Hello! Sorry about the little break. My son has been off on his half-term holidays so I had a blog-free week!
Now I am back, I just want to give a big shout out (and a big thank you) to my new sponsors, pi’ikea street
(http://www.piikeastreet.com/) and paper glitter (http://www.etsy.com/shop/paperglitter)….do check their sites
out!
I also wanted to say a massive thanks to all the people who have left comments lately (and to those who have
sent me lovely emails). It’s been especially great to hear from people who have been making the projects…and
ace seeing all your pictures…hurray!
I do confess that I have always had a ‘thing’ about string-tie envelopes. They seem impossible to get hold of
though so I thought it would be fun to make my own. They are very easy to do!
These dinky little envelopes are great for all-sorts of things (storing paper ephemera, housing invitations/gift
cards, storing seeds). I have also been making some for my sons to play with (as they are obsessed with
letters/post offices at the moment). I reckon they would also make a cute gift.
By the way, now my kids are getting better at using scissors they have been really enjoying making their own
envelopes using the template (http://www.minieco.co.uk/images/feb12/heart-card-envelope.pdf) from my
previous post.
You will find a full tutorial and templates below! Happy Monday all 🙂
You will need:
Paper
Card
String
Glue stick
Scissors
Tiny brads/split pins (the heads of the brads I used were 3mm in diameter)
How-to
1. Print out the template onto paper. Cut score and fold.
Template one (http://www.minieco.co.uk/images/feb12/button-envelope-a5.pdf) (tiny envelope, print out on
A5 paper)
Template two (http://www.minieco.co.uk/images/feb12/button-envelope-c7.pdf) (C7 envelope, print on A4
paper)
2. Cut out some small, card disks. Paper will work just as well but card will be a bit more hard-wearing.
3. Using a needle, pierce two holes in the envelope and a hole in each disk (marked on template).
4. Attach card disks to envelope using brads. (If you don’t have any brads then you can sew them on. See this
tutorial at simplymodernmom.com (http://www.simplymodernmom.com/2010/05/pattern-tutorial-string-tied-
envelope/)).
5. Fold the three edges of the envelope up and glue.

6. Attach a piece of string to the top disk and tie off. Wrap round disks to fasten.
If you are not keen on the rainbow brights then I think pastel/neon would be a great combination. For
example, make a pale pink envelope with neon pink disk and string. (Note to self: must buy neon card/paper!)
Job done!

Eek! This is the perfect way to wrap those train tickets to Luxembourg I just bought for my

how it goes 😛
Thanks for the tutorial, they are super duper cute!

Hey! Could you do that larger template posting? I’m looking to make them around the size of a
normal sheet of paper to ship save the date and invites to our wedding in! 🙂 Thanks!

Wow, these are lovely, what a brilliant idea!
ANJIE
LOVE these!!!!! Might I ask where you get all of those lovely bright papers from?
KATE
Hi Anjie & JennyAnn,
The paper comes from Paperchase, which is UK company. It is available throughout Europe I
think. The range is called Spectrascope.
http://www.paperchase.co.uk/stories/international-stores/scat/interstore/
(http://www.paperchase.co.uk/stories/international-stores/scat/interstore/)
If anyone knows of any supplier of bright paper (especially in the US) please shout out!!
TARA
Paper Source in the US has bright papers.
LILILILA (HTTP://LILILILA.CANALBLOG.COM)
Thanks for this great tutorial and for the useful templates ! I’ll probably use them for regular
envelops too !
JENNYANN
I am also interested in where you get your beautiful paper….is it card stock? I live in US and regular
craft “construction paper” is not of the best quality….scrap book card stock is too stiff.
I love everything on your sweet site!
JennyAnn
KATE
Hi JennyAnne,
Answer just above 😉
APRIL RAINWATER
Perfect for saving garden seeds. I’ve been looking for a small envelope that can be resealed several
times.
CELINE (HTTP://LESPETITSPIEDSCANADIENS.BLOGSPOT.COM/)
love them ! will make some for my kids !
SARAH (HTTP://WWW.MIDNIGHTOWLMAMA.BLOGSPOT.COM)
Any tricks for cutting out your template? Yours look so perfect.
KATE
Just a pair of scissors…..
I (mis)use a small pair of embroidery scissors for all of my papercutting HTH 🙂

I love these! Thank you so much for the great tutorial!
MARY
Love, love this! Thank you
AMY
These are fantastic! Perfect for storing seeds. However I found the original template (temp. one)
wasteful. So I traced two on to a new sheet and made copies. There is also enough room to write a
quick run down of instructions. I have no idea how to make a template, I am sure the computer
will just beat me up anyway. Computers pick on me.
KATE
Amy, template one is meant to be printed on A5 paper not A4 paper so maybe that’s why you
found it wasteful? I’ll post a new .pdf tonight (with 2 small templates on an A4 sheet 😉
AMY
I printed both actually. The first temp. printed bigger for me so I used it. But I thought I was
using the right paper, temp one says a4 (next to the link) but on the actual temp. I think it did
say a5.
KATE
Ahhh yes…I had labelled it incorrectly. All sorted now. Thanks for pointing that out. (Too much
rushing!)
HOLLY KELLER (HTTP://CHEZBEEPERBEBE.BLOGSPOT.COM)

I love these string tie envelopes too! And the notion of using neons on these is brilliant….what is it
about paper? It just makes me happy…
KATE
Hi Holly. Makes me happy too! Cheap, easy, accessible, requires no specialised tools, easily
recyclable…ahh the list goes on.
I really need to invest in some neons…on the list!
HOLYHELLE (HTTP://WWW.HOLYHELLESHIMMEL.BLOGSPOT.COM)
Love this!! i am so making some!

