An eco-friendly jute tote for the earth minded individual. The Eco Friendly Beach Jute Tote Handbag is spacious and ultra-cool, the bag you reach for at the beach and then keep using as a shopping bag. It makes an elegant gift for your bridal party or for guests attending your beach or destination wedding.
This bio-degradable bag is made from natural jute fibers and has dual cotton wrapped handles that fit comfortably over the shoulder. It features a 5-1/2" gusset and twin cotton side ties, and the bag is 17" wide and 14" tall, which is enough room for a towel, sunscreen, a paperback and a water bottle at once. For a unique touch, have a name, monogram or message embroidered on the jute bag: one line of up to 12 characters, stitched in-house by HansonEllis, personalizing gifts since 1999.
Six shoppers have reviewed the tote and the same picture keeps forming. One bride ordered a single bag in her own name first, in case they turned out ugly or cheap, and reported back that they are great, the handles very soft and sturdy, and the bag exactly as pictured. She adds one honest note worth repeating: this is a beach bag, so think of the material, not a thick canvas carryall. Another bride bought them for a November destination wedding and said the names came out beautifully; she watched her girls walking the resort with their personalized bags and has been asked ever since where she bought them. A second destination bride said her girls loved theirs and the group drew compliments at the resort. One shopper bought the tote for five friends' bridal showers, got rave reviews from every one of them, then received one at her own shower and called it big and roomy.
Whether you choose to get one for yourself or buy in bulk for your bridesmaids and female guests, this beach jute bag will be loved for its simplistic, yet environmentally friendly design. Type the name or monogram you want embroidered above and choose your quantity.

- A three-letter monogram for a maid of honor or for the bride's new married initials.
- A role instead of a name, such as Bridesmaid or Team Bride, when you are ordering a matching set.
- The destination and year, so the tote reads as a souvenir of the trip years later.
- A short phrase for a guest tote, such as Sandy Toes, that has nothing to do with the wedding at all.

Which one should I choose
The choice usually comes down to how much you want the bag to be used after the wedding day, and whether every bag should read differently.
| Eco Friendly Beach Jute Tote Handbag, embroidered with a name | Choose it when each bridesmaid or guest should have her own bag, named and impossible to mix up at the pool. |
|---|---|
| The same jute tote with no personalization | Choose it when you need a matching set of welcome bags fast and the names do not matter, and note that an unpersonalized bag is the returnable one. |
| A printed canvas or plastic tote | Choose it only if you want a stiffer, heavier bag; jute is the bio-degradable natural fiber option with a beach-bag feel. |
For a bridal party at the shore, the embroidered jute tote wins because it keeps working as a shopping bag long after the trip.
