Do you carry wet wipes in your purse?

18 years ago

I always have a package in my purse because I am with Grant alot.

I know other people use them for lots of other reasons too.

Instead of just the regular boring package I made a case for them...much cuter don't you think?

They are all done on the embroidery machine so they are simple to make and the stitch time is 15 minutes.

Now I have lots of covers so I'll just give them away cause I sure don't need a wardrobe for my wet wipes! LOL

Those are really cute Jenni. I try to buy them at Bath & Body when they have them which isn't often.

I love them Jenni! I don't carry them in my purse, but should. Is that the pattern that you told me was all done in the embroidery hoop? I would love to have the pattern to see if I can make them. They are easy, huh? LOL

Have you ever lost your wallet/purse and had it returned?

My lost & found experiences: Like a lot of people I often think how great it would be to find a bunch of money. But I always hope that If I do, PLEASE let there be no ID with it, because thanks to that guilt trip my Mom (very religious) laid on my when I was a kid, I'd have to do all I could to locate the rightful owner. I wouldn't ask for a reward either. I wouldn't turn it in anywhere because I believe that sadly in this day and age the average person would just pocket it. Found $65 on the floor of a nightclub in Avalon NJ, just the money, no ID. Sweet! Found $30 in Sears parking lot at Neshaminy Mall, NE Phila. - no car parked nearby. Again, cash only. Found a passport walking from the train to work. Tracked down the owner, called, said I'd bring it over. Knocked / rang the bell, no answer, car in the driveway. I think they didn't want to risk me asking for a reward (I wouldn't). I left it in the mailbox. When my 24 year old daughter was 3 she found a childs wallet in the playground with $3 and address / phone number inside. She wanted to keep it but I said we have to return it. The mother didn't eveen say thank you. I gave Kris $1 as a reward. When I delivered pizza part time I found $43 with no ID in the shop but it was where the drivers congregated and there was only one other driver working with me. I returned the money. Older peope are no more or less honest than the younger ones. Again as a pizza deliverer, I took an order to a florist shop. When they paid me I put the money in my jacket pocket, something I never did, usually. Walking back to the car I reached in to retrieve the money & felt only change. I turn back toward the door - I'm about 30 feet away - and the old lady who ran the register by the door is scuttling toward the bill, a ten, reaching for it when her eyes met mine. I quickly said 'Looks like I dropped my change.' She replied 'Yeah, I guess so.' or something like that. She got up and walked back inside.

How do you organize your purse?

I carry a small purse. Absolutely hate carrying a purse but snug jean pockets don't hold much more than a knife or a cell. Inside pocket has a pill container,nail clippers,gum and a little tooth pick/brush thingy. Main compartment has a small wide toothed comb,wipes,a pen,my cell phone and my wallet. Still has room for my pocket camera if I want. Keys are there when the day starts. Once I use them they go in my pocket. I don't carry a real wallet. It is one of those little leather flat ones with a larger zippered main compartment,an outer zipped coin pocket and a couple of open compartments on the other side for ID,cards etc. All receipts etc are removed nightly along with change. I use cash for almost everything. I don't use debit cards or credit cards except for a couple of store credit cards one of which is also a use anywhere Visa. Haven't wrote a check in over a decade other than for house hold utility bills and mortgage and now I pay online so no need for a checkbook.

I have it as my wallet so it usually stays in the purse. When exercising, on the machine. My sister and I also refer to our carrying hands as "the claw" - when we're clutching something it will stay forever in the claw and we'll barely notice! ("Do you want me to put that bottle of wine in my bag?" "No it's fine, it's in the claw.")

Do you KonMari your purse?

Mtn, I understand what you're saying. And I agree that this is by and large all about being mindful of the items we use day in and day out. Last year I "invested" in four very nice (to me) purses that cost more than any other purses I've ever bought. I just figured at this stage of my life, it was high time for my handbags to be a testament to my career and I owed it to myself to stop carrying around junky stuff. To that end, I HAVE found myself being much more mindful of how I handle and store my purses (well, the spilled Mentos in the bottom of a Kate Spade notwithstanding), and there is some small "something" that is triggered in my mind whenever I reach for one of them on the closet shelf that is quite satisfying and causes me to have a momentary (tiny) rush of gratitude. Perhaps that's similar to what Kon Mari suggests, although I'm still not going to unpack a purse nightly and tuck it in for beddie-bye. (Not yet anyway. If I ever get a really, really, REALLY nice purse, then I may change my tune.)

Oh Jenni, I don't mean for you to send me the pattern. Just give me the specifics and I'll buy a pattern. *S*

I do carry wet wipes in my purse, especially when we are travelling. Those covers are neat! I bought 14 of the fabric Kleenex covers (purse size) and used them as Christmas gifts for a Senior Citizen's Sunday School Class. They were delighted! I'll bet the wet wipes covers would be a hit, also. You are so creative, Jenni! Bettye/AZ

Yes, I carry them too, usually. If I go to the casino boats (rarely) I grab a handful. I'm out now. Guess I better go to the boats.

Yes! Even DH has learned to at least keep them in the car. I buy my purses huge, so they always fit my wipes in them. They're the greatest invention!

I have most of her designs for cases.

I always have some under the seat of my car. Even though my "baby" will be 16 next month, they still come in handy!

Jenni...what keeps the fabric of the holder down around the oval of the opening. It looks like it would just slide up and off.

Can't that oval be done in a tight zig zag?

Those are so cute, Jenni! I keep Wet Ones in the glove box, they come in so handy! I try to keep a single package one in my purse, but they're getting harder to find. I'll have to look for those smaller packages, what section of the store carries them- baby?

(I carry small purses, so space is premium.)

Patti, it is satin stiched around the opening, just a bit smaller than the opening. It does not even slip off a little.
She designs things very well so there is never any problems.
The wipes fit inside the case then a flap folds in to keep them in.

Jenni, I would love one for DD who is the mother of our 15 month old grandson and planning #2 shortly. Are you selling them? I don't have a machine that would embroider or I would try to make one myself.

Always have them with me, either in the car or purse. With a messy DH and 4 DGS they certainly save the day a lot.

I have carried Wet Wipes in my purse for so many years I can't remember when I first starting carrying them! I also keep some in one of my cubicle drawers at work, so I can easily refill my purse supply when needed.

Jenni! These are sooo cute! I missed this thread...you posted on the day we had Ricky's birthday party...then ended up at the ER with our youngest son. He had a horrible case of hives and eventually was having chest pains and trouble breathing! Anyway....I see this was the date of this post. I just have to say these are perfect and thanl you for taking my order! I am giving them to DILs for mother's day! They love this kind of stuff too....so different! Cute, cute, cute!!
