Where did they get the bandeges to mummifie people?

The bandages the Egyptians used to wrap the deceased were linen strips. They first wrapped the head and the neck, then the fingers and toes, which were individually wrapped. They wrapped the arms and legs next. Resin was used to glue the bandages together. After a Book of the Dead and amulets were put in the wrappings, the mummy was covered with a large cloth that was attached with linen strips. They then placed it in a sarcophagus.
