reusable sandwich wrapper (pink gingham and flowers)

Description

you pack a sandwich for lunch on a regular or at least semi-regular basis and you use a disposable plastic sandwich bag and you feel a little guilty about it every time. you try to wash out those ziplock bags and reuse them, but it doesnt always work out that way, because a gob of peanut butter gets stuck in a corner or you just plain dont feel like it. get one of these instead! it's way more pretty and way more cool and way easier.

you wrap your sandwich up like you're swaddling it in a blanket or tucking it into an envelope. there's a hook and eye on the inside closures to keep it snug and then the other part is adjustable -- fold the flaps to fit your sandwich and wrap the elastic over the buttons to keep it closed. at lunch time, you've got a placemat on which to rest your sammy between bites. when you're finished, wipe it off with a damp cloth (or all out wash it in the sink if your sandwich was really messy) and it's ready to be used again the next day. awesome, right?

the sandwich wrap is made of two layers of durable, impermeable oilcloth material sewn together. the edges are pretty pretty scallop cut. the buttons are vintage. (*please note -- buttons will be different than those pictured. they'll be a little more plain, but still good!) the elastic is a simple common hair elastic (new and unused, of course!) -- easy to replace if you lose it. (i'll send an extra one with your order just in case you lose the first one.)

i tried these with tinier-than-usual bread and i tried them with extra-large slices of fancy bakery bread -- both fit. the corners naturally fold over themselves so everything is containted inside! (i'll vouch for pb and j's being safe to carry without worrying about messy spills. if your sandwich is REALLY juicy, though, i might suggest using the sandwich wrap and then putting the whole thing into another lunch sack. -- but for your usual ham and cheeses or mozzarella and tomato sandwiches this is totally great.) for bigger sandwiches, the buttons will be further apart. for smaller sandwiches, fold one of the outside flaps under and bring the buttons closer together and wrap the elastic two or three times.

okay -- that's it. there are more photos of these in action (and the story behind them) on my blog: chezsucrechez.blogspot.com

email me if you have additional questions!
*yes, the sandwich in the photos is quite a fake one. but trust me, i've tried it with several real sandwiches -- i just dont always have sammy fixin's in the house for photos, so i use this instead!
