Where do you get these boxes? Excuse my naivety, but I cannot picture them.

Great idea! I will check this out today when I'm out.

tessagin, the bags look like this:

It is kind of odd, but they do the trick...they are just more expensive than I'd like. I like them because they are semi clear so I can put my picture/pattern in the front and still see whats in it. It is a 12" x 16" made by Alvin. These are $4.19 as an Amazon addon item

I have made simple stitched bags before, but they end up taking more time/money than the quick zip solutions. I do use them when I am traveling because they look nice.

What other solutions do you guys use?
