DESIGN: If you're a fan of Jenny Kee, Linda Jackson, Step into Paradise or all of the above, this is one tote bag you don't want to miss out on! The bags utilise remnant fabrics from the curtains of the incredible exhibition, and were part of an Earn and Learn in which women from refugee and new migrant communities learned how to sew nylon tote bags and got paid while doing it! This tote is BIG, perfect for carrying groceries, work or the gym - each features one of our woven tags marking the beautiful collaboration with Jenny Kee & Linda Jackson.
FABRIC: Nylon (donated by one of our fashion industry partners working to avoid textile waste).
PRINT: The tote bag features artwork from both Jenny Kee and Linda Jackson that was present in the Step into Paradise exhibition. Due to the scale of the print, the bag prints are varied and are a lucky dip.
Each bag measures 49cm x 81.5cm and the shoulder straps are approximately 23cm long. The tote bag is BIG, perfect for carrying groceries, going to the beach or to the gym. Each features one of our woven tags marking the beautiful collaboration with Jenny Kee & Linda Jackson.
