Summery Bags

At some point during the spring and autumn every year, many people switch over between their summer and winter wardrobes. I did that last weekend – later than usual – and sure enough, the weather changed soon afterwards.

What about bags? I switched from a black and silver chenille bag to a more summery floral denim bag with pastel pink accents. What about you? Do you have different seasonal bags?

If you need a bit of inspiration for your holiday, a wedding, garden party, or just to pretend it’s summertime (despite the weather), take a look at these:

Fundraising for Foodbanks

You will have seen that very soon, domestic gas and electricity bills will virtually double. This will have a massive impact on the finances of the most vulnerable in our society, and foodbanks will become even more vital in supporting these people.

Throughout the 2020/21 global pandemic and lockdowns, most of our fundraising efforts have been donated to Porch Boxes, a foodbank serving those in need in and around Bury. We plan to continue with these donations, and you can help.

JeaniusBags has never before held any kind of stock sale, but we’re about to make a huge exception, and all proceeds will be donated to Porch Boxes. While stock last, you can buy anything at all from stock at a whopping 20% discount*. So get thinking – do you have birthdays or anniversaries to plan for? Valentine’s Day is in February, Mothering Sunday will be with us in March, and if you’re really organised, Father’s Day is in June!

So have a browse or our handbags, cross-bodies, bohos, messengers, totes, backpacks, “occasion” bags, travel accessories, purses, wallets, and of course, our original denim collection.

Remember – all of our bags have been lovingly handcrafted from scratch, and every purchase will help the vital work of Porch Boxes Bury.

*P&P costs will still have to be passed on – we are unable to absorb those additional costs without impacting on our fundraising efforts – but local purchasers can of course collect for free. Sale ends 31 January 2022.
