Cute Gift Giving Ideas for Tote Bags
Adorable tote bags serve as gifts by themselves, but you can also fill totes with other cute gifts that fit the occasion. Make alterations to tote bags or seek out certain textures, styles, brands and theme totes for your friend. These bags have much more room than a purse, so feel free to utilize this space and tuck plenty of surprises inside.

Painted Fabric Tote Bags
-
Buy solid white or cream tote bags along with some fabric paint and get ready to transform these plain bags into adorable creations. You can paint flowers, ladybugs, butterflies and other creatures on the tote bags with a small paint brush. Spray spray-on glue on the bag and sprinkle glitter on top to add shimmer. Make cute animals by pressing your thumb print in paint and then pressing the print down on the front of the tote. Let it dry and then use a small paint brush and black paint to paint a face on the animals. You can create little yellow chicks, bunnies and all sorts of finger print animals. Alter these bags more by gluing buttons, fake gem stones and other accessories on the bag.
Animal Print Bags with Cute Critters Inside

Give an animal lover an animal print tote showcasing leopard print, zebra stripes, giraffe designs or other prints. The front of the tote can also feature bunny rabbits, wolf faces or other animals in the center of the print. Fill the bag with more animal print accessories such as glasses, scarves and other items that the person getting the gift might enjoy. You can place stuffed critters inside that also showcase a decorative print, or feature other types of animal gifts such as figurines, animal jewelry and little crystal animals.

These totes can also say "It's a Girl" with a stork on the front. The new mom can also use a baby theme tote as an additional diaper or clothing bag.
