Happy Anniversary Caboodle!

Caboodles has a milestone anniversary to celebrate this year! 25 years as a household name! When I was a little girl I LOVED my Caboodle. I often, just for fun, refer to my giant professional kit as my Caboodle. If you giggle, that means you are cool enough to have grown up with one. Yep, its a test.

This giveaway is so big, there will be 25 winners! Each winner will get a prize pack of goodies, and these Caboodles will not be empty!

    1. OMG, I know Abbi! I had this awesome sparkly pink/purple one. I still have this one that I loved. It was like my grown up caboodle, it was (what am I saying!), is teal and it has the fancy padded lining. Ah, so chic!

    2. Teal has somehow become my favorite color as an adult especially if it sparkles so I must admit I'm jealous :)

  5. Oh Caboodle! Who didn't have one!?!? Mine was pink and turquoise (had to be able to tell the difference between Pam's) and it came in my Easter basket. Other than a Barbie hauler, we carried it with us on vacations to visit family for the summer. :)

    1. Did you keep your Barbie in your too? One day my husbands friend was at our house and he commented that my professional kit case was the biggest Caboodle he had ever seen. I asked him how he knew about Caboodles and he informed me that he has a sister (I knew that) and that all the girls brought them to summer camp. Ha, loved that.

    2. Of course! But when we got older, it became more about hauling stuff around to camps and vacations. You can put alot of stuff in a Caboodle!

  7. Caboodles really are the best. I had a pink & purple one too. Thought I can't remember what I put in it. I know I was far too young for makeup when I actually got it. I wish I still had it. I do still have a much, much smaller one that is all blue & sparkly...pretty amazing. :)

    1. It seems like everyone had a pink and purple one! That must have been all the rage! Im pretty sure we were all too young for makeup but didn't it make you feel like a big girl? I was much more organized then, when I had my Caboodle collection.

  8. I had pink and purple too, and I think I carried my stamp collection in it. Stickers. I remember putting stickers all over that thing.

  9. Oh wow. I LOVED me some caboodles. I carried that thing everywhere! Mine was pink and since I was too young to be *allowed* to wear makeup, I filled mine up with my grandmothers old makeup (I can still smell it...like a mixture of Chanel No. 5, Cigarettes, and Old People). Emerald green eyeshadows and bright pink blush, so when I actually wore it, I looked like a young Ru Paul. The glory days...

  11. I had a fabulous coboodles. It was pink on top and purple on the bottom. I covered it in stickers because I was really into them at the time. I mostly kept scrunches and nail polish in it. I remember that it was pretty much indestructible. Wish I knew what happened to it.

    1. Weren't we all obsessed with scunciis! And glitter and stckers and nail polish!

  12. I remember having sleepovers as a middle schooler that we legit referred to as Caboodle Parties. We'd all show up with our pink and purple caboodles, covered in stickers of course, and filled with our Bon Bon nail polishes, wet and wild lipsticks, and more glitter than a truck full of strippers. We'd give each other makeovers, break at least 150 rules of good hygiene, inflict some 2nd degree curling iron burns, and then dare each other to call boys or prank people with three-way calling. It's a wonder we ever made it out alive ...

  13. I introduced my daughter to her first Caboodle when she was 3 to carry her hair pretties and lip glosses in. It was a cute pink and purple one that looked like a tackle box. She is now 7 and has now evolved to the big silver one so she can fit her nail polishes and, hair pretties and lip glosses. Then she has a clear one that holds her crown :). Yesterday I found out that she never new that the box was called a Caboodle. I told her to grab that Black Caboodle and she looked at me like I had 3 heads and was speaking a foreign language. All of these years we have always called the Caboodles the "Girl Boxes"

  15. I remember getting my first caboodle, I was about 8. It was big and pink! It was such a big deal when I finally got it! I used it to carry all sorts of lip glosses and play makeup, and of course, my scrunchies. I thought it was the coolest thing ever!

  17. Hi! I just discovered your blog through Fabzilla's blog and I love the hair advice and tips! So glad to find you! I still use Caboodle's! My initial one was all dark blue with a metal clasp and had every kind of band-aid on you could think of as well as every color of eyeshadow and lots of Love Your Nails nail polish :) because that was "cool" then lol
