Weekend Goals Tote | XL Custom Hand Painted Tote Bag

10% of proceeds from the 1/10 drop will be donated to Pasadena Humane. If you've been hoping to get a bag, this is your chance to commission custom art and do a little good all at once <3

This link is for purchasing an XL (zip top) tote bag with 4-6 paintings. You can browse pet portrait totes and other custom art here!

Take a classic New England-y nautical canvas tote and add hand painted portraits of your favorite things. Now swap out the tired old monogram for complimentary hand scripted embroidery done with a reproduction vintage chainstitch machine. BOOM!  You have a Maker / Scholar tote bag and you're ready to start getting all the compliments. 

How it works: 

• Purchase your bag!  At checkout, make sure to opt in to receiving emails
• After checkout, you'll receive an email from me (becca@makerscholarcards.com) to get more information on your vision for your bag. You'll be able to choose:
  • Up to 6 items / icons for me to paint 
  • The location of each painting
  • The text and color for the chainstitch embroidery at the top of the bag
  • Note: Unlike the pet portrait totes, you will NOT be able to choose your strap colors. All XL tote bags have canvas colored straps
• 3-4 weeks later, your bag will be ready to ship! You'll receive an email when your art is complete.

PLEASE NOTE: This listing is specifically for bags painted with 4-6 items / icons. Things like favorite foods, drinks, cocktails, and even a pet or two are perfect for painting on these bags. If you have a vision for something with more art or bigger / more detailed subject matter (houses, landscapes, lighthouses, etc) please reach out to me at becca@makerscholarcards.com to get a custom quote!

Because of the work that goes into each bag and the custom nature of each order, refunds / returns are not possible. Please make sure you have taken a look at example bags that I've painted to make yourself familiar with my style of painting. By purchasing one of these bags, you are giving me artistic license to make you a custom piece of art as described above.
