Cafe Press Review & Giveaway

Café Press Messenger Bag & Journal Review

Cafe Press Messenger Bag

Product Sample: Cafe Press Messenger Bag!

One of the things I love about blogging is that I have the opportunity to discover fabulous companies I might not otherwise hear about – and, in turn, introduce those companies to you!

Case in point:

Recently, Café Press – a unique company that allows you to create personalized gifts for your family, friends and pets – invited me to visit their website and review a few of my favorite products – and, in turn, offer a gift certificate to one of my lucky readers!

How cool is that?

Needless to say, it did not take long before my fingers went happily hopping over to their website!

Here’s what I discovered:

Cafe Press Messenger Bag Open

Product Sample: The Cafe Messenger Bag Is Huge!

Café Press offers just about everything you can imagine! In the mood for some new clothes? Why not design your own t-shirt! Headed to the beach? Check out their amazing selection of flip flops! You can even create your own custom accessories for your home, car and office by adding your own photos, logos or personalization to it!

Of course – if the possibilities are too great too imagine – you can always browse to your heart’s content, then pick your favorite pre-designed products, like I did! There were so many items to choose from, it took me a week to figure out what I wanted!

I finally decided on two items (and I love them both!)

Cafe Press - Paris Bag 3

This bag is roomy, stylish, durable – everything I hoped it would be!

First, I wanted a stylish bag that would be perfect for toting notebooks and books in, so I picked the Vintage Paris Eiffel Tower Messenger Bag. I could not be happier with my choice!

This bag has outside pockets for your cell phone, inside pockets and rings for your keys and small valuables, and more room than I dreamed possible!

I grabbed a handful of books off of my desk and put them inside to give you an idea of how roomy this bag is – there was still room to spare!

Cafe Press - Cherry Blossom Journal

Product Sample – Cafe Press Journal

I also picked up a pretty Cherry Blossom Journal! Cafe Press has so many journals to choose from, I never finished looking at all of the designs!

The 5 x 8 journal has 160 pages. One of the things that I love about Café Press journals is that you have your choice of 4 different paper options! I chose lined paper for mine!

Cafe Press - Journal Inside

Product Sample

I really love my Café Press products and I think you would too! To see all that Café Press has to offer:

      Thanks Bev – I LOVE this bag and can’t recommend it highly enough! I was torn between this one and one of their beach bags – I’m SO glad I went with this one! It is nicer and roomier than I would have imagined from the site!

      The journal is nice too – great for every day notes – but I REALLY love the bag!

      One of the nice things about Cafe Press is, once you find a theme you like – you can find several coordinating products!

    This is an awesome looking bag! The Journal is neat and looks like it can hold all kinds of hand written info in one spot. You can even doodle on it! Cool give away.

      Good points Mary – I was tempted to go with the blank paper for doodling, but ended up going with the lined paper for journaling and note-taking!
      Thanks for joining in – best of luck to you!

    Have ordered from Cafe Press previously. I ordered the most adorable aprons with a cupcake print as gifts. I am not sure what I would order…most likely something with cats on it. Thanks, Janet

      Hi Mary,

      I flip over filp flops too, and could easily have a shoe wardrobe centered around nothing but flip flops if my budget and closet space allowed!
      Best of luck to you in the giveaway – so glad you got your e-mail updated so you won’t miss out on any of the upcoming events and giveaways! 🙂

  13. That looks like a great bag! Back in the day I had a Cafepress “store” and sold various things with my nature photos on them. It’s a good business and a fun website to check out for goodies.
