I use the plastic strip that comes around heavy packages. It's free!

What do you make to use the boning in?

Walker bags and thread catchers.

The trash bag idea is great except I can't reach in the back if I am driving :(

The slats from mini blinds works great and you can snip a piece off the bottom and never know it is gone

You could also use a metal tape measure. I have a pattern for snap purses using that stuff. Haven't don it yet, but going to someday. 8')

Is there a pattern that you really like? Do you think most any pattern could have the snap added? I haven't made a purse yet but it's on my list of things to do.
