The lovely people from Bleeding Hearts Club recently sent me a personalised tote bag to try. The Bleeding Hearts Club have a gorgeous little Etsy shop that you can visit here where you can also purchase things like notebooks, hand stitched embroidery wall art and more.

I was sent a canvas tote, some stickers and a spare patch, I love the Bleeding Hearts Club logo. It’s simple and I love the style of it. The stickers are good quality and a decent size too.
The bag is made from a strong canvas fabric, it’s also lined with a thick and sturdy black material, it features a little pocket inside – perfect for your mobile phone. The straps/handles are a decent length so the bag isn’t sat in your armpit either! One side of the bag has a Bleedjng Hearts Club patch, a black background and white writing really makes the logo pop out at you. On the other side of the bag, they very kindly embroidered my initials – again, simple yet effective. The off-white colour of the bag contrasts really nicely with the stitching as well.
This tote bag really is very sturdy, it keeps it’s shape when empty and despite the thickness of the fabric, you can still fold it so it will fit into your handbag, perfect for extra shopping!
We took the tote bag on a test drive to Paignton, we filled the bag to the brim with posh Marks & Spencer’s picnic goodies, a towel and sun cream of course!
The bag fits loads in, and unlike some other basic tote bags, the sides of the bag don’t collapse in so everything stays safely in the bag.
This tote bag is ideal really, it’s a good size, strong and really well made. The hand stitched embroidery makes what is a simple design idea that bit lovelier. I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for an all purpose shopping bag or picnic bag! You can purchase your own for £15.00.
You can follow Bleeding Hearts Club on Twitter and don’t forget to visit their Facebook page. I’d like to say thank you to them for sending me this tote bag. I love it!
