You have been on a hosting rampage and I’m loving all of your ideas!!

But I don’t even know where I would find this for purchase. Office max? Oy. I wish big box stores sold things in the size of ‘in case of emergency, break glass’ like they did for cigarettes in the 80’s.

Walmart is the least expensive. And sometimes they have them at the Dollar Tree.

@splendorpursuit you can buy a package of these envelopes at your local dollar store, usually in the craft aisle.

Hello all! @splendor pursuit, it seems you have received great advice on where to get manila envelopes. Yes, the Dollar store is perfect. You can get them at other grocery stores and office supply stores as well.. Join in!
