Here’s the thing: there shouldn’t be anything plain about your tote bag. No matter if you’ve sewn one yourself or bought one at the store, there are a ton of ways you can make it match your style.

1. Add Some Block Print Power

Embellish your tote with Y-O-U … or whatever initials you have. You can keep it traditional or go all out with wild and crazy fonts — either way, there’ll be no mistaking which bag belongs to you.

3. Paint With Stencils
