It’s no secret that I love Ikea.  Here’s another one of my favorite Ikea hacks.  Has anyone checked out their line of Ikea Family travel bags? They are great quality for a fraction of the cost.  E picked out a backpack at the beginning of the school year.  What a great bag- it’s so well thought out, there pockets for everything!  The backpacks start at $19.95 and the toiletry cases are $7.95.  I took them to the Stitching Station at the mall (I need to find a better source for embroidery– it’s highway robbery over there.)  Look at how cute they turned out!

E’s back to school gear.

One for Anna… It had to be blue, of course.

Daddy was in desperate need of a replacement.

A case full of sunscreen for the beach bag.

They even make great gifts…

Just fill them up with goodies for the birthday girl or boy.
