Terrific Totes

.
Today I have some terrific totes for you. One for the DIY crowd and one for the BUY crowd.

I stumbled upon these DIY totes from TidyMom the other day and fell for them instantly. Such a statement party favor that is personal and actually usable. Love.

Then, I was perusing Forever 21 the other day (I can't help it, I love costume jewelry and accessories) and saw these adorable new totes they have. I'm a big fan of their $1.50 totes for shopping bags and it doesn't hurt that they also make great favors.

You can see how I used F21 shopping totes as favors and "shopping bags" at our Clothing Swap party earlier this year. Using removable 3M wall hooks to hang them gives you a lot of bang for your buck fifty.

These totes above could serve as the perfect inspiration piece for a folksy lovebird shower, a chic Paris theme soiree or a bold and graphic LOVE bridal or baby shower. Can't you just see them now? I totes can!

Great tip about tying in the pre-printed designs on totes to one's party theme! Just means you need to shop with a "party eye"!

Forever 21 is terrible for garment workers... FYI
