Finding the Right Custom Gift Bags Style for Your Brand
We offer a few customizable gift bag styles. Which one works best comes down to what you’re packing and how people will be carrying it around.
Rope and Ribbon Handle Paper Bags
Boutiques tend to pick rope or ribbon handles for premium gift bags. They’re soft on the fingers, and the bag looks more finished.
Euro-Tote Style Bags
A euro-tote is tall and wide, with a gusset at the sides. Boxed gifts fit in it easily, and bottles stay upright.
Kraft Gift Bags
The brown, natural look of kraft fits handmade, food and lifestyle brands. A one-color logo takes well to it. Packing food too? See our food and beverage packaging.
Small Treat and Goodie Bags
Small bags are for favors, samples and goodies. They’re light and easy to hand out.
If a box suits the gift better than a bag, see our folding carton boxes.
Choosing Custom Gift Bags Size
Measure the product. Don’t guess the bag size. A gift with a little room looks right, and one that’s squashed looks cheap.
Measure the Product First
Take a tape measure to the product and write down its width, height and depth. If you plan to use tissue paper, add some room for it. Also leave a gap above the product. The handle needs to clear it.
Custom Gift Bags Printed with Your Logo
A lot of brands do just fine with one color. A single-color logo on kraft looks clean, and it suits a giveaway. Your brand might use several colors or a photo. Then full color is worth it. For a boutique bag, foil makes the logo catch the light.
Offset, digital, UV and screen printing are all options for customized gift bags with logo. The best one depends on your quantity and artwork. Need an exact brand color? Ask about Pantone matching. Don’t put the logo near the bottom fold or the handle holes. A vector file is the one to send for gift bag printing, if you have it. Centered on the front is the safe place for a logo.
Personalized Paper Gift Bags for Your Wedding or Party
Event bags work best small and simple. On personalized wedding favor bags, a name and a date can be all you print. A short thank-you works too. Think about a welcome bag as well, for guests who’ve traveled. Custom party favor bags can follow a theme color. Custom birthday bags often show a child’s name or age.
Big runs are rare for events. You can still customize a small batch. We confirm the minimum quantity in your quote. Leave yourself time. Artwork and the proof must be finished before production starts.
Gift Bags for Business: Retail, Trade Shows and Promotions
Trade shows and boutique counters both benefit from a printed bag. People carry it around, so your name goes with them. Put brochures, samples or a small branded item in promotional gift bags. Personalized swag bags also work for staff gifts and conference welcome packs.
Your logo and brand colors are on every custom gift bag for business. Each handover then looks planned. Giving out drinks at a trade show? Take a look at our can multipacks. Selling online as well? See our e-commerce packaging. Before you pick a bag size for retail, see how much shelf and counter space you actually have. A counter display box can go by the register next to the bags. Shelf-ready packaging is useful if the product goes straight onto the shelf.
Kraft, Paper or Card Stock for Your Bags
How a bag looks and feels depends a lot on the material. So does the load it can carry. Your options for customizable paper bags are kraft, art paper, card stock and recycled paper.
Kraft Paper Bags
Kraft has a brown, natural look. It holds ink well. Logos in one or two colors look good on it. Handmade brands suit it too. Want to skip plastic carriers for drinks? See our plastic-free carriers.
Art Paper and Card Stock
Art paper has a smooth surface. Full-color artwork looks sharp on it. Card stock adds body. Boutiques and events are a good fit for customized paper Custom Gift Bagsags in these materials.
Handles, Finishes and Extras
Finish and handle decide how a bag feels. Matte or soft-touch lamination suits boutique bags. Put a foil logo on one and give it ribbon handles, and you get a luxury look. That is what custom luxury gift bags are about. Want shine or texture? UV coating, embossing and debossing can be used on one spot only, such as the logo. Handles come in rope, ribbon, twisted paper or die-cut.
Giveaways don’t need much. A rope handle, a gloss or matte finish and a one-color print will do. It’s the small things people notice, though. How clean the print is. How neat the handle is. How tidy the finish is.
Holiday, Wine and Seasonal Gift Bags
Seasonal bags do better when they’re ready early. Custom Christmas gift bags are a good fit for holiday sets and corporate gifts. A simple one-color print on custom Christmas bags works well for limited editions. With custom wine gift bags, the height has to be right. Choose a handle that can take a bottle’s weight. Selling bottles in sets? See our beverage multipacks. Wine in a bag-in-box? Check our bag-in-box outer packaging. Patterned gift bags give a seasonal look. Put your order in 15 days or more before you need the bags. Ask us about timing for your date.

What Goes Into the Price of Custom Gift Bags
The price comes down to quantity, size, material, handles, print colors and finish. Larger runs usually bring the cost per bag down, while full-color printing, foil and special handles push it up. A small kraft bag with a one-color logo is at the simple end, and a large art paper bag with foil and ribbon handles is at the other. Wholesale orders are quoted by project. We don’t list prices here, because they depend on those choices.

What size gift bag do I need?
That depends on your product. We quote custom sizes. Give us the width, height and depth of your product. We will suggest a size from there.
Which is better for gift bags, kraft or art paper?
Pick by look. Natural feel and one- or two-color logos? Kraft. Full-color artwork that needs to look sharp? Art paper. Card stock and recycled paper are available too.
Which handles can I pick?
Rope, ribbon, twisted paper and die-cut are all available. A bigger, heavier load needs a stronger handle, so think about size and weight.
Is one color enough for my logo?
Often it is. Many logos look fine in one color. If your design has a photo or several colors, full color makes more sense.
Can you add foil stamping or embossing to gift bags?
Yes, along with debossing. Which ones work depends on the material, so let us know what you're using.
When will my gift bags arrive?
Most orders take 7 to 14 days in total, production and shipping included. We confirm exact timing in your quote.
Can I see a proof or sample first?
Yes, you get a proof to review before production starts. Want a sample as well? Say so when you request your quote.
Can retail stores order gift bags wholesale?
Yes. We quote wholesale and bulk orders. Include your size, quantity and artwork.
Which logo file format works best?
AI, EPS or PDF vector files are best. Only have a PNG or JPG? Send it anyway. We'll look it over.
Can I get gift bags in time for Christmas or other holidays?
Yes. As long as you order early. Fifteen days ahead is the least. Artwork, proofing and production all need that time.
