5 Best Holiday Gift Bags: Buy Blank for DIY or Customized with Your Artwork

Holiday gifting isn’t just about what’s inside the package – the gift bag itself sets the tone. Whether you’re a small business, event planner, church, school, or a busy parent putting together holiday goodies, choosing the right reusable bag can make your gifts feel more thoughtful, premium, and personal.

At BagzDepot, you can order these bags blank for DIY decorating (think vinyl, screen print, fabric markers, or ribbons) or fully customized with your artwork or logo. Below are five of the best holiday gift bags to elevate your seasonal gifting this year.

Style: Mini-sized “shopping bag” look that feels upscale and gift-ready.

2. Book Jute Burlap Bag

For a rustic, natural holiday look, the Book Jute Burlap Bag is a standout choice. The textured jute/burlap material pairs perfectly with cozy winter themes, farmhouse style, and eco-friendly gifting.

Material: Sturdy jute/burlap for a natural, eco-conscious feel.

Customized: Print your logo, event name, or holiday message on the front for a branded bag that guests will reuse all year.

3. Celebration Wine Bag

If you love the natural look of jute but want a wine-specific option, the Jute Wine Bag is ideal. It combines rustic charm with practicality and can be used for wine, olive oil, specialty vinegar, or other tall gourmet items.

Material: Jute/burlap for a high-end, eco-friendly presentation.
Style: Wine bag with sturdy handles; certain styles include dividers for multiple bottles.

5. Iconic Shopping Bag

When you want a larger, premium tote that doubles as both a gift bag and a practical everyday bag, the Iconic Shopping Bag is your go-to choice. It’s big enough to hold multiple gifts, apparel, cozy blankets, or full holiday bundles.

Material: Heavy-duty cotton canvas for long-lasting use.
Size: Spacious shopping tote silhouette with comfortable shoulder handles.
Perfect for: VIP gift sets, staff appreciation gifts, welcome bags, and holiday retail packaging.

Blank for DIY: Ideal if you want to keep inventory flexible – decorate some bags, leave others plain, or let your customers personalize them.
Customized: Add your logo, holiday graphic, or campaign tagline so the bag continues to promote your brand long after the season ends.

Blank vs. Customized: Which Option Is Right for You?

Not sure whether to order blank or customized holiday gift bags? Here are a few quick ways to decide:

Choose blank bags if: you love DIY, want to change designs each season, or prefer to personalize each gift with a name or message.
Choose customized bags if: you need a polished, cohesive look for your brand, are ordering in bulk for events or corporate gifting, or want your logo to be seen and reused.
