Custom Drawstring Bags

Custom Drawstring Bags with Logo in Cotton, Velvet, Satin, and Canvas

What custom drawstring bags are used for

Custom drawstring bags are soft fabric bags with a cord that pulls the top closed. Brands use them to pack jewelry, cosmetics, perfume, candles, hair tools, skincare sets, and small gifts. They also work as party and event favors, trade show giveaways, travel pouches, and gift with purchase bags. Unlike a paper bag, a fabric drawstring bag can be kept and reused, so your logo stays in the customer's home or travel bag long after the purchase. Custom drawstring bags small in size suit jewelry, samples, and lip products, and large bags carry shoes, hair tools, and gift sets. A soft bag also protects delicate items from scratches, which makes it a good inner pack inside a gift box or a shipping box.

Sizes and how to measure

Drawstring bags are sized by width x height. To choose a size, measure your product or box, then add room for the fabric to gather at the top. Common sizes run from about 3 in x 4 in for rings and samples to 12 in x 16 in for larger sets. Remember that a bag closed with a cord loses a little height at the gathered top. Check the weight of what you will pack, because heavier loads need a stronger fabric and cord.

Example sizes (approximate and for reference only; we confirm the exact size before you order):

• Mini: about 3 in x 4 in
• Small: about 4 in x 6 in
• Medium: about 6 in x 8 in
• Large: about 8 in x 10 in
• Extra large: about 12 in x 16 in

Fabric, cord, and styles

Bags can be made of cotton, canvas, velvet, satin, or nylon. Cotton and canvas have a natural, casual look and take printing well. Velvet and satin have a soft, shiny look that suits jewelry, perfume, and gifts. The cord can be a matching or contrast color, in cotton, satin, or rope, and some bags have a cord stopper. The bag can be lined or unlined, with a flat or a gusseted base, and a woven label can be sewn on the seam. Colors can be matched to your brand.

Printing and branding

Custom drawstring bags with logo can be printed or embroidered. Screen printing puts one or more colors on the fabric and lasts well. Heat transfer printing handles full color artwork and small details. Embroidery adds a raised stitched logo that feels solid and suits velvet and canvas. Hot stamp foil in gold or silver works on some fabrics such as velvet and satin. Keep logos simple on small bags, since a clean mark prints better than a long line of text. Bags can carry your logo on the front only, or on both sides.

Orders from 50 units

Orders start at 50 units, which suits a new brand, a shop, or an event. Custom drawstring bags bulk orders cost less per bag than small runs. Custom drawstring bags wholesale orders can be planned in several sizes and repeated as sales grow. If you plan to buy custom drawstring bags in bulk for a campaign or a season, or you need bulk custom drawstring bags for a launch, share your expected volume during the free consultation and we plan around it.

Artwork and dieline

We send a free dieline that shows the print area on the front and back of your bag, so you can see exactly where your logo goes. Supply artwork as a vector AI or PDF file with fonts outlined and images at 300 DPI in CMYK. Screen print, embroidery, and foil designs work best as simple vector files. If you have no artwork yet, free design support and a free consultation are included, and our team can help lay out the logo and the text from your brand colors. You review and approve the artwork before production starts.
