There is only one of you... so why should your tote be any different?
Inspired by our best seller One of a Kind Backpack.....We would like to introduce to you our brand new One of a Kind Mini Tote!
Each of these recycled totes are one-of-a-kind! Made from fabric scraps and burlap (jute) pieces recycled from authentic rice bags. The imperfections you find help tell this incredibly human story between the fabrics, the seamstress who made it, the family who received the rice, and you. As you use this tote on your daily adventures, you will add to its incredible story. There will never be another tote just like it.
The totes shown here are examples similar to the totes you will receive, but because they are all totally unique, your bag's exact look will be a surprise. Pure excitement, and we promise that you'll love it!

RECYCLED = ECO-FRIENDLY
Handmade from used jute/burlap rice bags, these bags are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly. Our One of a Kind bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap. We keep discarded rice bags out of the landfills and give them new life! Buying this bag helps preserve the earth's resources! Good karma. Good vibes.
WHAT YOU ARE GIVING
Your purchase of this bag provides 1 kilo (2.2 lbs) of rice to a family in need in India. Indians typically eat rice three meals per day. 1 kilo will last the average family of four a little over 1 day (4 people x 3 meals = 12 meals total). We give away 25 kilos of rice at a time. 25 items = 25 kilos. This typically gives families about a month of rice! Buying this bag feeds families!
