Gorgeous Monogrammed Gifts from Initials, Inc. *$50 Giveaway!* (Closed)

Whether I am traveling out of town on an event, or toting the family to the grocery store, I like to take along a handbag that is big enough for all my things that I need from my Couponizer, wallet, BlackBerry, and even being able to have room to put the kids things in there that we need, without having to take an additional bag with us or a diaper bag. I had the chance to work with Initials, Inc., and I have to say that from step one, I am beyond impressed.

First, I went to www.initials-inc.com, I browsed through their Flipping Book online catalog (which is so cool and easy to flip pages!). There were so many things that caught my eye. Initials, Inc. has something for everyone, literally!

  • Beach bags
  • Drinkware & party dishes
  • Totes
  • Computer bags
  • Handbags & Wallets
  • Monogrammed towels
  • Baby shower gift ideas
  • Lunch sacks & business gear
  • Car monogrammed decals
  • Kids things (Backpacks, lunch bags, water bottles)

The possibilities are endless as to what you can get from Initials, Inc.

I had a hard time choosing what I wanted. I wanted it all! I decided to go with the gorgeous upper east side Satchel in Raspberry (pink) with a brown monogram of my initials on the front.

Upper East Side Satchel

I read about Initials, Inc. and I am very impressed with who the company is, where they came from and what they stand for.

We believe, “There’s Only One You!” We believe that everyone was created for a God Given purpose. This philosophy is embodied by the products and opportunities offered to our Customers, Hostesses and Consultants.

Initials, Inc. was founded by Sisters – Britney Vickery and Ivy Hall shortly after becoming SAHM’s. During that time they loved being home with their children but found that they were seeking three things; to be challenged creatively, to have flexibility in schedule and to contribute financially to their homes…but they didn’t want to give up time with their young families to get it. Initials, Inc. was created to meet those needs as women and new mothers. Over time, they quickly realized that the solution that they created for themselves could be a blessing to other women. Initials, Inc. officially launched in February 2005. Today, Initials, Inc. is national in scope and is supporting women and families all across the country through home parties selling personalized gifts!

Personalization is always FREE!

MG thoughts

Here are some detailed pictures of the beautiful east side Satchel that I received:

The bottom has nickel ‘feet’ so that when you set your handbag down, it will protect the bottom from getting dirty.

1

The handles are also a gorgeous nickel as well.

2

There is plenty of room inside! My first thought of excitement with this handbag was that I have an upcoming bloggy trip and this handbag will fit everything I need in it for the flight. (Mini laptop, iPod touch, BlackBerry, wallet, and then some!)

The top closes with a hidden magnet.

The monogramming is simply gorgeous!

Overall: I LOVE this handbag! The ordering process was fun and very easy! You go through and can choose the lettering style that you want, choose the color that you want and order. It’s that easy! The price for this Satchel is $54.99 with free monogramming. Do I think it’s worth $54.99? Absolutely! To be honest, I expected this to be more for this with the quality and size that it is. All in all, Initials, Inc. gets two thumbs up and 5 stars all around!

    The Head Honcho Messenger Bag is definitely the one for me! I think I would get it in the chocolate color, ’cause it just looks so good. I could use it at interviews, but I could also go casual with it.
