Poor Personalization

Best Uses:

Daycare

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Vibrant Canvas Totes:

Disappointed that the lettering is not stitched. The felt sticker applique is not very attractive and the E at the end of my daughter's name is crooked. Seems as though it will rub off with wear. The description said 5" gusset and I thought there would be something in the bottom to give it support. There is nothing. I cut a piece of cardboard and put it down in there. On the positive side, the colors are quite adorable and the canvas seems sturdy. We'll see if it holds up with daily totes to the daycare!!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Vibrant Canvas Totes:

I bought this for my daughter 7 years ago and we STILL use it weekly! Perfect for the library, day trips, overnights, church, "toy bag" for car trips, etc. Love it so much my 3 1/2 year old son has one and I am ordering my newborn one today! Have given as gifts and they use theirs all the time as well. Money well spent!

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Vibrant Canvas Totes:

My then 4 year old daughter received this as a present from her grandparents for Christmas. It has always been used for trips to the library. We actually call it her "library bag". It is perfect for that-roomy, but just the right size for her. She loves that it has her name on it. I love that her library books stay in there all week-that's where they belong. Believe me, it saves alot of headaches and searching under beds and couches! We love it so much that my now 4 year old twin boys are asking when they can get their own "library bag".I agree stitched on letters would look nicer-but for [$] I am extremely happy with this bag and am ordering 2 more right now!

The colors and style of the bag are very cute; however, the description didn't indicate that the name would be hot stamped rather than stitched. The hot stamp is not nearly as nice.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Vibrant Canvas Totes:

I got this for my son for kindergarten because his school requires them to have a canvas tote without any closures. I looked all over at the stores and couldn't find anything that didn't have closures or else they were too big or an inappropriate print for a little boy. This was perfect!

My 6 year old daughter has gone through five of these bags, about one a year. They are cute and certainly handy. I treat it with scotch guard before we use it so that it will resist stains and dirt. It will survive a couple of washings before needing to be replaced.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Vibrant Canvas Totes:

I bought a bag for each of my young boys to carry their diapers, blankets, toys, artwork, etc. to and from day-care each day. They both love their own specail bags. They wash well, but the personalized letters do not adhere well and I had to sew them on so I wouldn't lose part of their names.

Poor quality personalization

By Mrs. P

Describe Yourself:

Practical, Stylish

Comments about Lillian Vernon Vibrant Canvas Totes:

I ordered 5 of these - bag quality ok but pretty skimpy fabric, but had to send them all back as personalizations were all very crooked and un-givable as gifts. also, personalization is not embroidery but some fuzzy iron-on looking lettering. Would not order ever again.
