Personalized Cotton Tote Bag*
This carry all tote bag features gussets on the sides to offer more storage.
Our Personalized Cotton Tote Bag is perfect for the busy gal on the go. Do not be slowed down by lugging all of your items in separate bags. This roomy tote is large enough to load lunch for a bunch, overnight clothes, or even groceries. It is built from sturdy cotton and features reinforced handles with heavy duty stitching, so this tote bag will outlast Supermom.
The bag opens to reveal a roomy center compartment with a trendy striped liner. Open the side snaps to create more room when the load grows, and snap the top closed to keep your items from falling out on the way. At 19 inches long and 14-1/2 inches high with 10 inch handles, it is a real carrying bag rather than a token one. Have the bag personalized in one of 16 thread colors to make it truly unique.
The embroidery is what turns it into a gift. The Cotton Tote Bag is a wonderful gift for all of the girls in your wedding party. Surprise them at the rehearsal dinner by giving each of them their very own tote stuffed with goodies they will love, each one embroidered in-house by HansonEllis with her own name.
Backpacks are boring and fall apart easily under the strain of all of those heavy textbooks. Now your student can carry everything he or she needs, including a laptop, with our Cotton Tote Bag. Notebooks, pens and every electronic gadget will fit neatly inside the protective cotton of this tote, and the sturdy handles mean no more backpack malfunctions halfway across campus.
Kids love getting the Cotton Tote Bag with their initials or name emblazoned on the front. Let them use it as an overnight bag for Grandma's, or have them fill it with special toys for family road trips. The Personalized Cotton Tote Bag can be used for daycare, school, camp or anywhere your child goes, and a name on the front means it comes home again.
Add your embroidery above, choose your quantity, and never be caught shorthanded again with our versatile Cotton Tote Bag.

Which one should I choose
Everything in a bridal party gift bag is small except the bag itself, so the question is whether the bag is the gift or the wrapper.
| Personalized Cotton Tote Bag | Choose it when the bag is the gift: a full-size embroidered tote that carries groceries, textbooks or an overnight change of clothes. |
|---|---|
| Silk Cosmetic Bags | Choose them when you want the small bag that lives inside the tote, for makeup and travel items rather than a full load. |
| Flip Flop Manicure Sets or Beach Lip Balm Favors | Choose these when you need the goodies that go inside the tote for each bridesmaid, not the bag itself. |
For a bridal party or a student, the embroidered cotton tote is the piece that gets used every week; the smaller favors are what you stuff inside it.

How is the tote personalized?
It is embroidered in-house by HansonEllis, so the name or initials are stitched into the cotton on the front rather than printed on it.

The bag can be personalized in one of 16 thread colors, so the embroidery can match a wedding palette or a school color.

Can I see a proof before the bags are embroidered?
Proofs are optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds extra days to production. Changes after a proof carry a $40 minimum updating fee, so check the spelling of every name before you order.
