ABOUT THE DESIGN

The Anishinaabe people believe the thunderbird to be one of the highest spiritual beings. It protects us from the serpents that live deep within the ground and ensures life for all living things.

The thunderbird is part of our natural law that teaches us that all living things must be treated with respect and integrity so that we can all survive.
This sacred bird comes here in the spring from the west bringing thunderstorms and rain. Then they do the same in the fall before returning west before winter. 
This spiritual symbol represents power, protection, strength and survival.

Amazing

"I really love my tote bag, it's huge! I use it for everything."

— Amélie L. (5/5)

Tote Bag

"Only giving this 4 stars because there is no zipper! the bag is quite large and can fit alot of things - i had 2 books, laptop, accessories and it was fine to carry around. Due to the size, it would be better to have a zipper because some things did slip out when i was in the car. . . and from a safety perspective, zipper is just better. the design is stunning and looks good on."
