Bag strapping is one of the simplest ways to eleva Bag strapping is one of the simplest ways to elevate your handmade bags — it adds structure, comfort, personality, and a polished finish to even the quickest make. In this week’s Elevate Series, I’m sharing my favourite types of bag strapping, how to choose the right width and material, and a few easy ways to add colour and texture for a more professional look.There are so many lovely places to buy bag strapping, from Japanese craft stores to online quilt shops and everyday budget finds. I’ve collected mine over the years from a mix of travel stops and online favourites — each one adds its own charm to totes, pouches, crossbody bags, and other beginner‑friendly sewing projects.If you’re a shop that stocks bag strapping, feel free to comment below so makers can discover you. And I’d love to know — where do you buy yours? I’m always discovering new favourites.Some of my go‑to places for strapping: @yuzawaya (online Japanese craft shop); @okadaya, Shinjuku (Tokyo); @nomuratailor (Kyoto); @daiso_official (100‑yen shop — stock varies); @missouriquiltco (online)Save this post for the next time you want to elevate your bag‑making ✨#sewingtips #bagmaking #bagstrapping #handmadegiftsideas #beginnersewingprojects elevateseries
