It’s that time of year again— holiday shopping. One of our favorite activities here at Sea & Grass. To help make this year a success, we’ve compiled a holiday shopping guide stuffed full of handcrafted seagrass bags at oh so affordable prices. So when your loved one unwraps the tote, there will be quite a few oohs and ahhs. Plus, for each Sea & Grass bag sold, a portion of the profits goes to the Areeya Scholarship Fund to help children and women finish their education. 

We firmly believe that if you add a handbag in for yourself, there’s nothing wrong with that either. Without further ado, here are 12 perfect bags that look great under the Christmas tree and even better unwrapped. 

Sea & Grass Gifts Under $50

There’s no reason to break the bank when it comes to designer quality. You can find a high end bag at a price worth talking about. Each of these handbags, totes, or gifts are under $50 and make amazing holiday presents. 

Casey Pouch 

The Casey Pouch with faux leather tassel is the perfect size for your phone, keys, and lipstick at any holiday gathering. The blush zipper and tassel have a soft, feminine vibe that blends with any outfit. You can use it as a clutch or pop the pouch into the Sara Market Tote. 

Pom Pom Wristlet

The super chic and functional Pom Pom Wristlet is the kind of handbag for quick trips to the store or lunch with the girls. It has pastel pom poms handsewn into the seagrass, giving it a fun pop. The simple yet sophisticated bag with a seagrass strap swings nicely from your wrist. 

Ella Wallet Crossbody

You won't need another bag when you add the Ella Wallet Crossbody to your wardrobe. It's half clutch, half purse, and comes with a chic faux leather tassel. The two colors, tan and ivory, match any outfit rain or shine. Plus, it's a price worth talking about or wearing at the very least. 

Sea & Grass Candle 

Bring the holidays to the beach with the Sea & Grass Candle. While it’s not quite reversible, it does have two uses— permeates rooms with a relaxing citrusy aroma and turns into the perfect cocktail glass. 

The highly sourced tumbler is reusable as a cocktail glass once the candle has burned through. Wrapped around the smooth glass is seagrass to give sophistication and elegance to any abode. Or in this case, a Mai Tai with a splash of eggnog.  

Kids Shell Tote

The Rylee + Cru Kids Shell Tote is quite possibly the cutest gift for the little one in your life. The handwoven tote has an earthy shell hand stitched into the seagrass, adding to the adorableness factor. Your kiddo can wear it across the body, making it hard to lose or on the shoulder for a stylish effect. 

Kids Starfish Bag

While there’s nothing wrong with shells, the Rylee + Cru Starfish Tote may be more your style. The starfish stitching on the handwoven seagrass make any outfit come alive. The bag is also a perfect vessel to hold seashells, treasures, or other trinkets. 

Kids Rainbow Bag

The mini Kids Rainbow Bag with the sweetest rainbow stitched in the seagrass makes even the littlest member oh so sweet. The backpacks come in three rainbow-stitched colors — pastel, primary, and earthtone. It may be the perfect tote for an outdoor adventure or for holding toys and snacks. 

Kids Ice cream Bag

Ice cream is a treat regardless of the season. This is especially true when it comes to the Kids Ice Cream Bag. The magnetic top over the handwoven seagrass cone makes it hard for anyone to lose their ice cream cone. Kids will go crazy for this bag. 

Handwoven Bags Under $100

Mini Tote

The Mini Tote-Tan is by far one of our most popular bags. It features faux leather straps and a drawstring closure to keep all your valuables safe. The Mini Tote is the go to bag for any occasion because it looks good with a light summer dress or paired with an evening jacket. The classic design really keeps on giving all year long. 

Ella Wallet 

The handwoven Ella Wallet clutch is simple and elegant. The adjustable strap make it possible for the Ella Wallet to be worn as a purse for those who want to change up the design. It comes in ivory or tan and  you can add a genuine leather tassel keychain for added sophistication. 

Quinn Tote

Named after Sea & Grass’s daughter, the Quinn Tote is as cute as it is unique and practical. The show stopping traditional weave, lined with a soft canvas fabric, blends and accentuates outfits. It truly is a one-of-a-kind gift. 

Rainbow Backpack with Pleiades Design

The Kid’s Rainbow Backpacks may be the most coveted gift this holiday season. In collaboration with Pleiades Design, Sea and Grass designed a rainbow backpack to match their fall dress collection. 

The backpacks come in three rainbow designs that take three days to weave and sew, and will not last long. Your kiddo can wear them as a satchel, backpack or a crossbody (3-in-one).

Designer Handbags Just Over $100

Camryn Totes

Your loved one will become their own cheerleader with the Camryn Black Pom Pom Bag. It can hold all your goodies— from phone to reading material— and comes in different sizes. The all-natural woven tote has black pom poms handwoven to the top of the bag for a fun yet sophisticated look. 

If you love the Camryn bag's design but want to forgo the pom poms, try the Camryn Monogram Tote. You can personalize the bag by having up to three initials hand-stitched into the seagrass weave. 

Or forgo the monogram and pom-poms altogether and add a crossbody strap for easy carrying. The Camryn Costal Stripe is serene, beautiful, and perfect for outings or shopping trips.

Sara Wooden Handle Tote

If you prefer a large bag capable of handling any outing, you'll fall in love with the Sara Wooden Handle Tote. The acacia wooden handle makes carrying the bag a breeze. Not to mention, the handwoven, earthy design is timeless.

Pleiades Camryn Rainbow Earthtone Bag

If you thought rainbows and sunshine were only for kids, you might change your mind. The Pleiades Camryn Rainbow Earthtone makes it easy for adults to discover the power of the rainbow all over again. And if you love mommy and me outfits, you can match with one of these rainbow-inspired designs for kids.

Whatever bag you choose as a holiday gift, the Sea & Grass bags won’t disappoint. The classical, earthy textures with the soft yet firm seagrass stand up to the test of time. When your loved ones unwrap these bags and totes, the appreciation will last for years to come.
