I got this amazing idea from some other blogger and I can't for the life of me remember who.
These are recycled paper grocery bags sewn cleverly into mailing envelopes. So smart.
I sewed a big batch of them over the weekend with all of the bags I've collected from when I forget my reusables. My etsy store is set for a good while with recycled mailers and I'm pleased as punch.
They are two ply so for cushion a folded up plastic bag can be inserted between the layers. I love it.
If anyone knows where this was originally posted, please send me a link. I'd love to post it here.
What a great idea.

I think the original poster of this idea may be the Eco Etsy Team.
Here's their tutorial
