BYOB Upcycle Designer Tote

Base Price:$57.00

Design your own bag. Each bag is unique, made with exclusive decorator swatches and other upcycled fabric in my stash. Choose the fabric and options you want to Build Your Own Bag just the way you want. Selections are being updated often.

BYOB Tote Options

A. Choose the Outside Fabric

Because I use upcycled decorator swatches for these totes, some fabrics will only cover 1 side of the tote. Browse the fabric choices for SAME FABRIC ON BOTH SIDES and DIFFERENT FABRICS ON EACH SIDE to find something you really like.

C. Tote Front Options

You can keep the front of your tote simple; add a pocket from an upcycled pair of jeans, or personalize it with up to 4 denim applique letters.

Applique Letters*

Each letter is 4 - 5 1/2" high, cut from upcycled denim jeans and top-stitched to the front of your tote between the handles

D. Tote Base

Choose a Canvas or Vinyl base to protect your tote and it's contents no matter where you set it down.

Canvass Swatches *

Vinyl Options *

E. Tote Handles

Tote handles extend down the front and back of the bag into the base, assuring that they will not detach from the tote, while adding to the stability of the bag sides. Handles are 1" wide twill covered with the same linen you chose for your lining (below). Choose a typical wrist length (8" opening) or adjustable shoulder straps that can expand to a 22" opening.

F. Lining Options

The BYOB Tote has a durable linen lining with a foam stabilizer backing that gives your tote body without adding weight. Choose a linen color that compliments your bag from the swatches below. This can be the same color as your handles or a contrasting color.

Linen Lining Options *

G. Optional Inside Pockets

Add any or all of these inside pockets:

H. Snap-In Inserts

Choose any of these add-on features that snap inside your tote for extra versatility and usefulness:

If you don't see your total and the Add to Cart button below, you have probably not selected one of the required options. Go back and check to see that you have made a selection on each part that has a red * asterisk.

Total: $57.00

Each tote includes a Velcro top closure and 4 snaps inside to attach Snap-in add-ons, such as the zippered wallet insert, key fob and water bottle pouch. These can be purchased separately, and most fit in other Upcycle Bags.

  1. Donna –

    I absolutely love my beautiful new Tote bag! It is the perfect size and holds all the things I need during a short trip or appointment. My ipad fits snugly and doesn’t slip out. A calendar or folder of important papers fit in the center, along with my wallet, keys and even a snack. They don’t get lost like they do in my larger bags. I loved being able to choose the fabrics and optional items that work for me and, though I can sew, it was wonderful to have someone else work to produce such a unique, functional and well-made item.

    This Bag is THE BEST EVER! Not only is it beautiful, but it is also brilliantly designed so that I can instantly find everything I am looking for, and somehow all my stuff fits in it without any clutter. My favorite part is the cardholder wallet (that can be removed and used as a clutch). I love the key strap (which is also removable). Clearly, Jeeni designed this purse with a lot of thought into how women actually use purses. On top of all that, it is made from 100% upcycle materials. The only drawback is that it can be hard to get things done because so many people stop me to give me compliments!
