The personalized duffle bags offered by Mint are made from their signature fabrics and measure 18” by 9.5.” While not big or too small, the duffle bags are perfect for sending your child off to stay at a friend’s house for the night, or for using it for a day trip. Since the bag is small, it can easily be put into any cubby hole or nook and cranny you can find. The embroidery found between the handles measures 4.5” wide, and with “Match Border” software, you can choose your custom colored bag and find a unique embroidery pattern that matches the rest of the bag. In addition to the duffle bag, Mint also offers lunch boxes and backpacks to complete the set.

Also available are duffle bags from Stephen Joseph, a leading designer of child oriented bags and accessories. Stephen Joseph bags are manufactured from 100% quilted cotton, meaning they are not only fashionable, but also easily machine washable for all of those unexpected accidents. Not quite as big as the bags offered by Mint, Stephen Joseph’s duffle bags measure a smaller 15” by 9.” Still, as a gift to a new mom looking to carry some baby accessories around, or a child looking to head over to their friend’s house for the night, Stephen Joseph duffle bags are a great size to carry all of the essentials for any occasion.

Back in April, we heard from a customer of ours by the name of Jami. She was getting ready to head out on a family vacation, and unlike previous trips where her kids were restless and unwilling to help out getting things prepared for the time away, this time things were different. Jami ordered her children, Adam and Lynn, a set of duffle bags so that they would be able to identify their own bags of things, and help keep some clutter out of her own purse and bag we’re sure. Posy Lane was able to rush deliver the duffle bags to her for her vacation, and we were surprised to find out from her that instead of sitting around, Adam and Lynn actually wanted to help their mom out with the trip packing. "Thank you for rushing the kid’s duffle bags to us, they made it just in time for our vacation trip. Adam and Lynn were very eager to help pack. Thanks again!"

Considering the quality of both Stephen Joseph’s and Mint’s duffle bags, it’s no wonder we receive as many emails as we do regarding how much our customers enjoy their purchase and how helpful the bags have been for either themselves or their children. Posy Lane does its best to help customers like Jami get their bags and products in time for special events like family vacations.

If you’re on the fence about buying one of these for your child, consider this. Most backpacks and bags are not only expensive, in the hands of children they’re sure to break a few months down the line anyway. Mint and Stephen Joseph have built a reputation for themselves as the leading manufacturers of personalized duffle bags and offer a variety of color and customization options, unlike other retailers. The bags are much cheaper than traditional small duffle or overnight bags and with a custom color set and impeccable quality, it’s a no brainer why mom’s like Jami are happy they purchased one.

As an unforeseen benefit, if you’re thinking of purchasing one of these for your little one, you can help them learn to limit their packing for trips. Instead of bringing all of their favorite toys over to their friends’ houses, you can help them figure out what they can and can’t fit inside of their personalized duffel bag. The colors and name printed on the bag are sure to bring a smile to your child’s face as he or she packs for their next trip, as they know that the bag is theirs and it doesn’t have a “mom and dad” feel to it.
