Match the bag opening to what goes inside

Start with the product or set: note its dimensions, weight and how it will be placed into the bag. The source describes a gable-style top, but does not verify a particular base, closure or handle construction for every order.

Set the carrying brief before choosing the handle

Explain how a customer will pick up and carry the filled bag, and whether it is for a counter hand-off, an event or retail purchase. Share the intended filled weight and any inserts or separate items. Handle type, material and carrying capacity should be confirmed for the selected specification; do not assume a bag is suitable for a certain load from its name alone.

Keep material and environmental wording specific

Send your logo, message and artwork, including any versions for different events or product lines. If you need paper stock or a particular finish, request it and have the details documented.
