For Humans Behind the Scenes

Model Transport

Stylish and Official

Have you ever had to make one or two or more trips from the house to a photo location with your models and props? Good exercise, but time consuming. I have a solution!

Viola!  The perfect bloggist's gear carrier. I added the blog name to make its use official. 
It's a Thirty-One Large Utility Tote [I saw Target has something similar, but not as strong and can't be personalized] with additional lid and insert.

Everyone fits inside. [Melody aside: Sure if you don't mind feet in your face or hair - it's almost like playing sardines in here. (giggling)] The lid protects on rainy days.

The special insert adds 6 mesh pockets.  There are other ways to add zipper pockets if you want, but they aren't necessary.

All 5 models, the camera, a few props, and 6 pets (Starbright, Nutmeg, Lulu, Monk Seal, Razzie, and the ducklings complete with incubator) fit nicely inside. [Lanie aside: Seriously, Melody, when did you last wash  your feet?. (giggling)] Here it is repacked.
Would also be perfect for one model and all her gear for trips. We keep our AG boxed clothes in a few of these totes too. 

If you are ever in southeastern PA and see this tote, feel free to come over and say hello.


Best wishes,

  2. I'll be in PA this summer :) This is so cute ! I had something similar from Personal Creations and I loved it . I don't think it had a lot of storage and was sturdy like yours .

    1. The base tote doesn't have much structure and folds flat easily, but is still great for outings. The ones I was using keep getting repacked with doll clothes, so now I have on specifically for outings. :)

    1. It's a bit bulky, but the handles will go over your shoulder like a duffle or purse.

  5. I have one of these, somewhat similar, it is used for beach towels but what a great new use for it! I love that the name of the blog is embroidered onto the bag, it looks so official and adorable!
