Mini Backpack
Handmade Waxed Canvas Mini Backpack
Hands free, head up, everything where it should be. This mini backpack is made for women who want to move through their day without compromise - compact enough to feel light, roomy enough to carry everything that matters, and distinctive enough to turn heads.
Why You'll Love It
Hands-free freedom that lasts all day - adjustable webbing straps sit comfortably whether you're walking the dog, navigating a city, or heading off for the weekend
Roomy enough to surprise you - fits a purse, water bottle, glasses, book, snacks, and more, all without the bulk
Water-resistant from the start, more beautiful over time - the waxed canvas outer shrugs off light showers and develops a rich natural patina with wear, so it gets better the more you use it
A print you won't find anywhere else - each bag is made from a limited-edition fabric; once this design sells, it won't be remade
Lined with reclaimed fabric - soft repurposed textiles give forgotten materials a new life and make every bag completely one of a kind inside and out
Built to last, not just to look good - reinforced seams and considered construction mean this backpack earns its place for years, not seasons
What's Included
One handmade waxed canvas mini backpack
Size: H 30 cm × W 23 cm × D 8 cm
Only one of this design available - when it's gone, it won't return
Care: spot-clean only to preserve the waxed canvas finish
Dispatched the next working day if ordered before 5pm
Arrives via Royal Mail Tracked - you'll receive updates from postage to doorstep
🎁 Makes a brilliant gift - ideal for birthdays, Christmas, a new mum, or any woman who deserves something beautiful and genuinely useful. A gift card message can be added at checkout.
💡 Want it made in your own colours and fabrics? Get in touch with Claire and she'll create something just for you.
FAQs
How much does it hold? More than you'd expect from a mini. At H 30 cm × W 23 cm × D 8 cm it comfortably fits daily essentials - purse, phone, water bottle, glasses, a book, and snacks. The large outer slip pocket keeps quick-access items to hand, and the inner zipped pocket keeps valuables safe.
Is it waterproof? The waxed canvas outer is water-resistant, handling light showers and everyday splashes well. It's not designed for heavy rain or full submersion. Spot-cleaning preserves the waxed finish and keeps it looking its best.
What is waxed canvas and does it need maintenance? Waxed canvas is a traditional, durable fabric treated with wax for water resistance. Over time it develops a natural patina - slight creasing and lightening in well-used areas - which is completely normal and gives each bag its own character. If the finish dulls over time, it can be re-waxed at home with canvas wax.
Is this really one of a kind? Yes, and more so than most. Only one bag is made per print - once this design sells, it won't be remade. The reclaimed lining fabric is also unique, so no two bags are ever the same inside or out.
Can I have one made in my own choice of fabrics? Yes - send Claire a message and she'll work with you to create a mini backpack in the colours and fabrics that feel most like you.
How long will delivery take? Orders placed before 5pm are dispatched the next working day via Royal Mail Tracked 48 (2–3 days) or Tracked 24 (next day). Free standard delivery on orders over £120; £4.95 otherwise.
Can I return it if it's not right? Yes - free UK returns, subject to our Returns Policy. To start a return, get in touch via the website.
