I sneaked a little something new onto the website last week – Miss Mouse & friends tote bags!
They’re made from 80% recycled cotton with 20% recycled polyester. They measure 37 x 43cm (so they’ll easily fit an A4 pad sideways), and they have a small gusset at the bottom so they’re not completely flat. The handles are 65cm long, so the bag will tuck neatly under your arm.
There are four designs, each on a different colour of bag, and they’re £15 each.
(If you’re a Patron at www.missmou.se or a subscriber to the mailing list, you should have a discount code.)
The tote bags are produced by a company called Stanley/Stella, who are based as far as possible on sound ethical principles. (I have a grumble about the fact that they don’t offer any plus sizes in their t-shirts, but that’s another story.)
They’re printed by Inkthreadable, who are a print-on-demand drop-shipping company. This means that you buy a tote bag, I confirm the order with Inkthreadable, and then they print it and send it straight out to you. It takes a few days – there’s no next-day delivery because it takes a while to do the printing. But if you order a bag, it should be with you inside a week.
I think this one’s my favourite – it makes me laugh to think about carrying a shopping bag with the Woodland Gang saving up their chocolate coins. Well, except for Pip – as usual!
