A tote collab celebrating Melbourne

With Finders Keepers Melbourne market just around the corner, I can finally share this new tote bag collab with fellow creative and friend Suki McMaster. Suki and I first met when I was walking Life InStyle, a trade show many years ago. I plucked up some courage to approach her (although we had chatted via Instagram) and introduce myself. We clicked straight away and she’s been a wealth of knowledge and inspiration as I navigate being a creative who wants to make a business out of my work.

Florals, hand lettering, a tram and of course Suki’s dog Daisy and my cat Jaffa feature of this tote bag print.

Fast forward a few years later and Suki and I not only have a ‘buddy’ stall at Finders Keepers market (we’ll be right next to each other and displaying our work together), we also have collaborated on this cute tote bag. Featuring Suki’s cute illustrations and my florals and hand lettering, this one has been especially created for our love of our hometown Melbourne.

To get your hands on this tote bag, that’s been printed on both sides, make sure you come visit Finders Keepers this Friday July 7 to Sunday July 9. They're also available to pre-order via Suki’s website and will be made available after the market. AND if you’d like to get your hands on a FREE tote bag, we’ve got 10 to giveaway via Peppermint Magazine. See the Instagram post to enter, it’s easy-peasy and winners are drawn Wednesday 5 July.
