ONLINE OUTLET — These bags are a mix of stock including some 2024 pre-production samples. The samples are made with our new fabric base - cotton sateen (a higher quality fabric with a slight sheen to it).
Each listing specifies the composition. Sizes may vary slightly between designs. Some bags have a small paper display tag attached, which can easily be removed with a quick unpick, or fine scissors.

Reusable Book Bag Sizing Guide: 39 x 27 cm (15 x 11 in). A bit self-explanatory here, but being a reasonably sized bag this can be used for all sorts of other gifts as well, bottles of spirits fit well. These will, however, fit your US trade size novels, and many of the recipe books you find at book stores.
Reusability and the environment
After researching plastic, paper, and fabric’s impact on the environment it was obvious that the best impact you can make is to reuse products for a long, long time. See our blog The Perils of Paper for statistics and research.
You’ll love cotton gift bags because of their long life. Get your whole extended family to buy a set so whenever you exchange gifts, they circulate back and forth between you all. Goodbye, endless consumption and goodbye single-use wrapping paper and tape!
How long does it take you to wrap presents?
The reality for many is that Christmas Eve is both wonderful and mental. You have to find the wrapping paper, tape, scissors, ribbons, gift tags—now the hours of wrapping begins!
When you use fabric gift bags you will get your Christmas Eve back. Spend it watching your favourite Christmas movie with a glass of wine.
“Fabulous, I love mine. We had only a small box of rubbish this year compared to our usual pile. The bags look amazing under the tree” — Sarah
"My goodness, Christmas Eve was awesome ..... so stress-free!!!” — Theresa
Gift wrap is just single-use packaging with fancy designs and pretty colours. At the end of the day, it's no different to the junk packaging on food or other consumables that fill our landfill every day. By choosing reusable cotton bags, you can wrap all your presents each year without a shred of rubbish -- and they look beautiful under the tree too!
