A billion uses

I'm a big fan of products that can be used for several different purposes. If you haven't heard of the ICKY bag, you certainly need to check them out at Petunias! Made with delightful fabrics, they're stylish, practical and can be used for anything imaginable. My favorite feature is that it's completely "wet proof!" That means no more wet swimsuits in plastic grocery bags after a day at the pool & the perfect place to carry those sunscreen bottles, that always seem to leak:)
There's a sale going on too! Now through October 31, 2008, take 10% off the purchase of 2 or more ICKY Bags (any combination of sizes, offer does not apply to The ICKY Bag DUO™, refund will be issued after purchase and payment are complete).

  1. I LOVE how versatile it is! You can use it for, like you mentioned, wet swimsuits... but you could also use it as a cute "pet bag" to carry treats, toys, etc. while on a trip! I LOVE IT!

    This one's my favorite!

  2. How cute are these? With a sticky, messy toddler I could certainly use one of these in my purse to corral her messes! :) I especially love the orange polka dot bag with the adorable owl applique.

  3. I LOVE LOVE the xl ICKY Bag... it makes a great "throw and go". I'd use it as a diaper/travel bag for my little girl. Sometimes it's easier without all the compartments and zippers inside! I'm a sucker for anything with birds on it, so my fave is the blue and brown bird print!

  8. I LOVE how much these catch attention!! They are not your everyday bag that everyone and anyone has. The Fabric choices are very unique and that makes them one of a kind and special!!

    AND of course that it is waterproof makes it even more one of a kind. It makes it hard to come across a great looking bag like this!

    Great job Petunia!!

    I love the fabric choice #182

  42. I love the funky patterns. I tend to go "plain-o" when it comes to fabrics but I am inspired by the fun and creative fabrics. I don't sew very well, so this is my inspiration!

    P.S. Waterproof is a GREAT idea! Here is one of my favorites. It took me 10 minutes just to decide on one!

  67. My favorite thing about the icky bag? I wouldn't have to be embarrassed about bringing home all my nasty gym clothes and shoes in grocery bags anymore! (Dog poo should not get the same treatment as my Nike duds!)

    My favorite Icky Bag is the one with the pink birds on a wire / floral pattern: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16329091

    ReplyDelete
  68. This is the perfect idea! I tried doing cloth diapers with my babies and quit because of being away from home and nothing to put the "yucky" in. These would be perfect! My sister is wanting to do the cloth diaper thing now (when her baby comes next month) and this would be a perfect way to help her continue and not quit like I did! Oh and the pink one with the vintage birdie - sooo cute!

    ReplyDelete

  72. We love to go swimming at our local rec center, this would be a much better option than wrapping our suits up in a towel and stuffing them into my backpack.

    We like the print with the tadpoles in the jars.

  73. Way cuter way to keep wet or yucky clothes safely separated until home for washing. Everyone with a baby knows how messy things can get. I like this one http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=15305038
