The About Town Fleece- A must have item!

My new favorite Thirty-One item is the About Town Fleece. It's one of those items in the catalog that is easy to miss but is something that should be in every car.

This fleece blanket, which can also be personalized, has a nylon back. This is so perfect for sitting on the damp grass at the soccer field or in the park for a picnic. Or, if it starts to drizzle, the soft fleece is against your skin and the nylon backside is keeping you dry.

And now the best part... when you are done, you fold it up, close it with the velcro closure and carry it away with the handles. It turns into it's own carrying bag! No more lugging around a big awkward blanket to the fireworks or an outside concert.

The blanket is available in navy blue, royal blue, red and black. When opened, it measures 57" x 50". Order yours today at MyThirtyOne.com/AmyL. Did I mention I love this blanket????

Thank you Tiffany!

Thank you Tiffany for a fun party last Thursday night. I really enjoyed spending time with your family and friends. You had a GREAT turn out and I'm glad everyone liked the products. It's great that you were able to get your long list of "wants" for a fraction of what it would normally cost you.

Have fun in Baltimore. Go Sox!!

The Magazine Basket

The very popular Magazine Basket is cute all by itself. However, there are many uses for it other than just magazines.

• Place a roll of toilet paper on the wooden handle to use in your bathroom. Fill the rest with either extra rolls of toilet paper or magazines.
  
• Place a roll of paper towels on the handle and fill with paper plates and plastic utensils for a great addition to your picnic table.
• Again, with the paper towels on the handle, fill with kids craft supplies. That way, the clean up is easy to get to.
  

Have any other ideas on how to use the magazine basket, please leave a comment. Thanks!

Great Gifts of Grads!

'Tis the season for graduations. Here are a few ideas for the high school grad heading off for college.

• My favorite gift is The ID/Coin Purse which is perfect for the college student for carrying around their school ID and keys. (I used something like this in college but it wasn't nearly as cute.) Put a gift certificate in it and you have the perfect gift!
  
• Personalized Zipper Pouch, Matching Personalized Note Cards, stamps and a pen (for when they want to send a nice letter the old fashioned way).
  
• Diaper Bag to be used as a lap top case.
  
• Personalized towels to be used in the bath instead of the beach.
  
• The Bath Wrap or Spa Robe for showering in the dorm.
• Storage Tote filled with laundry supplies.
  

Thank you Sue!
