This little piggy goes to the Market...

I'm currently preparing to sell at my first vendor fair. I will have a table set up with a bunch of Bonna Bags on Sunday October 14th from 11am-7pm at The Market. So, if you'll be in NY you should definitely come check it out. The Market gives young designers a place to show and sell their stuff. It's located at 268 Mulberry street (between Prince and Houston). One way to get there is to take the F train to the 2nd Avenue stop. I hope to see you on Sunday! http://www.themarketnyc.com/flashmain.html

Models in the Park

Yesterday I finally got my act together and had a photo shoot for the jumbo and tiny totes! That means I now have model shots for etsy and will be adding the new sizes to etsy.com within the next couple of days. We also filmed a commercial yesterday that my friend Rebecca is going to edit. You'll be able to check out that commerical on this website by the end of December. Thank you to everyone who modeled for me! You are all gorgeous and were a pleasure to work with. Here are some of the photos:

On Set

New Photo Shoot Coming Soon

I want to thank all of you who are patiently waiting to purchase the new sizes and apologize for the fact that the jumbo and tiny totes are not on sale at etsy.com yet. I'm in the process of moving to Park Slope, Brooklyn and haven't had a chance to do a photo shoot yet. As soon as I take pictures of people modeling the new bags I will list them online for sale. I do have some still images of the jumbo and tiny totes to hold you over. There should be some fabulous new model shots very soon!

Bonna Bags now come in 3 sizes!!!

So, the jumbo and tiny tote styles are now done and should be available to sell by the beginning of September. Here are some photos to get you excited:


3 Styles= Jumbo tote, Flat tote, and Tiny tote
These are the handles for the jumbo totes. I dyed them and then the wonderful people at Enviro-Tote did the stitching to match.
Some jumbo totes hanging on the line.

For some reason I woke up at 5:30am the other day (don't ask me why) and caught this beautiful sunset on the lake.


Well, the production end of things is now complete and I am officially a sales person. I am so glad that I found Enviro-Tote because thanks to them this whole process went smoother than I could have imagined. No matter what crazy things I asked them to do for me they were more than willing to give it a try. Everyone at the factory was so friendly and enthusiastic about my project that it was a joy to drop off and pick up the bags. If you ever need to buy promotional tote bags I would highly recommend using Enviro-Tote.
