Hotel bags/ bathroom baskets

Where did you buy your hotel bags and bathroom basket? I have some time on my hands, though not much, and would like to get these things done. I would prefer a store in Manhattan or Queens, but can do Nassau County if I have to. I don't have a car, so traveling in Long Island is a bit difficult. Also, I am willing to buy off the Internet. Thanks for your help!

For the bathroom, I stained and stenciled a small drawer set I had at home. I put stuff from the 'travel' section of the drugstore

the bags we got at Micheals - we wanted a specific color and that was the only place I saw them. They're just plain navy blue

Re: Hotel bags/ bathroom baskets

be careful with doing boxes for the hotel bags because it'll be hard for the guests to take 'em back (unless you want 'em to throw them away

)

im still having trouble finding mine ..

Re: Hotel bags/ bathroom baskets

Can I tell you guys that I have no idea what you're talking about? What is a hotel bag? I think my hall (John Anthony's) provides the bathroom basket already......

A lot of the time the florist will do the basket for the bathroom as long as you get the stuff for it.That is what my florist is doing for us.
The bags I have no idea yet, probably, bottled wtaer, cookies, chips, some chocolates, map of the area, list of restaurants, and a welcome letter.
