Seems there ought to be something useful to do with some healthy fraction of a roll of Mylar. It's approx 36" wide, punched along the edges for a pinfed printer, mostly transparent with a whitish cast, one side glossy the other matte.
I draft sewing patterns onto plastic that sounds similar (though wider and not perforated). If I'm altering commercial patterns, it's easy to trace the parts I want to keep, and if I'm cutting patterned fabric, it's good to check the placement of the pattern through the plastic before cutting. A Sharpie works fine for marking it.
You could also fold pieces in 2 to make photo/art protectors. We use commercially made ones at work but you could crease a nice edge with a bone folder and have yourself some easy photo sleeves.
