Mini Tipi was founded by Mélanie Bernad and Trisha Pitura in 2016 with an aim to address the lack of authentic Indigenous designs in the textile industry.
As Creative Director, Trisha (a member of Nipissing First Nation) prioritizes connection through design and fabric as a way of storytelling. Mini Tipi works with Indigenous artists who use art as a way to share knowledge and experiences, with a connection to their culture. As an ally, Mel (Direct of Sales and Marketing) is invested in reconciliation & fostering a diverse and celebratory community within Mini Tipi.
Mini Tipi today is a beloved brand. Their products are all designed, cut and sewn in Canada.

The Aurora Borealis or the Northern Lights, are such a natural beauty. They
are very unique to Canada in the Northern Hemisphere where at night you
can see the vibrant colors dance.
First Nations people have teachings and practices that symbolize the
Northern Lights and can vary from Nation. One teaching being that the
Northern Lights are spirits of the ancestors celebrating life, reminding us
that we are all part of creation. Their dancing forms a pathway for the souls
as they travel to the next world.
Elements and energy, science and spirituality; they all fill the sky.

The Anishinaabe people believe the thunderbird to be one of the highest spiritual beings. It protects us from the serpents that live deep within the ground and ensures life for all living things. The thunderbird is part of our natural law that teaches us that all living things must be treated with respect and integrity so that we can all survive. This sacred bird comes here in the spring from the west bringing thunderstorms and rain. Then they do the same in the fall before returning west before winter.
This spiritual symbol represents power, protection, strength and survival.
