How durable is the linen blend fabric, and how should I care for my "Courage Dear Heart" tote?

The Courage Dear Heart Tote Bagg is crafted from a soft yet durable blend of 55% linen and 45% bamboo/wood viscose, designed for everyday use. To keep it looking its best, we recommend spot cleaning or a gentle hand wash with cool water and mild detergent. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals to preserve the beautiful print and fabric integrity. The natural fibers offer a lovely softness and a relaxed, slouchy feel.

Will this tote bag comfortably fit my everyday essentials, like a laptop and notebook?

Absolutely! The "Courage Dear Heart" tote is generously sized at 47cm wide and 42cm high (without the strap), making it perfect for carrying your daily essentials. It's spacious enough to comfortably hold items like a laptop, notebooks, a water bottle, and more. Plus, it features a convenient interior pocket (17cm x 17cm) for smaller items like your phone, keys, or wallet.

What's the story behind the "Courage Dear Heart" design and the unique print?

The "Courage Dear Heart" tote is more than just a bag; it's a wearable reminder to embrace love, faith, and courage. The striking print is a beautiful fusion of historical artistry, featuring floral wreaths and fountains from Victorian lithographs and an 1878 drawing of the Sacred Heart of Mary. The phrase "Courage, Dear Heart" on the strap is inspired by C.S. Lewis, author of the Narnia Chronicles. It’s designed to encourage grace and celebrate your inner strength. This special piece comes from the cherished Canadian brand, Market of Stars.

Tote your daily essentials around town with this stunning Courage Dear heart tote bag! Made from a linen blend, these totes are soft and slouchy with wide straps that sit comfortably on your shoulder! Love, faith, and courage - this piece was designed as a reminder to keep all three close when the road feels long!

This unique print was created using archival artwork from the 1800’s, which includes floral wreaths & fountains from Victorian lithographs, and an 1878 hand-coloured drawing of the sacred heart of Mary. “Courage, Dear Heart”, repeated on the strap, was inspired by a quote from C.S. Lewis - the author of the Narnia Chronicles.

The result is a dramatic and rich print that we hope will encourage you to give yourself grace, celebrate your tenacious spirit, and always, always take heart.
