🍎 TOTE-ally September: Apples for the Teacher Tote

There’s something about September that will ALWAYS feel like back-to-school season to me.

After years of being a public school teacher, my internal calendar still seems to run on the school year. πŸ˜‚ New pencils, fresh notebooks, classroom bulletin boards…and that mixture of excitement and exhaustion that comes with getting another school year underway.

So it seems fitting to begin our second week of TOTE-ally September with my Apples for the Teacher Tote. 🍎✏️

This design combines apples and pencils into a practical 13″ x 11″ tote that’s perfect for a teacher to carry books, supplies, papersβ€”or, let’s be realistic, the approximately 47 miscellaneous things teachers somehow carry back and forth every day. πŸ˜‰

It also makes a meaningful handmade gift for a teacher who has made a difference in your life or the life of someone you love.
