This is my "purse," as it was found a few minutes ago and it's contents. It's used much less frequently than the "giant chicken bag," which I have also chronicled (see "giant chicken bag" below)
Inside was found to be:
Dried apple cr
An almost-empty bottle of Clifford Farms Orange Blossom Lotion
An empty container of M&M's mini's that my mom gave to me in hopes of me someday storing a roll of quarters in.
Two different Lightning McQueen cars
A tube of CO Bigelow Ultra Mentha Lip Shine- Peppermint
A reminder card for a dentist Appt. in September
A receipt for Tai Pan Trading for a bunch of fake carrots
Receipt for Chevron
Sticky note Listing dinner reservation plans for Disneyworld/Another one for park plans
A reci
A coupon with the plans for this Wednesday's RS Dinner menu/plans on it (it's a coupon for flour- do you think I can still use it with writing all over it?)
A reciept for Phazes Salon for my hairdo in January (I left a $4.o0 tip- is that bad?)
Creepy looking duck and rooster head finger puppets (no clue where I got these)
And of course, a mouse nose.
Red fleece pants, 4T
Blue undies
3 Toy horses
An orange pipe cleaner or "bendy sick"
Little shooting disks from lost McDonalds toy
A magnetic Snow White tin/game thingy
A purple sippy full of water
An empty fruit snack wrapper (peanuts)
A box of raisins
Baggie of lightly salted peanuts
TaxWorks pen
My keys
My "magic" wallet DH got me from Downeast for $1 and scratched off the initials that weren't mine.
My cell phone- (so that's where my phone is! sorry if you've been trying to call)
A toy incredibles cell phone that sometimes spouts off in the middle of the freaking night
A one-piece outfit, 24 mos.
A really cute wet cloth diaper bag (see the Etsy shop of my friend Chris)
A diaper (fuzzi bunz, circa 2004, size L)
Some wipes
Incidentally, this giant chicken bag was based on a former, much-too-loved Curious George diaper bag made by the very friend who tagged me for this exercise, Tash. I just couldn't fit all this stuff I "need" to carry around once I had E, so I made me a Chicken one. Full circle.
I think we need to trade lessons....I'll give you a few organization/decluttering tips and you can give me a few sewing tips! ;)
ReplyDeleteI was hoping you could help me fix my "hooter hider"....the snap came off of the fabric and I have no idea how to mend it!
That's all? LOL. Those bags are adorable!
ReplyDeleteI feel like I'm eavesdropping, but you can always use my snap press to fix Jessie's hooter hider, lol!
At least you only have 2 bags full of "stuff". I have way too many bags with who knows what. I think the worst is my church bag.
ReplyDeleteDuck and rooster finger puppets??????? There's a twisted side to you Sister R, twisted I tell ya!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOkay, Mury, I don't only have 2 bags of stuff, don't worry. :) These are just the most frequently used. I have 2 other diaper bags full and probably 4 more purses with "stuff" in them!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the offer Jes, but my bags are just how I want them. I could spend a lot more time organizing (I know how) but it's not my hugest priority- that's how I have time to sew and do things I LIKE :)
LOVE the giant chicken bag! Sooo cute. too bad the curious george one is too small. . .I think I still have some of that fabric. . . .
