Cellophane & Shrink bag sizing

How do I determine what size of cellophane bag I need?
Measure the width (side to side) of the basket or container and measure the diameter (front to back) and add the width plus the diameter and you will get the width of your bag.
Shrink bags can be ordered a little large as they will shrink up to 60%.
For example: Basket is 12" from side to side and 6" from front to back the correct width of bag would be 18".


How do I determine what size of shrink bag I need?

Using a flexible fabric measuring tape, measure your height dimension and add 10%. Measure the width or depth and add 10%. This 10% will give you the extra play for ease of insertion. To find out if your product will fit into a shrink bag, follow these instructions:
Measure your Gift.
Height - Front, Bottom, Back + 10%; Divide by 2 = Bag Height
Width - Front, Sides and Back + 10%; Divide by 2 = Bag Width
Example: Total Height = 40" + 10% (4") = 44"; Divide by 2 = 22" Height Bag
Example: Total Width = 47" + 10% (5") = 52"; Divide by 2 = 26" Width Bag
You need a 22" height x 26" width bag.
