Multi-color Thickened White Card Gift Bag

The handle is a gold twisted cord with a sheen on it, and a separate gold satin bow is tied at the base of the two handles: two kinds of gold on one bag — the cord firm and reflective, the bow soft and matte. The bow is its own piece, so it can be tied on for a gift and taken off for everyday shop use, and while it is on, it covers the knots and the punched holes, so the mouth reads as one complete line. The body is thickened white card, so the bag keeps its shape instead of folding in at the sides.

The surface carries a coating, so water beads on top instead of soaking through, and one wipe with a tissue clears it; the same goes for hand oil and shelf dust, which is what keeps a light-coloured bag looking presentable in daily use. The coating also holds the colour, so the bag does not look tired after a few weeks on the counter.

- Macaron range: bright red, orange, pink, sky blue and white, plus black

- Gold frame versions: white with a gold frame, and pink with a gold frame

- On the gold frame versions the frame, the cord and the bow are the same gold, so the bag reads as one tone

- More colours can be matched to your brand colour or to a holiday theme

The bag comes blank, so the print is yours: a single-colour logo, a full colour layout, or one foiled mark. On finishes you can pick hot gold, silver foil, raised embossing, texture embossing, UV coating and lamination — foil the logo if you want it to shine, or take embossing with lamination if you want it quiet.

On bag shapes, the range covers cotton rope, paper rope and twisted cord handles, ribbon handles, flat paper handles, die-cut handles, bags with the cord glued inside, hang-tag style bags, kraft bags, coloured card bags and specialty paper bags. Surface finishes are the other side of it: hot gold, silver foil, raised embossing, texture embossing, concave pressing, UV coating, matte scrubbing, lamination and die-cut cut-outs can all be matched, and this bag is coated with a foiled print. The two can be combined: take a single-colour embossed body if you want it quiet, or foil and lamination if you want it to shine — both run in our own factory, with the bag die and the finish positions checked against your drawing.
