Tuesday Tip

Travel light!  Last week I was meeting up with a friend who was running a bit late.  I didn't mind though because it gave me time to take a quick browse through Crate & Barrel.  Lots of bright colors everywhere I looked.  Generally, not my thing.  But, these fun items caught my attention!

Who could resist a clear little bag with brightly colored trim to store all your travel size lotions and potions the next time you go somewhere?  Maybe when you show the grumpy person at the airport who wants to look at your stuff, they will smile.  Maybe.  The best part?  It has this fun little airplane charm dangling from the zipper.  So I bought four.  I've got to tell you,  grabbing that tiny jet makes zipping up the bag super easy!  Bye-bye zip-lock.  Now I have something better for the earth and way better for my stylish sensibilities!  I am sure the men in my household will moan about the colors....what's that honey?....I can't hear you....


Happy Spring Break!!!

  5. These are so fun! I'm glad you grabbed a bunch - this is just the type of thing you can use for so many things. Jewelry in one, lotions in another, band-aids and neosporin in a third and maybe snacks in the fourth. Okay, clearly, I have little kids....

  14. So cute - I will have to get one. Just think of all those quart-size zip lock bags in the landfills now. Sad.
    By the way, into 'green' things? I just posted something about a (free) way to make your blog carbon neutral and get a tree planted on your behalf. Kind of neat!
