3D Tote Bag with Fun Vibes: Ladies Craft Night
There’s never a need to gather your girlfriends together but a creative night in seems to give us the push we need to lean into a cozy evening of DYI. This time make something you can use but that is still stylish. Custom 3D embroidered tote bags are fun as everyone comes up with their own crazy title and yet will look profesionally made.
The Craft How To: 3D Word Tote Bags
Here’s the easy and chic craft you can tackle together:
- Start with blank totes – order a pack from Temu or Amazon (canvas works best).
- Choose your words – print or stencil them onto our bag. Think short, bold sayings
- Girls Night
- This Bag Has Crazy Stuff in It
- Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice
- Initials or momograms
- Zero Regrets Extra Fries
- Champgane Made me Do It
- More Expreso], Less Depresso
- Too Sassy to Share Snacks
- Fueled by icied coffee and chao
- Snack accident waiitng to happen
- Doing my Best; Kinda; Maybea
- Cute but a Little Psycho
- Trace with a glue gun – outline your stencil with hot glue gun to create a rasied guide
- Stitch embroidery thread – go right over the glue with colorful embroidery thread. The glue acts as your 3D foundation and help your stitches pop.
- Personalize – add charms, tassels, or even little painted details if you like.
Setting the Scene: Decor and Vibe

The Menu
Appetizers
Your guests are going to want to get right at it so I would suggest a seasonal grazing board: cheeses, dried fruits, crackers and nuts. Place it at your Drink Station so you don’t have to worry about getting your tote bags dirty with any excited cheese eaters,
