Eco-Friendly, In-Style, & Your Design: Tote Bags [Infographic]

The market for reusable and sustainable bags is growing as more states ban single-use plastics. I remember when this was first put into action where I live in New York, and it was chaotic at the beginning! Unfortunately, stores will charge a small fee if you need a paper bag so it makes sense to spend $1 to $2 on a reusable bag, right? There is often a logo and graphics from the store for the current season or the campaign they are currently running. The kicker, they are often made from recycled plastic (which is still harmful to the environment) and can hold germs for quite a long time. The alternative is fabric-made tote bags! Below are 4 facts you may not have known about tote bags.

Something you may have not known is Wandering Texan Creations offers 2 varieties of tote bags; linen and canvas. Our linen tote bags are slimmer and perfect for holding books, your laptop, or even school supplies (perfect for teachers and students!). Our canvas tote bags hold a larger capacity of items with a 3” depth and can be easily used for groceries, as a gym bag, or a weekend bag! 

We offer fully customizable designs and you can collaborate with me to Create Your Own Tote Bag in which you can choose from a variety of options and 1 or 2-sided designs. If you do not want a custom design at this time, we also have a variety of designs ready for purchase as well! Take a look at our tote bags here. 

A tote bag, according to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, is defined as a large 2-handled open-topped bag (as of canvas). This gives tote bags the versatility of design and customization with the durability to be effortlessly fashionable. As times change and the need to go green grows, you can endlessly customize tote bags to individualize your style. They also make amazing gifts to share with friends and family!
