Our Eco Tote Bag Collection - Jellyfish Tote Bag
These eco tote bags have been specifically designed for everyday use and we encourage you to use them for everything, from grocery shopping to beach trips, to farmers markets and finally to travelling. Take your eco tote bag with you everywhere you go and never be in a plastic predicament ever again!
The inspiration behind our eco tote bags...
It’s no secret that the ocean, along with the rest of our planet is under threat. Plastic pollution and climate change are the two leading causes and both have been created by man. The initial idea and inspiration to create these eco tote bags came from our willingness to reduce the plastic consumption and pollution within our own community whilst supporting the restoration of our oceans through vital conservation work.
These Jellyfish Tote Bags came about due to the single use plastic bag ban that was implemented in July 2018 in Queensland, Australia and so we designed and created the bags before this environmental launch came about, so that we could provide a sustainable and ethical alternative to plastic bags.

Our eco tote bags - The story behind the art...
Back when we first launched Sophia. we were eager to do anything and everything we could to protect our planet, oceans and people (we feel even more strongly about this now) and so reached out to Ocean Crusaders – a Brisbane based charity whose mission it is to keep our oceans clean and educate the public on their impact and what they can do to help. We had already created the jellyfish design at this point and proposed a collaboration with sustainably and ethically crafted tote bags to raise important funds for the work they do. Ocean Crusaders jumped at the opportunity and we were so excited to bring these eco tote bags to life and to donate 50% of the profits to ocean conservation and beach clean ups.
Wondering how our eco tote bags are created?
To bring this eco tote bag to life, we first hand designed the jellyfish and included as many intricate details as possible to make the design unique and stand out. We used non-toxic pens on recycled paper to create the drawing and then scanned the design in so that we could start playing around with how it might look on our tote bags. With the design completed and Ocean Crusaders on board for the collaboration, we sent the ocean inspired design off to a local supplier and manufacturer in Rochedale, Queensland and they transformed our original drawing into beautiful, sustainable and ethical tote bags made from cotton! We opted for the bags to have longer handles so that they’re easier to carry and can hold even more fruit and vegetables.
Eco-friendly shipping & packaging - From Sophia. to you...
After receiving your order for your very own Jellyfish Tote Bag, we’ll carefully select one especially for you from inside our workshop. We then lay the design flat, tuck the handles in and neatly fold it a few times over before placing it inside an envelope made from 100% recycled materials. Because the tote bags are able to fold up to such a small size and are super lightweight, we’re able to use minimal packaging and this makes us extremely happy because minimal packaging means that less waste ends up in landfill! With your tote bag inside the envelope, we’ll then also place an extra little gift inside just for you, as well as an invitation to join The Sophia. Sisterhood of Sustainability. We’ve created the Sisterhood community as a way of bringing women from all around the world together and inspiring them to lead their own sustainable and ethical lifestyle. It’s free to join this community and by being a member, you’ll have the opportunity to enter eco competitions, gain inspiration and share advice of your own. Once your order is ready to ship, we then use Sendle – Australia’s first carbon neutral shipping company to deliver it directly to your door and then get to work removing 100 pieces of rubbish from the environment on your behalf.