LIIS
Hi!
I love your blog:)
Any chance you could make a bigger template that would fit a standard postcard size card?
KATE
Hi Liis,
I don’t think there really is a standard postcard size so to speak. Let me know your specific
dimensions and I will see if I can fit one onto an A4 template 🙂
LIIS
Hehe, sorry:)
By a standard postcard size I meant 10,5 x 14,8 cm. I hope you can fit it on an A4.
ELLEBLUE
I have also loved string tie envelopes, just not the boring color. Now I can make my own stunning
array of colored ones, thank you!
CARO (HTTP://WWW.URBANVEGPATCHBLOGSPOT.COM)
These are both beautiful and useful, thank you! Like the others, I’d find them useful for seeds. I’ve
often wondered what I could make with those beautiful Paperchase papers, now I know! But …
Where do you get your bright string? Is it wool or embroidery floss?
KATE
Hi Caro…it’s called “DFN craft thread”…if you google it you will see it. It’s like a thick embroidery
floss 🙂
DEBORAH K
Thank you for the great tutorial and the templates!
CATHERINE
I would have loved making these; however, we don’t have A4 paper that I can find in the U.S. Don’t
even know what size that is. I wish I had a template for a 6×9 envelope like this. That would be
heaven.
KATE
Hi Catherine,
A4 paper is just the standard sized paper that you put in your printer. I’ll try and post some
additional templates over the weekend 🙂
CATE HOLST (HTTP://WWW.GOMAKEME.COM)

Fabulous! I love the templates, thanks
AILEEN NELMS
I love this! I make my own envelopes to send my letters off and this would be a nice change. Thank

CANDICE DE ROOIJ (HTTP://WWW.CANDICEDEROOIJ.BLOGSPOT.CON)

Can not wait to make the envelopes.

They are from england. Educational art and craft supplies . http://Www.educationalart.co.uk

They are very easy .

Good luck
KATE
Ooooh thanks for the tip Candice…they look great!
DEBBIE JENNIGNS
These are awesome! I have made some similar envelopes, but not with the tie closure. I love these!
Thank you so much for showing me how to make these. I do love my paper crafts. =)
Have you done any of the paper embroidery for cards? It is a lot of fun and I have gotten many
many compliments on the cards that I have sent out.
KATE
Hi Debbie…thanks for the message. Paper embroidery definitely on my list. Have been trying a
few things out over the last few months but nothing good enough to post!! Next week I may have
another stab at it and see what I can come up with!
Do you have a blog? Would be nice to see your examples!

My gosh, that is a-dor-a-ble! I love, love, love it! Love your colors too, and the way you keep them
so consistent throughout the site. Did I say that once before? Well, it impresses me every time.
I also love string envelopes. I made a little string-envelope-style box

(http://www.cuteanduseful.com/content/2011/12/20/advent-by-mail-15-boxes.html) coming up
near Christmastime last year. Not as brightly colored as yours — for fun, mine were kind of
military (I’m a trumpet player in the Army Reserve).
You brightened my day! Thanks!

using split pins but still gives a finished look? Thanks for sharing the tutorial!

Love your template!!! The colors are what had me sold!

I have a card that’s basically one quarter of an A3, so basically 210×148.5 mm (approximately, of
course). Do you think you could make a template for that size? (It’s either that and spend the
evening cutting envelopes with friends or shelling 100 bucks for plain white envelopes. I’ve done
the math…. 🙂 )
Would be super appreciated!

I cannot help but notice that the envelope in the tutorial has the two flaps overlapping in the
middle of it, right below the button, whilst the envelopes shown at the beginning of the post seem
to have an uninterrupted piece of paper holding the button. Were they made using a different
template?
KATE
The joins are there…just hard to make out due to the light conditions…you can see the join on
the pink envelope in the top picture….and in the purple envelope fourth picture down.
SHERYL (?)
Thank you very much for the templates! I will try and trace them to use on my Silhoutte.
ONI (HTTP://21KITTENS.COM)
Hi,
I found your beautiful blog whilst searching for an envelope tutorial, and I have to say, this one is
very lovely!
I was wondering if you got such small brass fasteners over at Paperchase as well, or somewhere
else? I could only find the large ones at Ryman’s and WHSmith.
Thanks so much!!
KATE
Hi Oni,
I actually got mine from WHSmiths but it was about a year ago (it was quite a big branch). You
could try hobbycraft or ebay. Good luck hunting them down ^_^

I’ve only just subscribed to your wonderful blog and I notice that in these comments, there are
envelope templates for other sizes mentioned …. one per A4 and two per A4. Is there an archive
anywhere where I could see these please? I’d love to make some for my jewellery at a Christmas
craft fair …. is that ok? But the bigger 1 per A4 would be fantastic for a fine necklace. I LOVE your
owls too. Thank you!

Do you alse have an A6 template?
I would love to make these envelopes to send my birthannouncement.
Thank you, Daphne
KATE
Hi Daphne, I don’t have one. Sorry. I hope to get a standard set of envelopes on the site soon but
short of time at the moment. You should give it a go. They are easy! Make one from a piece of
card and then use it as a template to draw around. Let me know how you get on. Kate ^_^

Hello Kate,
Wonderful DIY-tutorial!
I wonder if you could help me with a template of the measurements for making an envelope in the
size of a4?
Please answer to my email in that case. [email protected]

(mailto:[email protected])
Thank you for your time.

Kindest regards,

KATE
Hi Pauline,
I’m so sorry but I am not able to make bigger templates. The best advice I can give is to take an
A4 envelope apart and trace around that to make multiple copies.
