Seedling pots from newspaper? Need pattern/ instructions

[NurseNettie]

I apologize to those of you at Sufficient Self-- I've cross posted here ( forgot this forum was here!)

I'm looking for a pattern to make seedling pots out of newspaper. I dont' want to buy the "pot maker" you see in catalogs-- I can't justify the cost.

Anyone with a pattern or instructions? I'd greatly appreciate the help!

I'm sorry.. I don't but I'm sure if you sat down with a cup you could figure out how to fold & tuck it..

why not use lunch bags? like the brown ones you take your lunch in..

Lunch bags are a great idea!! Thanks!

I found this too http://www.geocities.com/newspaperpots/

of course if I went to that much trouble, I'd probably call it a gift and give it to someone! could be a fun gift to fold this up with a special plant in it for mothers day... or somethin
