Now, fold each side in about 1/2 inch. Flip the envelope over, and along the same crease, fold again.
Finally, fold the bottom up about 1/2 inch. Flip the envelope over and along the same crease, fold again.

all the folds to form the sides and bottom.

Glue or tape the bottom corners in to stregnth the bottom of the bag.
