Yellow Piano Peacock Bag on etsy |
Ah, it's that time of year again.. As much as I adore summer with its hot lazy days by August I long for the structure that the school year brings. Each year we head to Staples or target for some colorful new notebooks and bags of pens and whatever other tools my kids insist they need for their fantasy organization.

Refresh your style with a new pencil bag
One item that is an easy refresher is the
pencil case. My daughter is sixteen and a rising senior and she adores showing off her artsy bag. For the last few years, her friends have all asked for these
pencil cases as birthday gifts which they use either as
pencil cases or sometimes as
cosmetic bags. ( and yes mom, you may want this for yourself... I have two in my purse)

Padded lining
They are ideally suited as a
pencil case because the long shape easily fits your pencils and the padded lining keeps the sharpest ones from poking through. Of course, the size and share is great for eye liner and the padding protects and mirrored compacts you keep in there too.

Waterproof lining protects your purse
In addition, the waterproof vinyl lining will protect you from your own carelessness. If you don't secure a pen top and the ink bleeds you do not have to worry about the pen leaking through this bag to your purse.

Different Design on each side
For the three
zippered pouches featured here, I chose a different print for each side of the bag. The front pictures one of my
peacock paintings while the back is a coordinating print. If you like these you may also want to pick up a coin purse, or a different shaped cosmetic bag in a similar or contrasting peacock fabric.

Teachers love these
If you already finished your back to school shopping. ( I live in New York where school is a few weeks away but I understand some southern schools are already in session, is that true???) Then you may want to stock up on these for your favorite teachers for year end gifts. Let her decide if she wants it to organize the pens in her purse or her favorite cosmetics.
Could I use this as a clutch?

Once I forgot to pack a clutch for an out of town wedding so I just pulled out the cosmetic bag and used that instead. I got so many compliments! Little girls love them that way too, Whenever I have an art fair they beg their mothers for the soft silky bags and proudly parade around with them.
