Wristlets Cant go Wrong
>> Wednesday, August 27, 2008
With two children under age 4... having my hands free at all times is a must. Carrying a purse for me ends up being a hassle. The purse ends up falling off my shoulder, getting in the way... having so much junk in it I cant find anything. I just prefer not to have one. The thing is I have to have something to hold my cell phone and wallet.
I have found the perfect solution ...
Maria Elena Designs is a wonderful Etsy shop that has some of the most beautifully crafted wristlet clutches I have ever seen. Not only is her work flawless but it works wonderfully.
My wristlet is large enough to hold all my major credit cards/library card/license, spare change, cash, checks, business cards and even my cell phone. It has a spare change pocket, two separate sections inside, slits for the cards and a detachable wristlet to wrap around your wrist. It is perfect.
This also fits beautifully into a diaper bag when needed. It is not overly chunky.
Buy It: For around $30.00 you can have a handmade wristlet of your own. Maria Elena Designs also offers a lot of fun hand made items... purses, key chains and more.
A Simple Coupon: Maria Elena Designs would like to offer our readers 10% off any order. To get the coupon just contact Mary through her Etsy store.. and she will send you a discounted invoice for your purchase.
Win It: To launch a new item at their store we get to giveaway their new ID Wallet and Keychain. When I saw the photo of this product I was so jealous to not have one of my own. This is a beautiful item!
To qualify for this giveaway simply comment on this post letting us know what item you liked best over at Maria Elena Designs.
If you do not blog please leave us a valid email address.

I like the Tiffin Vintage. This would be great because maybe it wouldn't get lost in my black hole.
I love the Handmade Wallet Wristlet in Amy Butler Lotus Tree Peony Pink -- I need a new wallet something bad!
Those are all so cute! I started using a wristlet and once you've used one, it's very difficult to go back to a purse.
These are just so chic and handy; I covet the miniature clutch in Tunisia Black and White.
Actually, it's a pretty long list ....

michele3873(at)msn(dot)com
I certainly know what you mean about not wanting to carry around a purse with you all the time. I've taken to just taking a wallet with me, but only problem with that is you still have to carry it. I really liked the The miniature clutch in tan twill. You can just hook it on, hands free and ready to go.

I like the miniature clutch in denim and tattoo. I usually just carry a wallet, but sometimes you need to carry a little something extra, but don't want to be bogged down with a purse. And fannypacks are so declasse.
I like the NEW The SAK - Canvas Shoulder Bag.

It's impossible to pick just one favorite item since all of their products look great. I really did like the cute Handmade Wallet Wristlet called Madison. This would make it possible to have a "free" hand.

I love the Magazine Tote - Amy Butler - Acanthus!
That's funny in a good way!!
I checked out the site and picked out my favorite item. I love totes so mine would be the magazine tote - Amy Butler - Acanthus - Texas Beauties $24.00
I just thought it was funny when I came back to enter the person just before me picked out the very same one. Must be a good pick!!
Those mini clutches on the first page (I like the blue) are so cute and perfect for me, I go without a purse alot, but still need to carry my id and a little bit of sweet moola.
I like all of the hand made wallets, esp any in blues, browns and with stars on them. Having a hard time choosing just one!
angelynn9916@hotmail.com
When I carry a purse I quickly become a messy packrat, so I'm always on the lookout for something like this! The blue and green poppies ID wallet is my favorite. And no place to horde tons of pens, ketchup and salt packets, and who knows what else. lol
I personally like the Handmade Wallet Wristlet in Amy Butler Lotus Tree Peony Pink which is weird for me b/c I am not a pink girl but it is calling my name :) Thanks for a great giveaway!
