ARE YOU FIRED UP TEACHERS?!? I KNOW I AM!!! 🙂
This giveaway is for all school personnel: teachers, counselors, principals, diagnosticians, speech therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapists, teachers aids, nurses, secretaries, EVERYBODY!
My post just says “teacher” to make it easier!.
WE BASICALLY WANT TO JUST SAY A HUGE THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO TAKES CARE OF OUR KIDDOS DURING THE DAY! IT TAKES A SPECIAL PERSON TO BE IN EDUCATION, AND WE KNOW IT’S NOT THE “8:00-3:00 JOB” THAT SOME PEOPLE THINK. WE KNOW YOU ARE UP LATE WRITING LESSON PLANS, GRADING PAPERS, DOING PROGRESS REPORTS, WRITING IEPS, ETC…….
WE ALSO KNOW THAT HOW YOU TREAT AND TEACH OUR KIDS HAS A LARGE IMPACt ON WHO THEY BECOME AS PEOPLE.
SO THANK YOU!!!!! WE APPRECIATE YOU!!!!!!
Here are the details:
Barrington Bags is going to give away one of their bags (either the Nantucket tote or the St. Anne tote) to a teacher!
And
get this….they aren’t just going to give that teacher a bag. That
teacher gets to keep a bag for herself AND give away 4 additional bags
to her teacher friends!
That’s 5 bags total.
STOP! IT!
Both Shay and I will be posting the above graphic on facebook, instagram, and Pinterest today. When you see it, tag the 4 friends on facebook and instagram that you are entering into the contest, and pin the image on Pinterest for additional entries.
Then come back here and enter the Rafflecopter at the bottom of this post!
Or just in case you can’t stand it and end up ordering one for yourself!
AND….if you use the code BACKTOSCHOOL,
you can have FREE SHIPPING for the next 48 hours!
WooHoo!
(You don’t have to work in a school to use the code. Anybody can use it!)
THE NANTUCKET TOTE
Here I am with my Nantucket tote (in grey chevron) that Barrington sent me last year.
Click HERE for the Nantucket.
It has two side compartments (perfect for water bottles) and 1 zipper pocket.
It is a great size for teachers to haul binders, folders, and papers that need to be graded
to and from school.
It’s also perfect for a carry-on. In addition to all I have in the bag below, it would also fit magazines, snacks, and a denim jacket, a cardigan, or even a blardigan! 😉
Click HERE for The Nantucket.
THE St. ANNE TOTE
This one is grey ikat, and I ADORE it.
This is more of an everyday bag than the Nantucket. Although it is large and can hold lots of things, it doesn’t have as much structure as the Nantucket.
This can totally be used as a teacher bag and can haul lots of stuff to and from school, but it can also be used as just an everyday bag. I have several friends that carry their Barrington bags as their purses and they love it!
Earrings c/o Kendra Scott HERE (turquoise studs from color bar)
Necklace SOLD OUT c/o Jewelry Nut Auctions
Even though this necklace is sold out, remember 2 of my new favs are from there:
Pink Quartz necklace c/o Accessory Concierge HERE / Cushion Cut bracelet c/o Accessory Concierge HERE
MK watch c/o Piperlime HERE (for $160!!!!) and at Nordstrom HERE (for $195)
army green shorts, GAP (sold out)
nude patent flats HERE
elbow patch sweater HERE
The black is sold out, but lots of other solid colors and some striped ones are still available. These sweaters are only $38 and they have fantastic reviews!
I LOVE the green striped and the grey striped options!
It has a leather bottom.
Here’s what the site has to say about the bag:
And it’s not just the Nantucket and the St. Anne that Barrington has (although those are your choices if you happen to win the contest!), they have an entire line of bags.
With Barrington Bags, you get to pick the style, the color, and the pattern!
The bags range in size from larger luggage type duffel bags all the way down to small stadium bags.
Speaking of stadium bags, if you need a stadium bag (it’s size follows all of those pesky new rule requirements for stadiums) or any other bag for football season you can customize the bags with your school colors HERE! SO FUN!
And girls, if you have never played around on their website, you need to give yourself a couple of minutes to do so. You will have a blast! Just look at all of the bloggers that had fun designing their own customized Barrington Bags! Can you spot me in the collage?
Just click HERE and star playing around with designing your own bag!
Anyway….
AND REMEMBER….if you use the code BACKTOSCHOOL,
you can have FREE SHIPPING for the next 48 hours!
WooHoo!

You just have to turn on the news to see what a challenging beginning of the school year it has been here in Saint Louis, Missouri.

Am trying to order but code BACKTOSCHOOL is not working. Love all their totes – I already own one and the quality is great!
Sheaffer says
Oh No! I just texted and e-mailed my contact! Hopefully it will be fixed soon!!! Check back later, and I'm so sorry for the trouble!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂
The Wife says
No trouble! I tried later and it worked fine. Thanks for all your hard work!
Wendy says
Just to let you know, the NFL only allows clear plastic bags that can't be larger than a 12" X 6" X 12". This went into effect last year. The only non-clear bag stadiums allow is something that is no bigger than your hand. Totally stinks.
Erica says
I follow your Pinterest board but don't see the giveaway to pin. Is it up yet?
Sheaffer says
Hi Erica! It is up! But you can also just hover over the picture on the blog and click the Pinterest "P" to pin it yourself!!!!
xoxo,
Sheaffer 🙂

Who I would share with….
1) my college bestie who is completing her 2nd year of teaching after working in school for 12 years and going back to school to finish her degree + alternative certification.
2) my bestie who is like a sister to me…her sister was another bestie and was killed in 2006 car accident, she is a speech therapist with a daughter also starting kinder this year and a reader of both blogs & has several of the "must have" items!
3) my school bestie – the best gift of last year, a sweet friend at work as I transitioned from Corporate life into teaching. She's also a reader of both blogs and has several "must have" items – we often start our day in rotunda talking about the mornings posts/instagrams and items shown!
4) a sweet teacher friend who I've known for years – she always calls her students her "friends", she loves them so well, loves the world like Jesus does, is selfless and giving of her time and talents.
Jessica Shrock says
I would love to bless a teacher at my kids school, one being my own sister! Great give-away
