A small cross should bag, perfect to brighten up any day. They are super summery and come with a natural strap (approximately 120cm long) which means you can fling this over your shoulder with style.
The details - Because sometimes it’s good to know these things
Colours: Blue background with orange, green and pink tropical vegetation. Pink Flamingo. Natural strap.
Thickness: less than 1 cm. To be technical - they do not have a gusset!! A gusset is an extra piece of material at the bottom, (or sides or both) which makes bags bigger.
Size: Approximately 18 x 16 cm.

Warnings
This is an over the should bag designed to store your out and about bits and bobs, purse and phone etc in summery style. So seriously…..
Don’t put bricks in them. For a start they just won’t fit!
Don’t chew the bag - why would you? YUK!
Dont give the bag to little tiny ones. The bag is not designed to be chewed, to store lunch or half eaten snacks in, to be dunked in the toilet or anything else a little rascal may decide is a good idea!
Long Cord Alert. As with any long cord you need to be careful and use the bag strap as a bag strap. If you wrap it round your neck you could choke. If you wrap it tightly round your fingers, they could turn blue - that’s not a good thing!
Upcycling your tropical bag
So what could you do with your bag? Up cycling requires a little bit of imagination sometimes - here are a few of our ideas…..
Change its use! It doesn’t always have to be a bag. It can be hung up and used as storage for tickets or keepsakes. It can become a snug house for a teddy or toy. Hang it in the car to keep your drinks, sweets or pencils close by.
Don’t forget, if you get fed up of your bag (as we all change our minds from time to time!) donate it to a family member, friend or to your local charity shop. Don’t forget to ask an adult if it’s ok!
