Pretty things to hide your dirty messes.

I was a new mum with a tiny, brand new baby who was capable of making the most obscene messes.

I didn’t think it was too much to ask to be able to leave the house and have a way of transporting said messes home again without using plastic bags, which, let’s face it, are not only terribly unfriendly to the environment, but also butt ugly to look at.

Turns out, yes, that was too much to ask. There were bags alright, but they were either too big, too small or too…mean to my eyeballs.

So I did what any sleep deprived mother of a non sleeping, epic mess making machine of a baby would do: I taught myself to sew, researched suitable materials and fabrics and made dozens of bags until I found the perfect sizes. Friends started buying them to use for themselves, to give as gifts and I started daydreaming about not going back to my day job.

These days, Cloud Love Baby bags travel all over the globe and are used in all sorts of ways. No longer just the domain of mothers with messy babies using the bags to carry cloth wipes and dirty clothes, Cloud Love Baby’s waterproof bags can also be used as cosmetic bags, make up bags, to carry wet swimmers after a trip to the beach or the pool and are especially handy for holding and containing all those bottles of shampoo, moisturiser, etc, that are likely to pop the lids and explode all through your luggage while flying.
