Envirosax Flora Series Pouch
I saw this fun reusable shopping bag in O Magazine, but of course it was sold out by the time I got there. Then I realized you could buy a “pouch” of each design series. I got five bright bags in all the floral prints they offer, for only $5 each. (They also offer an intriguing black and white series.)
Now I can match my bag to my T-shirt at the farmer’s market, which is crucial.
$35 at Envirosax

The Standard Shave Cream
My husband loves this shaving cream. He says it’s unctuous, and leaves his skin feeling moisturized. I like it because it makes his face smell clean, but not musky like some shaving creams. The scent is a mixture of sandalwood, yling ylang, and lavender. It smells like he just came in from doing light yard work. Guys who do yard work are hot.

Bach Coat Hook
The Art of Storage sent me one of these wide-mouth coat hooks, and I’m thrilled. It doesn’t leave a crappy “nipple” on the back of your jackets, and it looks good hanging on the wall. Plus, you can change out that triangular face plate in the middle if you want the color to match your room. An excellent place to hang those shirts you’ve been meaning to take to the dry cleaner. For a month.

Lavender Sachet
Lavender sachets keep moths at bay and make your drawers devine. I especially like these because they lack lace, a pastel calico casing, or a vague Grandma aftersmell.
