Initials, Inc. – Personalized Handbags, Totes, Clutches and More #win

Sometimes I meet up with companies where I am so overwhelmed by their products and possibilities that I become “speechless”. Well, this is one of those times. Initials, Inc. offers SO MUCH that I don’t know where to even begin.

I mean, what are you interested in? Personalized backpacks (Virtual Catalog page 25 – 27) for summer camp or school? Mother’s Day gift ideas like Engraved Candles (page 21) or toiletry bag (page 15)? Or maybe a summer must-have like the Shady Lady Case (page 10) or huge Resort Tote. Of course, baby items like a diaper bag (page 23) and personalized blankets (page 22) are always popular with my readers.

Well, the Mom Buzz was privileged to be chosen to review Initials, Inc’s Personalized Resort Tote. I’ve reviewed “beach totes” in the past, and I was very pleased with the ones I’ve buzzed about. But one thing I can always use more of as a mom with two boys is SIZE. I need more size in my tote. Well, I think the Resort Tote is MASSIVE, yet still classy. It measures 24″ w x 18″ h x 10″ d. I put it next to another bag I often use at the beach just so you can get a better idea of size.

Currently there is only one color choice, although I hope more become available in the future. The material is a sleek, easy to wipe clean, microfiber. Very durable, very cute. I love the chocolate color with white dots.

What’s fun about Initials, Inc is that everything can be personalized to some extent. I was allowed to choose my personalization. In the catalog they had a 3 letter monogram in Watermelon. I opted for 2 lines of words that have my last name followed by “Family”. Something like “Tales Family”. I decided to go with the Doodle Font in Hot Pink. LOVE IT! The Hot Pink and Doodle Font really pop off the bag!

Resort Collection

The embroidery is exceptional with no faults. The top is open but each side snaps on the side which helps keep the items inside safely, yet at the same time it allows for larger items to pop out of the top. In other words, the open top doesn’t limit you when you arecarrying a lot of large items to the pool or beach for your whole family. The handles seem to be a sturdy canvas-like material in chocolate.

The Resort Bag is part of the Resort Collection from Initials, Inc, which also includes a canopy umbrella, canteen, cooler, spa wrap and bucket. You’ll find the collection on page 4 and 5 of the online catalog. You can see the personalization options, which include font, lines/monogram and color on page 30 and 31 of the catalog.

There are so many great summer, school and Mother’s Day options at Initial’s Inc. Here are some hot links for you to check out!
