The personalised tote bag gift set exists because a tote on its own is a bag and a tote with a notebook and a pen inside is a present. It arrives ready to give, which is why it is the set teachers, students and bridesmaids receive most often. This is what is in the box, who it suits and what to put on the canvas.
What is included
- One personalised canvas tote bag with your name, initials, quote, logo or simple design on the front, and a front zip pocket.
- One mini notebook, 44 pages.
- One black marker pen.
No extra wrapping needed; the set is the gift.
The zip pocket
Most totes are a single open sack, which is why keys live at the bottom. The front zip pocket holds keys, a card, a pen, a phone or a lip balm where they can be reached without emptying the bag. It is the detail that turns the tote from a shopper into an everyday bag: to lectures, to school, to work, to the gym, with the notebook and pen already in the pocket.
Who buys it
- Back to school and university: a named tote for the first day, with the notebook for the first lecture.
- Teachers, at the end of term or Christmas: the class gift, with the teacher's name and the year on the canvas.
- Bridesmaids and hen weekends: one per person, names on the front, for the train.
- Colleagues and work events: a logo on the canvas and a name underneath, as onboarding or a leaving gift.
- Stationery people, who know who they are.
What to print
A first name in Script is the most-ordered. Then: initials; "Miss Patel · Year 3"; a short quote ("Books, coffee, repeat"); a small logo; "Team bride". Short prints large on canvas; a paragraph prints small. Dark colours on natural canvas read best; the text colour guide explains why, and what to write on a personalised tote bag has the long list.
Washing
Hand wash the tote gently in cool water and air dry flat; no bleach, no tumble dryer, no scrubbing over the print. Iron on the reverse if needed. Canvas softens with washing.
Ordering for a group
Add one set per person with its own name; there is no minimum. Everything is printed to order in Cheshire, usually dispatched within one to three working days, with free UK delivery; for a class set of thirty with a last-day-of-term date, email support@larencraft.com first. Because the canvas carries the name you type, it cannot be returned for a spelling change; check the spelling on the class list. The larger sibling for a market shop is the jute market bag, and more sets are in teacher gifts.
