BABY by Danish


Hello all!

I was given an opportunity to review a Classic Wet Bag from BABY by Danish.  One word: Wow!  This is a great bag!  The ultra super cute print I picked is called Earthy Owls.  BABY by Danish offers six really sleek designs {check them out here}.



The size listed for these bags is 12 inches (width) by 14 inches (height).  However, my bag did shrink down to 10 1/2 by 13 inches.  The outer cotton is a really thick cotton, and even if you line dry it, there would be some shrinking because of the hot water in the wash.  Rachel (the owner) was prepared for this: "I love the look and feel of our thick duck cotton but unfortunately it does shrink, so I tried to design this into the dimensions of the bag knowing that the bags will be washed.  I actually sized the exterior cotton to be an inch and a half longer than the lining so it shrinks to 13-13.5" to fit the lining after being washed."  Way to be on top of things!  And she's right, even thought it shrunk down some, the lining still fits inside the outer cotton.  And really, the prints are incredibly adorable so it's totally worth it!  I've gotten several compliments while out and about with this wet bag. =)


Now about that inner lining, it's REALLY thick!  I REALLY like it!  I decided to test out the wet bag a little differently than normal - I used it to protect a book, composition notebook, my wallet, and phone while I was at the gym. Even though it was sitting against my super wet towel, everything on the inside stayed dry.  I didn't really expect anything different, but it was fun to do a "reverse test." =)  I have not had any odor issues with this either.  Using it for diapers, everything stays inside.


I found that the bag could hold 4 AIO diapers or 4-5 inserts and 3 shells.  
It's the perfect size for a day of running around.


One really handy feature is the cotton twill handle with poly snap.  Many of the smaller-ish wet bags do NOT have this function and this is a MAJOR perk in my book!  In fact, this wet bag will be spending most of it's days in our bathroom - hanging - just waiting for our used, wet, cleaning wipes to be tossed into it.  I just started doing a lot of natural cleaning in our home and I love being able to use cloth wipes for this purpose - and a hanging bag is a MUST.




PLEASE NOTE: this giveaway will close on April 25, 2012 at 9pm(est). At that time, I will use random.org to choose a winner. The winner will be emailed and have 72 hours to respond, lest a new winner be chosen.
