An Incredibly Brief History of Valentine's Day
Valentine’s Day has long been associated with love, romance, and meaningful gifts. Celebrated every year on *February 14, the holiday traces back to ancient Rome and the story of St. Valentine, whose acts of love eventually inspired a tradition centered on affection and connection.
Over time, Valentine’s Day evolved into a celebration of heartfelt expression — and the heart symbol became its most powerful icon. Hearts represent love, care, devotion, and emotional truth. Today, they also represent something just as important: self-love and self-worth.
Hearts Are No Longer Just About Romance
Modern Valentine’s Day isn’t only about couples. It’s also about honoring yourself, your boundaries, and your value. That’s why scattered heart designs feel so meaningful. Instead of one perfect heart, scattered hearts represent real emotions — confidence, independence, softness, and strength all at once.
Our Scattered Hearts Bags are designed to be more than accessories. Instead, they’re wearable reminders that love starts inside you. Because if you don’t love you, how can you expect anyone else to? And, how can you give something to another that you don’t possess yourself?
Love Me or Leave Me: A Message of Self-Worth
The “Love Me or Leave Me” message isn’t about rejection. It’s about clarity. It’s about claiming your birthright as a human on our green, watery planet. It’s about knowing who you are and refusing to shrink to be accepted.
Carrying this message tells the world:
* I value myself.
* I honor my boundaries.
* I don’t chase approval.
These heart-pattern bags and notebooks let you show the public exactly how you feel about yourself. You, my dear, are confident, grounded, and unapologetic! As you should be.
Why Scattered Hearts Bags Make the Perfect Valentine’s Day Gift
A scattered hearts bag blends romantic style with everyday function. It’s subtle enough for daily use, yet meaningful enough to feel personal. These bags are also made to last for the long term, unlike many relationships which come and go.
Perfect for:
* Valentine’s Day gifts.
* Self-love and confidence reminders.
* Romantic but modern fashion lovers.
* Everyday use (work, errands, school, travel, gym).
Great for gifting to:
* Girlfriends and partners.
* Best friends and Galentines.
* Teens and young adults.
* Anyone embracing confidence and self-respect.
Valentine’s Day Ordering Notice: Order Early

May your heart be full of love for yourself, your loved ones, and Mama Earth.

An Environmentally Friendly Tip: How to Reuse Plastic Storage Bags
Whether we like it or not, plastic storage bags are a part of our lives. Unfortunately, they’re so wasteful. There has to be another option.
There is! Reuse them.
Instead of tossing them after a single use, there’s a simple way to save money, reduce waste, and stay organized. Reusing plastic bags isn’t just eco-friendly; it’s a practical way to stretch your household budget while keeping small items and snacks neatly stored.
Clean Them Properly
Cleaning plastic bags correctly is key to safe reuse. Here’s how to do it:
Rinse immediately after use – leftover food or residue can harbor bacteria.
Wash with warm, soapy water – turn the bag inside out to clean corners and seams thoroughly.
Air dry completely – hang or place on a drying rack to prevent moisture buildup.
Tip: Avoid reusing bags that held raw meat, oily foods, or anything moldy — safety first!
Tip 2: I like to sort mine by size (see picture) and roll them. I use a large rubber band to hold them together and stash them in my drawer with other storage baggies and foil. This way they stay neat and I don't forget to reuse them.
Repurpose Them
Once cleaned, these bags can have a second life in your home:
Snack storage - perfect for portioning treats for work or school.
Travel organization - separate toiletries, electronics, or cables.
Drawer organization - store small items like craft supplies or makeup samples.
Camping - hold a freshly used toothbrush or wet clothes after swimming.
Speaking of Bags
While reusable plastic bags are great for small organization tasks, nothing beats having a durable, reliable cosmetic bag for your everyday essentials or travel. I recently got a sample of my favorite cosmetic bag, and it’s been a game-changer for keeping my items neat and accessible.
Here’s why I love it:
Spacious yet compact – fits makeup and skincare for easy access.
Durable materials – easy to clean, so it stays fresh and ready for daily use.
Versatile design – works for home, travel, or even as a small organizer in your tote.
This small bag offers ultimate portability and organization. It’s the perfect way to combine eco-friendly habits with style and practicality.
Tip: Reuse a clean storage bag for stashing dusty eyeshadows and powders in the cosmetic bag. It will keep everything dust free and extend the appearance of your bag.
