Bio

I started making these totes because I couldn't find a simple, attractive bag to carry around my everyday things. I didn't want to use a plastic grocery bag (because how pretty are those?), and the other bags I found were too big, too small, too weak or too cumbersome to fold up and carry with me.

These attractive totes are perfect when you need to carry more than what fits in your everyday bag. In fact, they are so pretty that you'll want to show them off everyday!

Bella Totes aren't limited to carrying groceries back from the store. Here are some more ideas for using a Bella Tote:

...take your Etsy packages to the post office
...be the swanky artist with your promos inside
...carry your library books back and forth
...gift bags -- it's really two gifts, the gift and the bag!
...take papers and magazines on the train, bus, subway
...knitting/crocheting, either on-the-go or staying at home
...each child can put their toys in a tote to take on trips
...children can take them to school/day care
...teacher appreciation gift
...tuck one away for purchases while traveling or on day trips
...send hubby to the office with lunch inside
...send hubby on a business trip with his nice shoes protected inside

Cleaning:
The fabric is 100% cotton, pre-washed and the seams are sewn up so they won't fray. For the longest life of the tote and the tag, wash in cold water with gentle detergent on the gentle cycle and line dry. The tag may be washed, but please be aware that some detergents may fade the ink more quickly than others and some fading will occur with washing.

Please look at the individual pictures of the totes as some of the tags are now different and can easily be washed and dried with the rest of your laundry without fading.

Mailing, Shipping and Handling:
Unless otherwise noted in the listing or discussed in convos, I will mail your order within 24-48 hours after your payment has cleared. See individual listings for shipping and handling charges. If you're interested in purchasing more totes in one transaction than what is available, please contact me.

Returns:
I take care in creating each and every tote, and I pay attention to all the details. However, in the event you are not 100% satisfied, please let me know. I will accept returns for unused totes if you contact me within 3 days after receiving your tote. The shipping and handling charge to send the tote(s) to you will not be refunded; the shipping and handling charge to return the tote(s) to me will not be refunded.

All totes are made in a smoke-free home. I do have one cat, and sometimes she likes to "help."
