Favorite place to order glassine envelopes?

Glassine envelopes can be obtained with a self-sealing band to stick
down the flap, or without it. I strongly recommend those without the
self-sealing band, because seeds will stick to it when the packet is
filled. You can seal the envelope using a glue stick (which also takes
practice).
The plastic zip-close bags are awful for seeds, not just because of the
danger of mold, but also because most seeds will cling to the inside of
the bag and be hard to remove, evoking adult language on the part of the
recipient.

Hi, Leo,
I buy from Postal Products Unlimited for the glassines I use for the Seed
Depot.

Where is your favorite place to order glassine envelopes in the US? I've
never seen them in shops locally.
A US craftwork chain called Michael's sells several sizes of very small
plastic zip close baggies, made to store tiny beads. I wouldn't use these
unless the seeds were very dry and the relative humidity low.
