my mom lives at the grocery store...

my mom is that mom that will only go and buy certain items either when she has a coupon, or it is on sale.  she has been uber green, and brings her reusable grocery totes for each trip she takes.  so i thought, "she needs a cute bag that can't get mixed up with everyone else's boring store bought bags".  her favorite color is blue, so i came up with this for her for mother's day...nothing fancy, really, but i dig it.  just a tote and a coupon wallet

the duo:

...aaaaand the little coupon wallet.  it worked up really easy...i might be able to write up a little tute later on if anyone is interested.



thanks for looking!!!  sorry about the poor quality pics...i'm still working on getting a light tent/box thingie made  the lighting is REALLY yellow in my house.

Oh, no nonono.  This is not "just a tote and a coupon wallet;"  this is fabulous, thoughtful, and something your mother will proudly use.
