Annie's Trunk and Matching Laundry Bag

It's February and customers are already gearing up for summer camp.  They're either really good planners or they have some serious cabin fever going on with their kids!  Regardless, I just had to post details of the latest summer camp trunk I made.

The task:  Annie is going to camp and wants a pink trunk, but her camp colors are orange and blue.  Her mother and I searched online and in local fabric stores for material that incorporated these colors and was suitable for a young girl.  This was not an easy assignment!  Together we chose 'Hootie Tootie Cutie Floral' and 'Hootie Tootie Cutie Stripe' to coordinate.  The result was adorable!

Check out the matching laundry bag.  Her mother actually ordered two--good thinking!  She must be the 'really good planner' parent and not the 'cabin fever' one.

I chose to add an orange pocket with a blue monogram to the laundry bags to accentuate the camp colors and to provide a spot to stash laundry money.  The orange piping that trims both the lid and base of the trunk helps tie it all together.  Overall, Annie and her mom loved the trunk and laundry bags.  She is ready for summer.  If only Mother Nature would be!!
