Using your tote is easy! Just open it up and put in your daily essentials like your wallet, phone, keys, and maybe a book. It's great for carrying things around town, whether you're going shopping or running errands. Since it's made to order, please be patient as it takes 7 - 10 business days to process. When it comes to cleaning, spot - clean it with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Avoid putting it in the washing machine as the heavy cotton canvas might shrink or the design could get damaged. Keep it in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain its quality. And don't overfill it as it might stretch the handles or the bag itself.
