And we also have one to giveaway to one of my lucky readers!!
I am fortunate that I live only an hour away from Aurora, NY, where you can find the Mackenzie-Childs store, production studio, farm and talented artists.
They also have a new store at Del Lago Casino, which is only 45 min away!
I started the blogger group of "The Tales of the Traveling Tote", where 12 of us share our travels and tales of places our MacKenzie-Childs tote bags take us. We have named our tote bags and purses and I have decided that my new tote will be "Mr. Dilly". You can read about my travels in the past few years HERE. We will all share our next "tales" on March 1st, so stop back to travel along with us!
As you probably already know, I have been a fan and collector of many of their products since 1983. I enjoy their ceramics, enamel, furniture, home decor and especially their accessories. You might remember this post (MEN!), where I lost this battle:
When I received the generous gift of this Courtyard Tote Bag from Mackenzie-Childs, the first thing that came to my mind is that it will be a perfect "beach tote"! It is the ideal size to hold all my beach gear, a good book as well as my lunch tote!
We have had over 100" of snow this winter so I am dreaming of warm weather, sunny days and summer cocktails!
The designers love interpreting MacKenzie-Childs style in new ways, and the all-weather weave of the Large Courtyard Tote proved the perfect challenge. The striking woven diamond pattern is dressed up with an accent tassel and a MacKenzie-Childs nameplate, all in cream and black with touches of gold. This tote is made of all-weather plicker, with a wooden tassel head with poly-rayon silk, and a gold-plated metal alloy with enamel accent. Count on this casual-chic tote as your go-to from beach weekend to farmers’ market to garden party and beyond. The tote measures: 17" wide, 11" long handle, 13.5" tall
