I considered purchasing one, however, ended up choosing the Mai Tai for my B as I preferred the pockets inside the insert. The only thing I wasn't too keen on was the funky aroma from the Mai Tai insert, hopefully it will fade in time as it is still fairly new.
I don't recognise it as being Lavender (which I usually like and have quite a few L'Occitane items) albeit I would prefer no aroma for an insert going into my B as I don't want the insert to scent it. It is hard to describe what the aroma is, something synthetic rather than natural I think and not something I'm particularly keen on, really hoping it fades away in time.
Hi... How was your insert ordered from divide and decor. Seems like the inserts are made from very nice materials. I have used D&C and MT previously. Appreciate some inputs from you. Thanks quellefromage!!
Design and Decor? My photos are in post #1491. I haven't let their K28 insert sit in my bag for very long as it seems like a tight fit and I don't want press marks on the interior. At some point I will put the insert back in and leave for a while to see if it makes any marks.
I prefer a soft insert that I don't have to "jam" into a bag, but I know some love the tight fit and structure.
I will say the insert is very pretty, less utilitarian looking than D&C.
I would order again from D&D but I would ask for a softer, slightly smaller K28 insert rather than ordering the K28 insert "off the shelf".
For non-US customers who can't order from D&C, I'd ordered a Custom insert from 47thHeaven on Etsy for my Toolbox 26. It's a firm insert to prop up the structure of toolbox but I believe she has soft sides insert for a bit extra cost.
Dimension 9.5" L x 6.5" W x 5" H.
Note: The height can probably be reduced by 0.5" to 4.5" for those that want the insert to just reach the side sewing indent.
It fits snug but not tight against the bag as I don't want it to push out against the leather. Looks very well made - very pleased and Mama Shari (owner) is easy to deal with.

I ordered from a China website from Taobao for the insert and it fits the toolbox26 nicely. The seller also carries different insert styles and sizes, have also bought a separate one for Kelly. The material and workmanship is reasonable. This can be an alternative for everyone to consider.

Ordered a D&C insert for my etain K35 GHW and it fit perfectly, very happy with it. Am planning on replacing all of my inserts with D&C. 
This is gorgeous! I love the way you matched the purple (is this Iris?) to where the insert meets the bag lining, but did the pockets in a contrasting fabric so they are easier and quicker to access. Brilliant idea.
I am looking for an insert for a Garden Party 30 in B&W toile canvas with black leather trim. After seeing your design, I am going to go with a black for the exterior of the insert, which will match the interior of the bag, and then choose another color for the pockets. Now, I just have to decide what color to use for the accent.
Would you kindly share how you went about specifying the details for 47th Heaven? Did you give her the exact interior measurements of your toolbox,or did you subtract a little so it wouldn't press too snugly against the interior of your bag?
I'd love to see an overhead photo of your bag once you've packed it with your essentials, if you have time to share. Congratulations on such a beautiful custom solution.
Thank you stillfabulous! Yes color is Iris. I measured the interior and subtract 0.5" from the length and width (eg. real interior measurement of bag is 10 x 7") and requested a quote based on that. I had to make sure my measurements are correct. It fits just right
You can do either way, provide the specific insert measurement or give Mama Shari the interior bag measurement and she'll suggest a better fit which might be 1" allowance so it's not too tight.
Can't provide the stuffed interior pic at the moment as I'm out of town but it can hold a lot. I would suggest for the interior pockets you might want to specify how many or how wide for the pockets you want. I didn't specify anything other than color and would have liked one larger pocket for one of the sides so that I can put larger items. There's 8 pockets altogether and if you don't specify, the pocket widths are exactly 1/2 way point on each side of the insert.
Your black color interior choice sounds wonderful. I see that 47th Heaven has some patterned fabric which might be a good option for the interior of a fun garden party.
Thank you for posting this photo. Surprisingly, there aren't many photos that show an overhead view of GP inserts. Yours looks like a nice match for the lining of your Garden Party. Do you know what Connie calls this color you ordered?
In your photo, it looks like the sides of the insert behave nicely when your GP is snapped. Did you ask for the flexible side panels or did the regular panels have enough bend in them?
Last question: Did you order one of D&C's standard sizes, or did you ask her for custom measurements for your insert? What size is your GP?
Many thanks for your assistance
Does anyone know of a soft insert that fits the JPG (original style without pockets)? I love the look of the maitai, and sent the company an email a few days back to them asking if they make an insert that would fit, but no answer back yet.
