cosmetic bag (or set of 2)

My girls, when they were in college and even now (in their 30's), could never have enough tote bags. They use them for groceries, for all purchases, they store stuff in their cars in them, take an extra change of clothes when they don't want to take a duffel - just about anything. I like to add a big button to the top with a bit of elastic cording. This way they can roll them up, wrap the cording around and it makes a tiny little roll to fit in purse or glove box of car.

I made my 20 something grand daughters the potato chip bags and all four of them loved them. I made one with music note fabric for the music major, one with Paris fabric because she was attending a semester there etc. I also think a tote bag would be well received or maybe a zip up bag for cosmetics.

How about a duffel bag? I finished one not long ago for a graduation gift & really like it. It seems the perfect size for a carry on bag for a flight or train/bus/road trip. Seems like it would have many versatile uses.

There's nothing like a throw ,

One of these... I gifted two of these already and they were both huge hits!
