I came across a project for stamping on canvas totes in the Summer/Fall Papercrafts magazine. I'm interested in making some of these totes for gifts. Was wondering if anyone knows of anyplace that sells these in bulk? Thanks!
Hello- I bought mine from Orientaltrading.com. they sell in lots of 12- I bought 24 stamped my customers name on them with alphadots using fabric markers. I put the new catty inside along with wish list, postits, inspiration sheets and a pen. One of our projects was to stamp any decoration they wanted on the bag!

If you go to ebay>crafts , then search for canvas totes you will get 800+ items. THEN look at the left sidebar and click on Wholesale Lots. You can buy plain canvas totes for $1.25 each to 1.79 each..... depends on how many you purchase.
It looks as thought the primary seller of the really plain totes is nepi. I have not dealt with them myself but with feedback number of 9845 @ 99% positive rate, I would go ahead. (I usually check seller's feedback. If they have only sold 10 items, I am very reluctant to go ahead)
You can get some from www.dharmatrading.com, too. Simple non-gusseted ones start at $1.39 each, bigger/stronger bags start at $4.95, and there's a "really big bag" for $10.33. They have canvas lunch bags, too. Here's a link to one set of totes: http://www.dharmatrading.com/html/eng/3399-AA.shtml

I've had good experience with dharmatrading purchasing silk scarves and tie-dye materials.
I had a catalog from oriental trading and it had canvas "garden" type bags that had neat compartments and I now can't find it online can anyone help me to find this type of bag cheap...or do you have an item # that I can type in on ot.com? Thanks for the help.

Our homeschool co-op bought silk scarves and dyes and made a ton of colored play silks out of them. Waldorf toy catalogs sell dyed silk play scarves for up to $10/each and we made them for less than $2/each. The kids love them for making capes and skirts and doll blankets and tents, etc. My 3-1/2 y.o. daughter brings a pink one in the car to cover her head when she takes a nap.
Now, thanks to the OP and seeing the totes, I'm thinking of having a tote-decorating session at co-op this year. Great idea - thanks for sharing!
