    I’d use it to bring produce home from the Union Square Greenmarket! I’m moving back to NYC next month and I *miss* my farmer’s market deliciousness.

  • Lizzie Ross

    I would use my fabulous Bonzai Bag for toting books, or maybe yarn for crocheting and knitting!

  • raechel

    Of course I’d use that Bonzai bag for trips to the farmer’s market and co-op, and for my general “i can’t fit everything in my purse, so clearly i need to be a bit of a bag lady and take a second bag with me” kind of days. : )

  • raechel

    I like you on Facebook, duh. : )

  • raechel

    I tweet’d!

  • Lizzie Ross

    I just “liked” Bonzai Aphrodite on facebook!

  • raechel

    I shared this on my Rebel Grrl Kitchen facebook page!

    I like’d your facebook ;)

  • http://cjousnamer.wordpress.com/ Cassandra

    I would use it to carry my heavy books up the hill and across campus to class :)

  • http://twitter.com/felicitates felicitates

    I tweeted your lovely giveaway! http://bit.ly/vE1DQ0 and of course I always follow you! :)

    In general, if I could have a Bonzai bag, I would use it for everything. Go shopping with it at second hand stores, groceries, farmers markets, etc. If someone asked me where I got this bag, I would just start rambling on about this lovely blog that changed my life! I would tell them all the wonderful things you share and the amazing DIYs and fashions you prepare! Its my biggest wish in the world to get a bag from my favorite blogger! :)

  • Jen and Ken

    I just had this idea that won’t leave me alone, and your bag can be an accessory to my “crime!” (Punny, huh?) My idea was to return my library books with money, that’s right big bills, hidden inside them for some stranger to find later. I would use your bag to make a few people’s day!

    Ohmigoodness I would use a bonzai bag for EVERYTHING! I have an old floral tote bag that I have been using for everything since the beginning of time, and it’s fallin apart on me!
    A Bonzai Bag would be a fantastic replacement!

  • Alexander

    I do need a new library book bag. I can’t fit them in my backpack without tearing out the bottom of it and I’ll need to get some books for research purposes next semester, so probably books.

    And, you know what? I already follow you on twitter!

    “Totally fabulous” I was thinking it would be good for a craft project bag but I’d want people to see it out and about so I guess it would have to be a farmers market bag :) and for carrying packed lunches/ snacks around with me. Happy no reason whatsoever day to you too!

  • mastermama

    I would use this super awesome bag for so many, many reasons: to tote books, kid toys, mittens in the winter, lunch, extra shoes, as an overnight bag, co-op runs, carry my water bottle, beach toys in the summer, and so much more. Maybe it would be easier to write about what I would not use this lovely bag for…naw.

    I follow you on twitter too…

  • Mandie

    I would definitely use it as a grocery/FarMar bag, and as a bag to carry all the spoils from my home garden!

  • http://twitter.com/OliviaSweets Olivia Sweets

    Oh, girl. I “liked” Bonzai Aphrodite on facebook eons ago!

  • Alexander

    I meant to say that I tweeted about the contest.

  • mastermama

    aaaaand…I “like” you on FB:-)

  • Pied

    I would use it because it’s awesome. And you’re awesome. And of course it would be with me when I go to the grocery store/co-op/farmers market. Also to carry my laptop of course… maybe knitting.

    Oh man this si such a sweet comment. THANK YOU!

  • Mandie

    I retweeted your tweet about the bag give away.

  • Mandie

    And I liked you on Facebook already, but I liked your giveaway post there too!

  • Sonja Gaedicke

    This tote is so adorable. I would use it for grocery shopping in my favorite organic grocery shop, for going to my yoga class and for carrying the books around I’m reading at the moment.

  • http://bonzaiaphrodite.com/ Sayward Rebhal

    I love this idea! Reminds me of the spreading the love mission.

  • Sonja Gaedicke

    I already follow you on twitter.

  • Kati

    I would use it for knitting supplies! It’s so cute!

  • Sonja Gaedicke

    …and on facebook

  • Mizizzle

    The cotton reusable bag I’ve been using daily for maybe four years (!) is finally biting the dust. I’d love a simple, yet chic, replacement like this one! It’s understated yet carries such a strong statement!

  • http://bonzaiaphrodite.com/ Sayward Rebhal

    All your answers are seriously lighting up my day! AAAHHHHHH you guys are so wonderful!

  • ~L~

    re-tweeted :)

  • http://twitter.com/felicitates felicitates

    I’ve always wanted to write a blog post about how much I love your blog! So here it is also :)! http://felicitates.tumblr.com/post/13841215461/shout-out-to-bonzai-aphrodite-giveaway

  • Diana

    The reusable bag I’m using at the moment is about to bite the dust as well. I use one to carry around my shopping notebook, knitting or crochet projects, whatever book I’m reading and odds and ends that I pick up while out shopping. It’s usually quite full when I return home. :-)

  • Shell

    I would use it for books, veggies, kid supplies, all round this little town!

  • http://twitter.com/lilyelyse Lily Elyse

    I would use it for all my school books!

  • Jessie

    I like this style of bag because I bike to school and work carrying a violin; tote bags are perfect for storing in my milk crate “trunk” and for carrying after I arrive! Like several others, my cotton bag is getting pretty threadbare.

  • Gabrielle De Vries

    I would use it every day to school to carry my recycled notebooks and my knitting :) And my lunch while were at it — which is always fabulous in a “Bonzai” way with Masson jars!!!!

  • Jessie

    Edit: because the violin strap occupies one shoulder, so tote bags are a better option than backpacks.

  • K Havelka

    Ooh, I would use it for my trips to the local farmer’s market in season and to our local coop otherwise. I might also have to use it to tote my vegan knitting along with me as well….

  • lesley

    Looks like the perfect size for carrying vinyl records!

  • http://twitter.com/moonsandjunes Meghan Havens

    I would use your awesome bag to lug Trader Joe’s new coconut oil home….!! I could also use it for other groceries, goodies from the farmer’s market, toting stuff for the baby boy (only 15 more weeks!), and so many more things!

  • Vpescite

    CSA pickup, farmers market runs and groceries. And library books!

  • http://twitter.com/moonsandjunes Meghan Havens

    And I so totally like you on Facebook already… does that count?

  • http://www.facebook.com/minnatoots Minna Toots

    I would use the bag for showing it off, of course! :D
