Save Your Purses!!

You spend good money on your purses and bags. The last thing you need is to accidentally put it down in a sticky mess. Wrapurse™ solves the problem. An on-the-go, quick on, quick off, lightweight wrap for any size purse: Wrapurse covers small purses to diaper bags. 

According to statistics at Statista.com, in 2013, women in the US spent 8.7 Billion Dollars on handbags.  Many women resell their designer handbags and get a lot of money for them.  They could get even more if the the handbag looks new. 

The Story

I’m a single mom of two very active and athletic boys.  I’ve sat on bleachers, benches and fields cheering on my kids’ teams.  Many times I’ve had to go to games with my purse.  I won’t leave it in the car, but who wants to hold it in their lap the entire time?  So….. I eventually had to put it down.  Yuck!  

After ruining several expensive bags with mud, rust and unknown sticky gooey stuff stuck to the bottom (not to mention all the gross germs), I thought what can I do to protect the bottom of my favorite bags?  The solution is Wrapurse. 

Germs. Grime.  Rust.  Goo.  Things we all want to keep off the bottom of our purses and diaper bags. We all want to carry a purse that is clean and looks new, after all it's a fashion statement. 

And, I don't want to bring germs into my home.  Moms with diaper bags - you know what I'm talking about!  You go to change your baby at a public venue and 9 times out of 10 there is nowhere to put your diaper bag down except directly on a disgusting restroom floor!  Then you bring the bag home and put it on your  floor where your baby is crawling.  

Where do you put your purse down?  Doctors' office floors, shopping carts, bathrooms with no hooks, movie theaters, the list goes on and on.  Women put their purses down every day and the bottom of their bags do not just contain germs but are also getting ruined and detract from the look of the bag.

  • ReusableJust hand-wipe and your Wrapurse is ready to use again and again.
  • ProtectiveWrapurse keeps your purse good looking, clean, dry and germ-free.

Charity Begins at Home

I'm a single mom and one of the reasons I created Wrapurse was so that I could stay home with my kids.  I have a son with special needs who has struggled for years.  Fortunately, he is doing much better now, but educationally, we still have a long road ahead ahead of us.  But then, I recently stumbled upon an organization called Understood.org.  

Understood.org is a comprehensive FREE online resource created by 15 nonprofits that care deeply about kids with learning and attention issues. Understood empowers parents through personalized support, interactive tools, daily access to experts, a community of parents and more, so their children can go from simply coping to truly thriving in school and in life.

This hit home with me - finally an online community I could use to help my son, Colton.  I wish I would have found it years ago!  It was at that point I decided to give back so that Understood could continue to help others.  I will be donating $1 for every bag sold in this campaign to Understood.org. 

At the end of the campaign, all the money collected for charity, will be given directly to the non-profit organization.

What I Need & What You Get 

With your help, I will be able to help establish a brand for Wrapurse as well as get them into major retailers. We have a strong following on Facebook but need to get the word out and the need established. It's a new product category, and it's taking more time and money to bring it to top of mind. 

If we surpass our funding, we could also offer additional color choices, patterns and sizes! Who knows?!

Challenges

The greatest challenge I face, and the main reason for doing this Indiegogo Campaign, is to raise awareness and bring my dream to life.  Having a child with special needs has kept me from working a mainstream job.  I developed this idea so I would be able to work from home and support my children.  

FAQ

  • When do I get my PERK?  Many campaigns make you wait months for your perk.  I will send your perk right after the campaign closes and your color choice is confirmed.  Sorry, but for obvious reasons custom perks will take a bit longer.  Those who back the project early in the campaign and indicate color preference and size will get their perk the fastest.
  • How do I choose a color and size?  The current three color choices and a size chart for the four sizes are pictured.  There are instructions on how to measure your purse.  The most common sizes are Medium or Large.
  • How do I add multiple PERKS? This can only be done one at a time. Therefore you add the first PERK go through all the steps of logging in and then go back to the campaigns main page select another PERK and check out again. You can do this as many times as necessary. 
  • How can I upgrade my PERK after I already purchased one? Find the answer here.
