Though it’s still a bit chilly here in Chicago, we’re already dreaming of lunch time picnics along the lakefront that will be happening oh-so-soon!  What better way to package up some delicious noms than these beautiful handmade lunch bags?  Cinnamon Cooper creates both waxed canvas rolltop lunch bags and lined, zipper-closure snack and sandwich bags, so you can have a whole set to get you through lunchtime in style!

These bags are eco-friendly, water resistant, and easy to clean.   Better yet, they come with a lifetime warranty too!  Poise also carries a line of messenger bags, wristlets, and dopp bags as well, so no matter what you need to carry, Poise has you covered in style.

 

More about her work:  “Cinnamon Cooper taught herself to sew on her Holly Hobby sewing machine when she was a wee lass. She made the cutest outfits for her cats and dolls. When she got older it took a while for her skills to catch up with her style. Eventually she realized that sewing handbags and totes was great fun because they didn’t have to fit her hips or her waist. About the same time, she got huge urges to help save the world and began making and donating bags to raise money for non-profit organizations. The ego boosts she received from these sales, combined with an ever-increasing fabric stash, made her swallow her fear and create www.Poise.cc — a small handbag empire where politics are fashionable and where handbags are designed to suit your purse-onality.”
