I’ve been eyeing these travel bags for a while and wanting to make some of my own! Aren’t they perfect for travel? You tuck your clean underthings in one, and then as the trip progresses, transfer them to the other one. This makes it so easy to keep everything separated in your luggage. This weekend, I took a few minutes to make a set of my own!

First I grabbed these bags (more than you need, so you can make extras to give as gifts!) and a fabric marker (from Target in the craft department, but this set is similar to the one I bought).

You can print out the text in a favorite font to use as inspiration. (Left: Harlems Font. Right: Wanderlust.) I used these for reference but put my own twist on the letters!

Place a small piece of cardboard inside the bag so the ink doesn’t bleed through to the other side. Then write “to wear” on one and “to wash” on the other.

Tip: Use the bullet point end of the fabric marker to do faux calligraphy (as pictured). Write the words, then thicken each down stroke to give it that calligraphy or brush pen look.

Check the fabric marker packaging for washing instructions.These would make nice gifts for a girlfriend who loves to travel!

Other phrases to write on your bags: “bits and baubles,” “hair thingies,” “socks,” “chargers & earbuds,” and “this and that.”

Let me know if you make any!

I love sharing great deals with you (which I only do when they are really exceptional!), and this is certainly one I’m excited about! I wouldn’t want you to miss out on this lovely set of cleaning supplies for your home!

While supplies last, you can score a Caldrea Summer Entertaining Kit that includes Caldrea Dish Soap (your choice of fragrance), Caldrea Countertop Spray (your choice of fragrance), and a Grove Be Good Dish Brush from Grove Collaborative (formerly ePantry). This set is valued at over $30!

Before your friends arrive this summer, spray your countertops down with the Caldrea Countertop Spray, then set the Caldrea Dish Soap and Grove Dish Brush next to your sink to make clean-up a snap!

I ordered the Ginger Pomelo fragrance, which smells AMAZING! It’s light and sweet without being cloying. It’s fresh and clean and leaves just the right amount of fragrance in the kitchen after spraying the counters and doing the dishes. The brush is pretty enough to leave out beside the sink and replace that old sponge or dish rag!

If you’re new to Grove Collaborative, you’ll get this set FREE + free shipping when you order here and spend $20.

If you’re already hooked on Grove, you’ll get a free Grove Collaborative Be Good dish brush when you use this link. It’s so nice!

Two of my other favorite products from Grove Collaborative are the Grove kitchen towels and the Grove natural soy candles! I spend a lot of time in my kitchen, so I love having stylish, high-quality products around to make the room an inviting, happy place– for me and my family! Not to mention, I love making my home smell & look nice when friends come over!

That’s the best part of shopping with Grove: I never have to worry about running out of my favorite products, because Grove helps me stay stocked up on high-quality supplies. I simply choose my favorite products, schedule my shipment, and Grove delivers everything right to my door (carbon offset). It’s effortless, and unbelievably affordable.
