I love finding products that combine style, function and that are environmentally-friendly. The Reisenthel Reusable Shopping Bag has this down to a science. This trendy bag neatly folds into its own round, zippered pouch. It is made of durable rip-stop fabric and has long handles for carrying over your shoulder. The colors and designs are breathtaking, and I appreciate that the bag does not have a logo on it. The bag is light and small enough to keep in a purse or diaper bag, and the larger ones can hold the contents of 2-3 plastic grocery bags. Most styles are under $10.
City view (by Risa): The Reisenthal bag is perfect to keep in the diaper bag or stroller for both planned and unexpected shopping trips. I often make unplanned purchases when walking in New York and I like having this fabric bag on hand instead of taking a plastic bag or simply throwing the items at the bottom of the stroller. The Reisenthel bag and case even clip to the side of our stroller so I don’t have to dig for it when I need it.
Suburban angle (by Tina): I looked in my pantry a few minutes ago and counted nine reusable shopping bags with different store logos on them. I used to try to keep them in my car so that they were handy when I was shopping at specific stores, but almost always found myself missing the bag from the particular store to which I had pulled up and felt guilty using a bag that had the logo of a specific store on it while shopping at a competitor's store. Reisenthel takes care of this problem in one stylish, logo-free, compact reusable bag.
"Wow" was my pure reaction when I felt Organically Grown's layette line. It not only felt soft and plush, but also had that high-quality cloth feel of well-made European lines. I also like the fact that this "green" line did not go overboard by making their clothes look organic (you know, that soft brown with a grainy look). The layette line is well-designed in every respect. This company's goal was to make a difference to the environment by producing high-quality organic products. They succeeded easily in that endeavor, and in the process produced a line that will put a smile on a mom's face when she slips the soft, organic cotton over sensitive baby skin that deserves no less.
