I’ve been going to Create & Cultivate events since 2018. Over the years I’ve met so many business owners, mentors, and brand partners there, plus people I’ve gone on to work with for years. So when our client Tonita was looking to activate, the Create & Cultivate festival was a no-brainer.
As a digital product, it can be hard to be memorable next to all the brands handing out free tangible products. So we got to brainstorming, and a tote bag just made sense. Tonita helps with shopping, and everyone collecting goodies all day needed something to put them in.
Our junior designer kiara hand-drew the illustrations for the tote bags and stickers, and they were a huge success. We kept spotting our hand-drawn totes out in the wild all over the festival, and it never got old.
Thank you to Canary Marketing | Merchandise Design Agency for taking our design and bringing it to life, because man, did people pack stuff into these bags, and they held up. 🛍️
And a huge thank you to Marina Middleton , Grace Rigdon-Beckman , and Jaclyn Johnson for this incredible experience. We can’t wait to be back!
Did you snag one of our totes at Create & Cultivate? Tag us in your photos. We’d love to see where they ended up!
