We are constantly on the moves. If we can take advantage on all the moments we wait or relax outside our house to do write down ideas, to do list or complete our social correspondence, we would have more time on our hands.
The Concept
This is why I was thrilled when Carrie and Tuck contacted me to sample their notetotes.
Jane Boatman Geller was inspired to create a functional and fashionable tote to take to the beach, the pool or on vacation. The tote holds social stationery as well as the writing tools to keep in touch with friends and family.
I requested the hot pink model. I am even more excited now. Their tote closely matched the Russell + Hazel mini binder that I used to write down suppliers, keep small sheets of paper and store long-lasting tips.
For my projects, I started used the Action Book by Behance. Even if I am an electronic age girl, I enjoy the freedom of a pen and paper.
Nice Gift Ideas
The tote is nicely done. The writing accessories stay well in place. It has my seal of approval. Carrie and Tuck provides even more stationery pattern options as refill packs, available for $18 each.
Remember this notetote as this would make a wonderful birthday gift or a baby shower gift.
