			<h3>Container Store &ndash; Handbag Handler with Mirror</h3>

			Not to be Debbie Downer but do you know how many germs are on the floor of the restaurant or coffee house? Admit it - you put your prized handbag (whether you bought it at Target or Marc Jacobs doesn&rsquo;t matter) by your feet under the table all the time! And then the germs follow you home. That&rsquo;s why the Handbag Hanger is the perfect dinner guest. The hook slips easily over the edge of your table providing a secure, convenient way to store your handbag. And a small mirror allows you to discreetly reapply lipstick before leaving the table.
