New Bag...an Etsy Shop Review

With the summer quickly approaching....a new bag is always necessary. When I had Christopher (4 years ago) my hubby wanted me to be a 'trendy' new mom and so he had bought me a black Coach diaper bag. I love it. I used it for a long time with Christopher and then took it out again last year when I had Anthony. It was expensive so I knew I need to use it to the fullest!! Well, I came across a great Etsy shop called Doodlescoot Designs. She specializes in custom diaper bags, handbags and accessories.

I contacted Teri and she was great during the whole design process. I chose the style of bag I wanted and then had to decide on the fabric and whether or not I wanted it monogrammed. Any questions I had, she was very helpful and even sent me pics of some of the fabric and thread options. Since the bag is custom, it took a little longer to make. Almost 3 weeks. It seems like longer when you are checking your mailbox everyday with the anticipation of your order!! One of the best things was the price....ONLY $49. I think that is a great price for a custom bag. I have seen many beautiful bags on Etsy, but all were much more expensive. I have gotten so many compliments on this bag...I just love it.

The bag is so roomy. It has a ton of inside pockets, great for organizing. I have everything but the kitchen sink in there....and it still closes. Check out her shop...you won't be disappointed!

I did end up doing the monogramming, even though I don't have a middle name! I did the first letter of my name and my boys.
