i love my period

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

Some of you ladies might remember my post about a month ago which had a few pictures of a little bag I had made for a friend. It read "I ♥ my period" and was made for holding pads/tampons. I got a lot of really positive comments from this community regarding them, as well as from some other friends elsewhere. Seeing as how I have tons of free time, I decided I would try to make more for those that were interested in buying one.


I have made only 11 of these so far, so if more than 11 people are interested I will make more if necessary.



This is what the bag looks like. They are roughly 4" x 6", large enough to hold a few pads, tampons, or pantyliners.


A side view, so you can see the red zippered closure and red contrast stitching (I am a dork for things that obsessively match).


Each bag was individually hand printed and assembled/ sewn by me. The material used is sturdy white cotton canvas, and the text is done with permanent riso ink.

Each bag comes stocked with supplies:
1. Your choice of one instead softcup, or 1 pad
2. 3 individually wrapped unscented pantyliners
3. 1 pocket size menstrual calendar/predictor designed by my boyfriend and myself.
So you can always be prepared. Throw this bag in your purse or backpack, no need to worry if your flow starts early.

The bags are $15 each, and the shipping is free.

If anyone is interested, just leave a comment or send me an email at disclaimher at yahoo dot com. I can take checks, money orders, and paypal. I would prefer if cash wasn't sent through the mail, because I don't want it to go lost or stolen.

Or, if you have any questions that weren't answered, just let me know and I'll do my best.
"I ♥ sex" bags coming soon.

Yours sincerely yours,
Jane

Those are so cute. If I had income right now, I would totally buy one. :)

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

Understood. I dont have an income right now either.

[miss-kaiba.livejournal.com]

Those are so adorable. I would so buy one myself but I don't have the money right now. :(

I hope you get a lot of orders for those!

[eras3r.livejournal.com]

LOL I'd use one at school even for a pen pouch just to disgust the guys in my classes!

[pyro-girl.livejournal.com]

ohmygawd, ditto.

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

That's a hot idea!

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

thanks!

Pretty cool, but..

I HATE my period. I've heard other girls say before that they love their period because it makes them feel feminine, but I don't need that to make me feel like a woman. PLEASE explain this to me (in no way am I trying to be mean). I dread my period every time; the pain is unbearable and it's just a horrible experience each and every time.

BTW, my name is Jane too :)

Hey, I hate mine too, but maybe those bags would make things easier?

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

Yeah, sometimes I love my period because I feel feminine (and it means I'm not pregnant!). But sometimes, when the cramps are so bad and my crotch feels like a swamp because of all the moisture and heat - I don't love my period at all.

Lots of women like the bags because they love their period, but my I made one for a friend and she liked it, because the statement can be read sarcastically too.

rofl @ swamp crotch...that explains it perfectly.

I just used the term "swamp ass" the other day...it was for a gross reason though, so you'll have to ask if you really want to know.

i loved those those the first time that i saw them, they're precious! too bad i already have a tampon carrying case.

your boyfriend designed a menstrual calender with you? wow... and i thought my x was the best for buying me choccies & massaging my abdomen.

[--heartattack.livejournal.com]

second those = since ha.

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

Yeah, my boyfriend is a really awesome guy!

[the-good-crazy.livejournal.com]

Mine wont buy anything "womanly". He said he may bend the rule when he knocks me up and I am recovering from pushing a baby out. He damn well better.

Hey, I'd like one but
1)I live in Australia
2)I have no credit card or checkbook so it'd have to be cash and I don't know the whole conversion of american $$ to aussie dollars.

BUT I REALLY WANT ONE!! Can you see a way around this?

[skeptictank.livejournal.com]

PayPal

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

1. I can ship to australia, but it might cost a buck or two extra.
2. You can always send an international money order, or just use paypal.

If you want one, just email me sometime.

[moolahboots.livejournal.com]

What is paypal?

[disclaimher.livejournal.com]

paypal.com is a way to send someone money online through your bank account or credit card. It allows you to convert currency and make an instant payment to anyone else connected to paypal.

[moolahboots.livejournal.com]

Ahh, okay.

Holy crap I'm all set with the loving my periods stuff, but keep me posted when you get an "I heart Sex" Bag.

Since you don't change them enough to warrant putting them in a purse, I keep my patches in the blue bag zippered that they come in, as well as the little calendar stickers and some info that I like to keep handy, but the bag is HUGE. Also, I've been looking for some little container to keep condoms in @ my bf's house. They always end up falling out of the box and scattered around under the bed, which makes for a really ungraceful transition into sex, you know?

I keep thinking if they were in some little box with a lid or bag with a zipper, there wouldn't be any of this, "no I'm pretty sure there was one more, I just can't remember where it went...hold on, let me look for it."
