Thirty One Mini Organizer Tote {Review & Giveaway}

When Thirty One Consultant Laura Phillips contacted me about reviewing a Thirty One Mini Organizer Tote, I have to admit - I was thrilled - like a kid in a candy store.  I have been admiring Thirty One products everywhere from the pool to the grocery store this summer.  As if the patterns aren't catchy enough, wait until you see how wonderful they are for organizing!  I'll admit - these definitely could quickly become my newest addiction!

Let me start by saying this "mini" tote is far from mini.  At 7"h x 12"w x 4"d, it's amazingly roomy and durable!  It many be called "mini" but it sure packs a punch when it comes to organizing all of those "little things" that can easily make a big mess.  Here are a few examples of ways I was able to put this organizer to use:

• Store TV remotes in the outer pockets.  On the interior, place a book, papers, a pen, iPad, magazines, etc and leave by the couch in the living room
• Fill the interior with coupon organizer, wallet, paper, grocery shopping list and keys.  Use the outer pockets to hold iPhone, a pen, lip gloss, sunglasses and other accessories
• When travelling, use the pockets to hold liquid medications and vitamins,  use the interior for hair brush, accessories, headbands, and other knick knacks
•  Load the inside with diapers or swim diapers, wipes, a change of clothes.  Use the pockets for hand sanitizer, diaper cream, lotions, and baby sunblock.  It's the perfect portable changing caddy
• For the beach or pool, use the outer pockets for sunglasses, sunscreen, lip balm, to hold a few dollars, keys  Fill the inside with a book, snacks, a water bottle
• Use the outer pockets to hold scissors, pens, markers, crayons.  Tuck various coloring books and paper or craft supplies inside
• Organizing girl's hair accessories.  Use the pockets to hold a brush, detangling spray and mini hair clips, Tuck headbands, scarves and more inside
• It makes a wonderful makeup holder and its perfect for toting toiletries when going away
• My college age daughter said it would be perfect as a bath caddy to hold shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream, a brush, razor, washcloth, Qtips, etc.
• My son used it to hold his iPad, DS, DS games and a few DVDs to take back and forth to Grandma's house
• My youngest daughter has been using it to hold all of her mini dolls - Barbies, Polly Pockets, Disney Princess dolls and Lalaloopsy mini dolls and their accessories
