Pouches and keys
I could no longer resist the urge to sort out my purse and organise things into pouches. I did try this briefly in the past but became disenchanted with the way I did it, and eventually wound up with a bunch of loose stuff in the bottom of my bag again.
I decided to try again though, as my bag needed dusting and clearing out anyway.
So here’s what I’ve got:
Bottom right: Cords, chargers, power bank (the big turquoise pineapple), torch, misc. tech.
Bottom left: Basic medical and emergency; plasters, painkillers, safety pins, hair ties/pins.
Top left: Feminine hygiene; Bodyform tins, wipes and tissues, Femfresh.
Top right: Glasses case, lens wipes, would fit sunglasses etc.
Mia Tui bags have a key clip on elastic so they’re easy to find. On the default clip I have a photo keyring of Freya, followed by an S-biner, and then my RADAR key. I can clip my main keys to that too.
Going down clockwise:
- Mini loyalty cards, I recently had the urge to take some off my wallet and put them back on my keys.
- Retro keyring of Djali from The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
- Trolley coin from the British Hen Welfare Trust. This used to be on my wallet too, but since my wallet is kept a couple of layers into my bag, it was more of a pain in the ass to reach for it for just a split second.
- Piece of kassam missile that was fired into Israel, now shaped and with “The Jews live” written on it. The blue stone marking Sderot fell off a while ago.
- A 3D-printed keyring of my nickname, because for some reason, when people saw my keys on the rack in the last house they were like “whose keys are these??”
- A PlayStation keyring that was a gift from my mother-in-law.
- An actual house key.
- A Slice gadget because I’ve been losing some hand function and struggling with packaging etc. It’s reasonably impossible to have an accident with the ceramic blade. There’s a similar Stanley one too.
- A StoryTeller Flag for Israel with a description of our trip on the back, Kadek has a matching one. We’ll get more when we go to more places!
And finally here’s lovely Joop!
Before I forget entirely, here are the pouches I used to organise things, they also have several other applications around the house.
