I find that taped-up waxed paper or glassine is even messier to get dust-like seeds out of than a Ziploc!

But many prefer glassine.

I live in a humid area, so I dry seeds for many weeks before sealing them in Ziplocs, then I put those into plastic jugs with a packet of silica gel to keep them dry right through their Ziplocs. Hopefully not TOO dry!

(I save 2 pound plastic jars that peanuts or peanut butter came in.)
