Next up...

So, I've been thinking and I have a few ideas
for new products for the orange room.
I'm thinking...reusable snack/sandwich bags and lunch bags!
I would also like to make some make up/toiletry bags.

I am thinking the make up bags will come first, as I am having a hard time finding out if there is truly a food safe waterproof fabric out there...I have an email in to the info people at the FDA.

I'm hoping I will be able to show you a sample make up bag Thursday!

PS...I added a few pairs of earrings to my shop!
Go check 'em out! : )

Well you have been busy.
Those earrings are great and the bags look really good.
I like your idea of still selling stuff even if it's not perfect. I love the my mistake your gain title. I might borrow that idea from you if you don't mind too much.
Keep up the great work.
Much love

Hi Babe, after reading your last blog post I thought I would do some research for you about the types of cloth you can use.
Anyway it turns out that you can use just good old fashioned 100% cotton and wrap things the way the Japanese can OR you can use what you in the states call oilcloth. Here's a couple of links for you babe , hope it helps.

Also check out Martha Stewart for some great ideas.
