In my best efforts, I use reusable water bottles, though I tend to lose them around 6 months! So I’m due! What better way to rehydrate then with the summer photo personalized stainless steel water bottle.

Comes with a sealable lid and handle for easy grab-and-go. Pro tip: handwash only, do not microwave and intended for cold beverages.
