canvas tote bags for the bridesmaids and children in our wedding

for wedding party gifts, i am giving the bridesmaids and children in our wedding a canvas tote that i decorated with various ribbon and had monogrammed. for the bridesmaids, i purchased a three pack of purple totes from joann, sewed 1 1/2 inch ribbon around the top and had their initial monogrammed. for the ring bearer i bought a camoflauge bag also from joann, ironed on a few patches and had his name embroidered. and for the flower girls (we have 5 of them), i also purchased the white bags from joann, alon with the ribbon for the top hem and handles. the ballerina tu-tu ribbon was at michaels in their "by the yard" ribbon section. i also had their names embroidered.

here are some of the goodies i put into the bags for the kids

thank you so much! the kids loved them, and they are still one of my top favorite DIY's that i did for my wedding :)

i had it embroidered on

ohhh how cute! alyvia is my neice. my sister liked the name but wanted to spell it differently too because everyone pronounces "olivia" with an A sound anyway
