Spring & Summer Fun

2010-02-23T09:28:00.001-08:00

Here are the newest colors for the season. Pastel-y and sweet, I can't wait to see them out on the streets!

The Pocket Purse

2010-01-27T16:33:00.000-08:00

It's 13" wide, 12.5" to the top of the handle and 3" inches deep to carry everything you might need for the night. For all my Oregon State Beaver fans.

Parcel Pouch

Here she is. The newest nJoy design. 12.5" x 6.5" of total cuteness. Order now!!!

The Help

2009-12-15T08:20:00.000-08:00

Carly and Kirby take time away from nJoy to have fun, every once in a while. A weekend at the beach was cold, wet and exactly what we all needed.

Traveling Bags

2009-08-28T08:47:00.000-07:00

Yeah, so, these bags travel WAAAAAAYYYYY more than I do. I guess at least someone in the family is. Eleuthera in the Bahamas is where this photo was taken. I hope it had a good time.

The Portland Mercury!

2009-07-16T09:18:00.001-07:00

We made it to the cover of the Portland Mercury!

Heels + shopping = Bridgetown Chiropractic.

Charla and the Bangle Clutch

2009-07-14T08:30:00.000-07:00

The newest addition to the bag line up is the Bangle Clutch. 3 gold or silver bangle bracelets around your wrist holds your clutch so you can shop and cocktail as you please.

Ducks, Chickens and Dogs

2009-06-30T08:27:00.001-07:00

The nJoy family keeps growing with feathered friends. Here is Maggie and Dotty (we've had a few name changes). Through all of this, our 8 year old chocolate lab has decided she's switching to the chicken team. She follows them around with her nose to the ground, lays with them and sometimes even hangs out in the coop with them.

Vacation

2009-06-22T15:27:00.000-07:00

Hindering Manufacturing

2009-05-26T12:52:00.001-07:00

Really Junebug? Where am I suppose to sit to get my work done? I didn't have my camera or phone on me. The little Mac camera on the laptop HAD TO capture this...

Mini Vacation

2009-05-20T09:24:00.000-07:00

I got a surprise invite to hang at Cannon Beach overnight Monday. Of course I accepted. Here is Liz on our deck looking at The Goonies rock. A little piece of Hollywood off the Oregon Coast. The rock and Liz.

Puppy Pack

2009-05-13T13:47:00.001-07:00

It took me all day but my mom really wanted a pack to carry her new puppy Axl Rose in (and she doesn't even like GnR) for Mother's day, so I obliged. It's a Large Tote with some extra bells and dog whistles.

On the weekends...

2009-05-11T11:47:00.000-07:00

This is where you can find me on the weekend. In the garden and running up and down the stairs to keep in contact with all my loyal fans! Twitter and Facebook are a full time job. Seriously.

Thank you note

2009-05-08T11:14:00.000-07:00

A few weeks ago I sent a Medium Tote in Keepsake to Heather Armstrong, a.k.a. Dooce.com

This is the letter I put with the bag. I was a little scared trying to put together a letter to send to her. She's an amazing writer. This is what I came up with.

"Dear Heather,

Although I'd like to try to write a funny, entertaining letter to you about how great my bags are, and how they withstand puke and poop like a champ, I cannot compete with your wit. You behold the wittiest wit that ever was. If you couldn't tell, I'm a huge fan.

That being said, nJoy your bag, I hand make them out of my house in Portland, Oregon. I hope it provides many hours of carrying around baggage for you.

Amy

P.S. Come back to Portland soon and enjoy our extra huge bathroom stalls. We all tend to pack on weight here during the rainy season/all year. The city complies with extra space to swing our fat asses around while pissing. It's a great place to live."

You'll have to reference her site about he bathroom stalls comment. She was recently at PDX...

She sent me a very sweet thank you letter. Here it is...

"Amy,

Thank you so much for sending over one of your bags. It's totally adorable. Love the black and white design. Can't wait to use it. Much love from Utah - Heather B. Armstrong"

Wahoo! Well, you're very welcome!

Make Up Bags

2009-05-06T16:29:00.000-07:00

The newest addition to the family of bags, The Cosmetic Bag. Fully lined with gingham oilcloth, it's adorable! It's perfect for all those pesky jars that tend to open up with magic hands when your on the bus without any napkins to clean up. (Do I speak from experience or what?)

Currently they are on Etsy so find them there!
