Description
Who says accessories can’t be paw-sitively precious? ✨ Meet your new summer essential: a hand-crocheted tote featuring two squishy, smiling puppy faces—one gray with a red bow, one brown with a purple bow—snuggled on a sunny yellow patch, all framed by soft blue and dainty white floral patterns.
🌼 Why we’re obsessed:
- Pastel perfection: baby blue base, creamy yellow accent, and ivory twisted handle for that dreamy, cottagecore vibe
- Handmade with love: tiny crocheted details (those blushing puppy cheeks! 🥰) make it totally one-of-a-kind
- Practical cuteness: Sturdy enough for your daily essentials, sweet enough to turn heads at brunch
