School lunch packing time is upon us, and these clever lunch totes by Mimi the Sardine will make that pb&j much yummier. This company was started in the late 80’s by Pia Anderson, the mother of two daughters.  After designing and producing children’s clothing for Hanna Anderson and Garnet Hill, her company now specializes in functional products made from eco-coated cotton fabrics directly imported from Sweden and  manufactured in the San Francisco Bay area.  Items are permanently water and soil resistant yet remain soft and supple even after machine washing. Colorful aprons and backpacks are also available at Bluebirds & Hollyhocks. Who knew back-to-school could be such fun?!
