Embroidery is an effective way to add branding, a team name, and even a color scheme to any backpack. A custom logo embroidered backpack is like mobile advertising, and it’s often worn every day, generating interest and visibility around town. It’s a cost-effective promotional product that can build brand awareness, increase trust in your business, and grow your customer base.
When selecting a backpack for embroidery, look for a sturdy and durable fabric that will hold up to repeated use. A sturdy canvas is a popular choice, but polyester and nylon are also excellent choices. If possible, try to find a backpack with zippers on both sides so that you can personalize it on both the front and the back. Unzip the backpack wherever you plan to put a design so that you can see if there is an existing motif or zipper that will interfere with embroidery.
Adding a personalized touch to a backpack can be a fun and creative project that children of all ages will enjoy. Personal photos and drawings make great backpack decorations. Other possibilities include pom poms, iron-on patches and transfers, and embroidery.
To start, have your child choose a design for their backpack. Then, gather the necessary materials: Fabric pencil – A Bohin extra-fine retractable fabric pencil works well on black backpacks. Embroidery floss – A pack of bright colors works well for kids. Tapestry needle – A tapestry needle is a larger embroidery needle that can punch through canvas and heavier fabric more easily.
