Seed Packet Template Free Printable and DIY For Your Gardening Seeds

It’s been a while since I have shared free printables. I made 2 Seed Packet Template designs. And I thought today would be perfect to share a couple of the seed-saver envelopes, and the DIY since we are heading into the gardening season. There are two options for the back of the design on one of these envelopes.

Also, you can use this as a Mother’s Day gift idea by adding flower seeds to the packet. Or use it for your extra seeds, after planting for a free seed-saver envelope.

This would be a fun way for the kids to celebrate Mom and have the activity of planting flowers with her in the garden. But, these seed envelopes are good for your extra seeds or any time you need a garden seed packet.

This seed saver DIY is easy to make. Another gardening gift you can make is this Herb Garden Kit DIY which also comes with free Mother’s Day printable, and a garden printable.

Steps for making a seed saving envelope

Grab any of the free seed packet templates via the links above (for the jpg. version see below)
Print the free template for the seed saver envelope using card stock(8.5 x 11) or quality printer paper (8.5 x 11)
Cut around the black lines with scissors
Fold the pink lines
Trim only if needed
Fold the bottom flap up and glue the top of the bottom folded flap
For the next step NOTE: Which design do you want to be your top, it will be folded down, and glued last! Back Side Options for one envelope are (to – from) Or (garden notes) only one side will be shown
Glue stick one side down to the bottom, and press the one side only to the backside of the front envelope (this piece will not be shown on the back of the envelope)
Fold the next back of the envelope top-down, and glue around the 4 sides *LEAVE TOP FLAP OPEN
For clarity, there is a video that has the same gluing method but, envelopes are cut by hand with a no-print option
Fold the top flap down after adding seeds, seal only if you want with resealable tape for closing the envelope, or use resealable tape bags

Print the Seed Envelope Template and follow the steps above to make a seed envelope!

The only steps that may be tricky the first time are steps 6-9. Here are a few larger images to clarify the steps.

Step 6 Fold the bottom flap up and glue the top of the folded bottom flap
Step 7 Pick backside design (if needed)
Step 8 Glue stick one side down to the bottom, and press the one side only to the backside of the front envelope (this piece will not be shown on the back of the envelope)

Step 8

Fold the backs – top side down, and glue around the 4 sides *LEAVE TOP FLAP OPEN

Fold the top flap down after adding seeds, seal only if you want to.

Use regular glue sticks or re-positional glue sticks. I hope to make a few more designs when I have the chance. But, I thought this might be a fun and easy kids’ craft that kids can make mom, grandma, or auntie.

Here’s another way to make seed packet envelopes and the video tutorial shows you how to glue your cut-out envelope. Sometimes it’s easier to see it being done vs. reading how. I hope you enjoy making a few for yourself or as a gift.
