Using this tote is easy! Just put your daily items like your phone, wallet, keys, and makeup inside. You can take it when you go shopping at the mall or running quick errands around town. Since it's a great gift bag, you can fill it with presents for special occasions. When it comes to maintenance, you can spot - clean it with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Just make sure to let it dry completely before using it again. Remember, these totes are made to order, so it'll take 7 - 10 business days to process your order. Don't overload the tote as it may put stress on the handles and the canvas material.
