SISTERS BRING RIVETING NEW SPARKLE TO DAILY WINTER WEAR

INTRODUCING…

MITT-MINDERS:  NEVER LOSE YOUR GLOVES AGAIN!

BEL AIR, MARYLAND --- mitt-minders are the original, charming fashion accessory for women that keeps winter gloves close at hand.   Created by two sisters who were tired of losing their winter gloves, mitt-minders are the clever innovation that allows you to clip your favorite gloves to your coat sleeve, and add a little bling to your ensemble!   This winter, you’ll never again ask, “Now where did I put my gloves?” 

5 Reasons to Gift mitt-minders This Holiday Season:

1.       They’re the perfect, unique gift for women of every age, from 5 to 105!

2.       She’ll be more organized and save time…And NEVER lose a glove!

3.       mitt-minders’ alluring design options will complement her coat and gloves …as well as her personality!

4.       mitt-minders’ sassy charms are the perfect adornment to the basic mitt-minder.

5.       Priced under $20, mitt-minders are a perfect fit for any budget, and easily fit into a small holiday stocking or gift bag…. Easy to mail too! 

      The creators of mitt-minders hoped to bring a childhood favorite into vogue for today’s women. 

On their journey, the sister-duo of designers were informed and inspired by “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” which annually spotlights host Oprah Winfrey’s favorite things.  Propelled by the goal of becoming a featured product favorite on that program, the sisters marked the course for their first entrepreneurial venture.

      “I hope women feel they can add some style to their winter coats, which can tend to be pretty dull!” explained one of the sisters who designed the prototype, from her home in New Jersey.       

       In less than a year, the product has grown from seedling idea to packaged retail product.  mitt-minders are made in the U.S.A., by the talented workers at The League for People With Disabilities, in Baltimore, Maryland.  They are sold in stores from St. Louis to Pittsburgh, and available online at www.mittminders.com.

     “mitt-minders will be a true time-saver this winter.  This year they’ll be clipped to my coat and ready to wear…  The colors and patterns are great!”  said retailer Aimee Smith,  owner of Five Wacky Women, in Cockeysville, Maryland, which carries the product.
