The Pouch
Pretty, portable, and practical, they're a boon to the organizer, perfect for assembling, sorting, managing, and making sense of the myriad things we've collected. No matter their shape or size, they are the ultimate vessel to corral life's bits, baubles, and things. Below are our 10 favorite ways to use pouches, that will make your life a little bit easier, and a lot more organized and who couldn't use that! We encourage you to take your cue from these kits and create your own.
Whether you're a jet-setter or a day-tripper having these essentials corralled can ease the stress and mishaps of travel. First off we like to have all our travel documents in one place from identification to event tickets and everything in between, an eye mask for when be wanna nap and those around us don't, instant coffee packets, eye drops, lip balm, hand cream, a pen for filling out forms and such, Alka Seltzer because it fixes just about everything, stain remover wipes, playing cards, hand sanitizer, and no water mini toothbrushes.
Never forget another thank you note. Tuck away pretty writing paper and fun note cards, envelopes, labels, stickers, stamps and a pen. Include gifts tags, just in case, and have one on hand at the office.
Amass all your hair care needs in a large boxy bag and glide through your morning routine. Nothing is worse than getting your updo or braid just right and clutching it while you roam room to room trying to find your favorite hair tie or barrette. Pull out your favorites and toss them in a smaller pouch for your gym or travel bag. Favorites for our hair kit are a brush, hair clips, hair spray, hair ties, bobby pins, smoothing serum, and styling paste.
Stock a nail-care kit and stash it in your family room for use during a Netflix binge. Add in toe separators, nail clippers, nail files, nail polish remover, cotton pads, cuticle oil, hand cream and your favorite polishes.
Assemble a take-along sewing kit for simple mending and the occasional craft project. Include a pin cushion, small sewing scissors, spare buttons, needles, thread, safety pins, a seam ripper, and measuring tape. Or contain specific sewing or crafting items, for instance, we corral all our sewing machine feet, needles and accessories in a padded pouch.
Run to the rescue with a pouch full of medical supplies. Have on hand a thermometer, a first-aid handbook, adhesive bandages, gauze and tape, tummy remedies, pain relievers, antiseptic ointment, itch cream, cold medicine and alcohol wipes, to name a few.
Moms know how to juggle and multitask, but having mommy essentials in one portable place makes the day just a bit easier. Some essentials to include, snacks, kleenex, hand sanitizer, pacifier, wet wipes (all you really need in life is wet wipes!), baby powder (which is great to clean sandy little feet), sippy cup, and depending on age, small games, toys, or books.
Stay tuned in by marshalling all your electronics in one place, like earphones, spare batteries, chargers, power adapters, hard drives, power cords, and other electronics. Keep one with your luggage to make packing a cinch or in your desk drawer.
When life goes wrong ease the pain with a little kit like this stashed in your car's glove box or center console to remedy almost any of life's mishaps. Our supplies of choice are wet wipes, stain remover wipes, band-aids, a mini sewing kit, hand lotion, pain relievers, tummy remedies, no water needed disposable toothbrushes, and mints. One can never have enough mints stashed all over the place!
This is our favorite. A little mini pouch tossed in a larger bag filled with all those pesky little items that you constantly rummage for and can never find at the bottom of a large bag. Best part, switching purses is a breeze, simply take it out and put it in your new bag of choice and never forget any of your essentials. Kleenex, gum, lip balm, eye drops, hand lotion, hand sanitizer, a hair tie, and lipstick can be found in our purse kit.
