Hip & Handmade in Indy @ Enroute Spa

Starting November 7th and continuing through the holidays, Meg James Design will have a collection of purses for sale at Enroute Spa, an environmentally friendly, holistic health-based day spa located in the new Indianapolis Airport. (Who knew there was a spa at the airport??)

I met the super energetic and fun owner of the spa, Erin, at the Red Event where I had a booth. She shared with me her big cool idea to start "Hip and Handmade in Indy" at her spa where local designers and their creations, like bags and jewelry, would be featured. Her idea was sparked by her mission to keep spa operations as green as possible. For example: They don't buy soap from a big soap company; they get it from a local person who makes soap which helps reduce their carbon footprint by not utilizing transportation that would carry the soap long distances to reach the spa. Featuring local artisans in her shop will follow this same principle, and it will also give travelers a unique perspective of the flavor of our city as they pass through the airport.

Next time you are there, check it out in Concourse B :) Below are a couple of new items that will be included in the collection.
