Postage Butterfly Tote Bag
Project type
Hand-Sewn
Date
January 2026
Location
Tucson, AZ
This hand-sewn postage butterfly tote blends vintage ephemera with nature-inspired design in a soft, functional form. Crafted from printed fabric featuring butterflies, fern fronds, and old-world postal markings, the tote evokes a sense of correspondence, travel, and quiet discovery.
The bag is carefully sewn by hand, giving it subtle variations that make every piece unique. The sturdy green handles provide comfortable carry, while the generous body offers space for books, art supplies, market finds, or everyday essentials. The muted palette and layered imagery create a timeless look that feels both nostalgic and grounded in nature.
