Summer Time!

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 00:00:00 -0700

The final school bell rings and summer vacation has finally begun. My kids are excited to fill their schedules with amusement park visits, movies, & some distant trips where hotel stays are involved. It is a challenge to keep them entertained so creativity is a for sure a must.

With the weather getting warmer it is crucial to keep them well hydrated and fed. Now that I have created these insulated totes and backpacks, I make sure I don't leave home without some ice cold bottled water and juices, some sandwiches, and fruit snacks. This will save me a fortune because as soon as we walk out the door, my kids are already yelling "I'm Thirsty" or "I'm hungry, can we stop at McDonalds?"

Don't get caught empty handed. Visit www.IcyDiamondTotes.com and check out our convenient and compact insulated totes and backpacks. At the end of summer, you will be thankful you did.

Satisfied Mom!

I have to share how much I love our new icy tote!
First off the construction is amazing you know how some insulated bags pop their seams after a month? not this one it could survive going to school with my 7 year old and trust me nothing survives going to school with MY 7 year old. We got to use it the other day when we went to dinner at my in laws house. my 6 month old is still on a one thing at a time diet so I brought her some premade food from home. All my kids were also fighting off a cold so I was giving them hi...ghlands tablets every 4 hours. I was able to easily pack a baby food jar size container of coconut squash soup, a same size container of baby cereal, a baby spoon, two different bottles of highlands tablets, and two full coverage bibs plus the ice pack, and the clip made it easy to just hook onto my diaper bag. This is officially our baby snack bag. and gets clipped onto the diaperbag every time we leave the house. It's so much easier to find a snack for one of my kids in the tote then it is to search through the diaperbag, and I can keep food cold in the tote without having an ice pack in the diaper bag making the diapers cold.- Jan

This past weekend in Southern CA the temperatures reached a high in some areas of 112 degrees.

Visit our website at www.IcyDiamondTotes.com and check out these cool Insulated bags. They are truly Cooler than a Cooler. Type in COOL2010 (all caps) in the Promo Code section to receive 30% off.

Nice Romantic Weekend

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 00:00:00 -0700

My husband and I celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary this past weekend and we took a short trip to Palm Springs. The weather was 102 degrees but thankfully we had some cool wind blowing through which made it somewhat bareable. We did our usual golf outing and thankfully we had our Icy Diamond Tote Backpack with us because we were able to pack some sandwiches and cold drinks. I was amazed at how cold it was with the temperatures scorching at 102 degrees. Later that night we went to the movies and decided to pack the Icy Diamond Tote backpack with some cold drinks and surely enough we did and it saved us $12 at the snackbar. With the stylish look of the bag, the attendant thought it was a purse and didn't even question whether it was a cooler. I highly recommend you check out these insulated bags. You will definitely find uses that will eventually pay off!

The insulated Backpacks are available and ready to order. They are so convenient to use and are great for families who spend most of their time at the park.

Sometimes we are at the park for 5 house and the Icy Diamond Tote Backpack is great to carry some cold drinks, sandwiches, and even some fruit or vege sticks.

Sat, 20 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0700

Adults as well as children enjoy spending their day at the Happiest Place on Earth- Disneyland. What is involved in preparing for a fun, filled day at this amazing amusement park? Packing for the essentials like extra clothing, jackets, sunglasses, suncreen, medication, if needed, water, and snacks. Why not add an Icy Diamond Tote insulated bag on the list. It is cold, compact, and convenient to carry small snacks, a drink, or even your medicine. The carabiner hook is great to help clip to a pant loop or larger bag. It can even be worn as a fanny pack so it allows you to be hands free at all times. I recommend you try it out. Some of my customers have and reported back how convenient it was.

Icy Diamond Totes Featured in Earnshaw Magazine for ABC Kids Expo 09

Wed, 14 Oct 2009 00:00:00 -0700

I just received a phone call from a fellow Boutique Owner, BabyJakes.net, that Icy Diamond Totes was featured in Earnshaw's Prestige Magazine for the ABC Kids Expo that took place in Vegas last month. What a GREAT surprise! Nice to hear that our Icy Diamond Totes are picking up visibility in the Kids Accessory & Gift areas.

Snack Time vs. Lunch Time

Wed, 16 Sep 2009 00:00:00 -0700

My son's a kindergartener and now his school requires his lunch to be separated from his snacks. He receives two snack breaks and a lunch break. The great thing about the Icy Diamond Tote is that I can pack cold snacks and a drink like a Capri Sun and some string cheese or grapes. When the weather averages about 90 - 100 degrees a cold snack is much more refreshing than a warm one. Don't you agree?

Not Enough Hours in A Day...

Thu, 20 Aug 2009 00:00:00 -0700

Ever feel that there is not enough hours in a day? Especially to fit in a good 8 hours of sleep. Welcome to my world. There are even weekends that can't provide Rest & Relaxation. I'm talking about getting up at 7:30 am on a Saturday morning to take the boys to practice. Then, run to the bank and make a deposit. Stop by the gas station to fill up the car and while I'm close by might as well wash the car. Wow! I look at my watch and it is already noon. I'm glad I packed my Icy Diamond Tote with a 10 oz water and same grapes to snack on because by now I am starving. Next, I have to stop at the grocery store to stock up on milk and snacks for the week. Because with 3 hungry boys at home, I can't keep the cupboards stocked for long. Oops! I need to stop at the post office to pick up some flat rate boxes for my Icy Diamond Tote deliveries. Now is a good time to munch on some healthy chocolates that I packed in my Icy Diamond Tote Bag. By now, it is already 4:00 pm and I need to start thinking about what to make or pick up for dinner. After dinner, I need to clean the kitchen and place a load of laundry in the wash. But wait, now I need to fold the load I did last night. When will I find some time to take a 15 minute nap? NEVER... Now I spend some time to play with the boys, whether it's playing catch outside or engaging in a game of Monopoly. It's 7:30 pm and I walk upstairs to check on emails and address any messages that were left during the week. Wow! It is 10:00 pm and it's time to put the boys to bed and finally spend some one on one time with hubby. Ready to pop the movie video in? Sound familiar?
