A couple friends birthdays are coming up and I need to find a gift for them. I'd like to buy them each a a nice tote bag. But I can't seem to find any nice ones, I'd think they'll like. They will be graduating soon too. So I'd like to locate them asap. I'm in charge of finding the tote bags, while the rest of their friends get them other things like: pen sets, file folders, mugs, etc.

The bags need to be heavy duty, because these two are hard on bags. These bags also need to have longer handles. Most bags I'm found have short ones. As for colors the basic white/beige bag with colored stripes would be ok. But I'd like to get them bags with alternate colors, or even designs on them. FYI these two are married so I'd like each bag to represent them individually.

If you know of a good place to get these tote bags please post here, and tell me about them.

There are a number of styles of totes at www.homeroomcatalog.com. They also personalize. I don't know anything about the bags' durability though.

I just did a google search for "personalized teacher tote bags," and the first few selections are pretty cool. The homeroom teacher site just listed above is one of those as well. The first few links were cute.

My favorite gift I got from my family was a name plate for my desk. It was really wild finally seeing my name on the desk. It was monogrammed too.

If the tote bag thing doesn't work out, let us know. We can come up with a few alternate suggestions.

It looks like L.L.Bean is the place to go. They have a great color selection, and handle choice.

Thx, for the info. These two are going to love the bags.
