Default Tote Bag ???

How do you make the handles for the tote bags? What size of paper to use, etc...

I just use paper. I cut it 1/2" by 11''. You need 2. I add paper strips on the front and back of the tote, too. I just cut 2 more of the 1/2", one for each side. I attach the handles on the inside with a brad on the outside. Clear as mud? I have some samples in my gallery. I've seen ribbon handles but that is expensive and droopy. I like the way the paper stands up.

I used a wide ribbon and attached it with brads. It turned out pretty cute.
