It’s a rather common story; we both had big time careers, “retired” to have kids, volunteered 1000 hours a year for 1000 different organizations….and then started to think of ideas for a business.  The ideas were…well…most of them ended in the “didn’t work file.”  But then one day, a very simple idea took shape.

We were both carrying our own grocery bags to the store….you know…those ugly green ones; the ones with all the store logos; the ones that were too small to hold anything….

We both thought…why don’t we design a “great looking reusable grocery bag…a bag with no logos, a bag that could be used for groceries and a million different things….

So here we are. We introduced Mixed Bag Designs in February 2008, and have been having a ball ever since.  We love our bags.  The prints and colors make us happy.  The fact that we are helping our environment makes us happy.  And the fact that our customers LOVE our bags…makes us real happy.

We have 3 sizes of bags:

The Original Grocery Bag:  Tall and deep.  Great for groceries, toys, car trips, laundry, big stuff.

The Department Store Bag:  Horizontal shoulder strap bag.  Take it to the mall.  Proudly say to the clerk “thank you, I have my own bag.”  Great for the beach.

The Drug Store Bag:  The little errand bag, gift bag, book bag.  It is the perfect size for all your papers and files!

Grocery Store Bag:	H18 x W14 x D9
