'The Usual Suspects' 11x14 pastel ©Karen Margulis click here to purchase $150 |
Never again! I just discovered a must have gadget at Target that will ensure I will never be without a trash bag again.
The bag holder opened to show the roll of baggies |
Clipped to my backpack and ready for trash! |
It's called a Bag 'N Bags Disposable Bag Dispenser by J.L. Childress Co. It is a small 3x2" canvas pouch which holds a roll of plastic bags (the kind you use for dog walking duty) The pouch has a velcro flap and a slit for the bags. The best part is the carbiner clip so you can attach the pouch to your backpack.
Now I will never be out in the field without a trash bag again. I can think of a lot of other reasons why I'll be glad to have a plastic bag so handy...
- wet clothes
- quick rain cover for my pastels in unexpected rain.
- A bag to cover a painting in case of sudden rain.
- several bags could be a makeshift ground cover to protect my bag from wet dewy grass.
- a bag to hold souvenirs from the field....I could have used one for the pinecones I collected!
Painting notes: Today's painting is a demo for a private class. It is 11x14 on brown Canson paper.
Good idea!
ReplyDeleteToo often I forget mine.... Thanks!
Thanks so much for the tips! And the painting on Canson paper....very lovely
ReplyDeleteLove today's painting, it's extraordinary. I am studying your sky holes in the rows of trees, because I'm learning to negative paint tree shapes that way and they're so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteCool gadget! Very convenient. I love it when you paint plein air, you come back with such great paintings.
Those bags would help a lot for when supplies themselves need to be suddenly waterproofed. I had a weird page or two that got rained on while I was out at the clinic garden and wished I'd had something plastic to protect the unfinished page.
