Everywhere Local Tote

First to recommend

Description

Some of you may have caught onto my love for Chico Bags. They fold up so easily into their own interior pocket and are super lightweight, so I just leave one in my purse which saves me a lot of plastic bag usage. The only complaint is that the strap isn't long enough to hang over my shoulder. Well, Flight 001 solved that problem with this tote. It is essentially the same idea. A nylon tote that folds into it's own interior pocket. But this bag has 12.5" carrying straps so you can throw it over your shoulder while shopping, walking, and exploring new places. They come in 4 different colors. I'd buy a couple and give them away to friends for gifts!

This is an eco-friendly and simple approach to the much-needed keyrack. Made from a oak brushed only with natural oil, it attaches to your wall easily. Then, just stick your keys in the slat to hold them in place. Put your wallet and receipts on top, and voila! Problem solved.

Pacifica Buffet

What better to keep your seasonal plates and dinnerware and tabletop decor in than a rustic buffet? Made from sustainable teak, and each timber used is supported by the Tropical Forest Trust (TFT), a nonprofit organization who promotes harvesting from responsibly managed forests. So you can store your goods with a clean conscious. Truly beautiful, and will last you a lifetime.
