Interior Label<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

The quickest and cheapest way to add your branding to your bag is a little label you can sew into the interior seam. <\/span>You can use a pre-designed one or get some <\/span><\/span>custom<\/span><\/span><\/a> made. <\/span>The only downside to this is that only the person using the bag will see it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Exterior Label or Badge<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

One of our favorite ways is to sew a label or badge to an exterior panel, somewhere central. <\/span>There are loads of places where you can order custom badges made from cork, leather or vinyl. <\/span>If you’re being really fancy, you can even order metal ones that fit to your bag with screws or prongs. <\/span>I like to use scraps of leather or cork and stamp them with a <\/span><\/span>heated press<\/span><\/span><\/a> we ordered from Etsy a while ago. <\/span>This is quite an economical way of doing it and also means you use the color that suits your bag. <\/span>The downside is that you need to remember to fit this part way through making the bag. <\/span>I’ve lost count of the times I’ve forgotten to add ours!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Custom Zip Pullover<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n

This is not the cheapest way to add your logo or branding to a bag, but it’s very easy and you’re less likely to forget it. <\/span>We ordered some custom zip pulls a couple of years ago and we still use them now. <\/span>You could use text, a logo, or something else that represents your craft. <\/span>It’s so easy and it adds a real sense of quality to your bag. <\/span>The downside is cost, as the minimum order quantity for zips is usually 100 or more per color. <\/span>Jo likes this method so much she is currently designing a new custom zip pull.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One of our favorite ways is to sew a tag or badge onto an exterior panel, somewhere in the center. <\/span>There are many places where you can order personalized cork, leather or faux badges. <\/span>If you’re really fancy, you can even order metal models that fit your bag with screws or claws. <\/span>I like to use scraps of leather or cork and stamp them with a <\/span><\/span>heated press<\/span><\/span><\/a> that we ordered from Etsy a while ago. <\/span>This is a pretty economical way to do it and it also means you use the color that suits your bag. <\/span>The downside is that you have to remember to adjust it halfway through making the bag. <\/span>I can’t count the number of times I’ve forgotten to add ours!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
