We have a huge range of eco-friendly and luxury gift bags - including small, medium, large, and extra large paper gift and carrier bags, tote bags, compostable carrier bags (made from cornstarch!), and pouches/fabric bags. Our paper gift bags include options with paper twist handles or rope handles - these thick, strong gift bags are available in tonnes of different colours to suit any occasion, with printing available in-house if you’d like branded/personalised gift bags. Check out our printed gift and shopping bags here.
Our luxury gift bags come in lots of different sizes - from small right up to extra large. (Just FYI, all the measurements you see on our website are internal.) Have a gander below at what we’ve got and how they can be used…
What can I use gift bags for?
Party gift bags: We’ll start with a classic use - rope handled gift bags of any size are perfect for giving your best pal a present for their birthday or Christmas, with ribbons or tags available too to make a full gift solution!
And have you seen our box bags? These are luxury, multi-functional, and sturdy, offering protection for delicate goods or high-tech gadgets, and can also hold multiple items as part of a boutique gift set.
Favours bags: Speaking of birthdays and Christmas, small and medium luxury gift bags are particularly good for handing out favours at parties, as well as at weddings, baby showers, hen dos, etc.
Our cotton bags, organza (a sheer fabric) bags, and clear cello bags are also great here - fill them with pre-wrapped sweets or chocolates, jewellery, keyrings, stationery, mini cosmetics - whatever you like!
Corporate/PR events: At a trade show, exhibition, or PR event and want to give out products/samples to guests? Or looking to give out presents at a staff party?
Boutique gift bags are an easy packaging solution, and our range also includes luxury bottle bags that are perfect for presenting your favourite bottle of bubbly at any event or party.
Seasonal parties: Printing is available on many of our paper gift bags, but did you know you can also get cotton bags printed?
These make particularly good choices for Christmas and Easter, with the option to foil print all sorts of seasonal designs to fit the occasion, whether you’re a brand hosting an event or an individual throwing a party.
Shopping/carrier bags: Our luxury paper gift bags and compostable carrier bags both make great alternatives to rubbish old plastic bags! Use them in your retail store, with different sizes available to match the products you sell.
Take a look at our tote bags too - these are perfect for carrying groceries, books, gym gear - you name it! It’s always handy to have one on you (I speak from experience here!), with sturdy straps to ensure comfortable carrying when you’re out and about.
Giveaways or influencer bags: Hosting a giveaway online or in your store? Present the lucky winners their prizes in a boutique gift bag to up the excitement, and use them as influencer bags too.
Paper gift bags with rope or paper twist handles
At Tiny Box Company, our rope handle gift bags are made from approximately 230 micron card, making them sturdy, durable, and luxury gift bags. (A micron is a thousandth of a millimetre - so this is 0.23mm!
We also use gsm (grams per square metre) as a measurement, and while they don’t directly correlate, a 230 micron card gift bag is around 250gsm.) They’re home compostable too (just take out the rope handles - you can still recycle the rope, but remove the plastic end first!).
Our paper twisted handle gift bags are also essential to any packaging range, with options to buy packs of 25, providing a fab cost-effective solution that’s still great quality and eco-friendly.
These are lightweight (about 100gsm) but they’re still strong - take these to an event where you’ll need plenty of bags to hand out products to potential customers.
Or use them in your retail store as an easy alternative to plastic carrier bags, or stock up at home so you always have one ready last minute for the next party you’re invited to. We also have kraft tape handle paper carrier bags - which of course are recyclable too!
Printed gift, shopping, and carrier bags
Not only are our luxury gift bags available in all sorts of different sizes, we have a whole rainbow of colours to choose from.
These range from simple black, white, and grey, to bold and beautiful lilac, fondant pink, apricot crush, forest green, and more - with all these to pick from you’ll be sure to find one that matches your brand’s colours.
Our boutique paper gift bags can also be printed with either foil or digital designs - foiling gives your bags a beautiful, luxury finish whereas digital can print in stunning full colour for a truly one-off product.
Both are great for displaying your brand’s logo or your message to a friend - whether that’s saying ‘Happy Birthday!’ or ‘Thank You For Coming To My Wedding!’.
Printing is also available on our cotton bags - these will all look great for all sorts of uses, occasions and events - birthday parties, weddings, you name it.
Gift boxes from Tiny Box Company
It’s not just luxury gift bags we have on our website, we also have a wide range of gift boxes available to go perfectly with your gift bag.
Styles include standard lid and base boxes, magnetic snap shut gift boxes, and smaller options like matchboxes and pillow boxes that are great for holding dainty accessories and keeping them safe and snug!
These come in the same colours as our gift bags, so you can be sure all your packaging is matchy matchy, and we have loads of packaging accessories too - browse our tissue paper, gift tags, and ribbon to find everything you need for the full ultimate packaging solution.
