestion.

Thanks for sharing! Best wishes for success at your craft fair.

the one window could look like stained glass if you put something colourful behind it i like the idea of making/using the cut offs!

[@lindaspaperworks]

That would be very pretty. So many ways to decorate these. Those cut offs do make nice little pockets and things. Thanks for your comments.
