I recently learned the Ojibwe word for totem is doodem, and
love knowing that because my own totems grew out of doodling.
I looked at creating card sets of key totem images but couldn't find
an option that allowed a variety of images in one set. So I printed a few

Then I discovered how to create 3 x 4" photo magnets on Zazzle. I've had fun with these. Doesn't matter if
anyone buys them; I just like having them in a concrete form, and
ordered the ones I find appealing for myself. The colorful
ones work especially well.
Bear ("helps us find our path and journey") was my very first doodem:
