Fan Art I need everyone's opinion on my tote bag!!
I finished working on this tote bag yesterday and I love how it turned out but it feels like something is missing?๐ should I just add two more of the kpop group names in the red circle area, or something else in different places? Or should I just leave it as it is ๐คทโโ๏ธ what would you guys do? _!dont mind the pencil marks and wrinkles- it is gonna get hand washed ๐

u/vanilla-lattes Jul 08 '26
Wow you are creative and talented ๐๐๐ I think it looks great as is. I donโt think any other group logo would fit properly without it looking cluttered.
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 08 '26
I agreed, I might just skip out on the logo and might just add stars ๐ซฃ I don't know about talented, but I do have a passion for anything involving a needlework and it means a lot to see such a positive feedback on my project ๐ฅนย

u/durianpurfume Jul 08 '26
This is soooo cute!! I think the empty spaces are fine :) it kinda gives the groups space to "breathe"

u/enh7pen1009_ Jul 08 '26
wait u made that that is so cute oml
•
•
u/Magician6475 Jul 08 '26
So pretty!!
You could add a lightstick or a short fandom Name like atiny, army, stay โฆ
But a few more stars would be lovely as well - they could shoot out from the TXT logo in the middle to fill any space left
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
Thank you ๐ฅน๐ wait that actually sounds rlly cool, thanks for the inspo ๐

u/Automatic-Teach-9586 Engene-stay-moa-atiny-glitt-lunรฉ,andear,fearnot,weflip,zerose Jul 08 '26
I think it looks really good! If you were to add group names they would have to be relatively small though, but I think it looks fine without! If you were really bothered you could add some little sparkles (โจ) or something else to fill in the gaps/any other blank space on the tote
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 08 '26
Thank you!! I might add some stars as a handful people suggested (I'm kinda a Maxamlist, so I like details ๐คญ) I appreciate your feedback and it means a lot ๐ฅน thank you ๐ฅฐ

u/Kanao_puff Jul 08 '26
Thatโs so cute!!! I honestly didnโt notice the empty spaces, but if you want you could add in little accent designs like stars or something ๐
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
Thank you!!! ๐ฅน๐ a lot of people are suggesting stars and I think I might just do that ๐คญ
•
u/JaeyunsCheesecake Jul 08 '26
WOODZ MENTION ๐งก๐ The bag looks amazing, I agree that if adding anything else, some simple stars and sparkles are enough.
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
AYE A WOODZ STAN๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ Everyone is sleeping on him, I love his songs so much ๐ฅน I made extra care to make sure he was popping out ๐ thank you for the compliments it means alot, and I might add some stars and stuff like that โจ๐ฅน๐
•
u/Annual_Confidence_35 Jul 09 '26
I think it looks good , if you add any more groups it will look overcrowded, but if you do want to add something maybe use white or any other color you want and add little stars ? Like those โจโจโจโจ of little accents , you can probably look on Pinterest for ideas but yeah it looks good !! Maybe little flowers or hearts , anything youโd like lol
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 11 '26

It's so cute, and you have great taste in groups. The top space looks fine to me, but I'd personally add something to the bottom one. If it were mine, that's where I'd add Xdinary Heroes. ๐ธ
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 10 '26
I LOVE XINDARY HEROS ๐ฅณ but thank you for the compliments ๐๐ฅน yes i do need to consider that ๐

u/Cherryblossom7890 STAY forever ๐บ๐๐ท๐ฐ๐ญ๐ฟ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ฆ Jul 10 '26
They are SO amazing. My fave is Xymphony and Fire. I know two people who don't like kpop who like them. Seriously though, your bag is so cool.
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 11 '26
Thank you for the support ๐ฅน๐๐ฅฐ your so sweet and it means a lot to me ๐ฅน my favorite is definitely Ghost, Crack in the mirror, strawberry cake, and FIGHT ME โจ I love those 4 A LOT ๐ฅณย
•
u/andwhatnowthough Jul 08 '26
No opinion I can give will come close to match the passion you have for your project. Do whatever you feel like it, art is not just about aesthetics, but the also the love and meaning you put in it. The final product will look amazing either way.

u/FromBeeBee living on second gen as usual! ๐๐ Jul 08 '26
This is so awesome and so cool, what a creation and you got a great talent with this!
Also the colours with each group!
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 08 '26
Thank youuuu so muchhh ๐ฅน๐ฅน I was studying the colors for the groups for a bit of time to make it even special, though surprisingly not a lot of groups have official colors, so I did some fandom stan search ๐ also I dont know about talent, but it's definitely a passion of mine ๐

•
u/MusicRoomNo3 Jul 08 '26
I love this! So so cute. I also didnโt really notice the spaces you circled, the placement looks balanced to me! If you did want to fill them with something, Iโd recommend little decor such as little stars or flowers rather than trying to figure another groupโs logo in
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 08 '26
Thank you for your compliment ๐ฅน yes I do think I might just do small details like stars ๐ซฃ
•
u/Breezyrain Jul 08 '26

I made it myself ๐คญ my friend gave me the tote bag to paint on it for this girls painting tote bag get together, but I'm HORRIBLE at anything that includes drawing, but I love needlework, and this idea popped in my head and I put it to reality ๐ฅน just a bag, needle, emboidering tread, and your fav kpop group logo and I outlined it to the bag ๐ช

•
•
u/dancing_hpfan Jul 08 '26
I think it looks great as it is! I didnโt even notice the gaps!ย
If you want to add something though, maybe symbols or designs from some of the groups? Like skzoo or something. Something cliche or meaningful.
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
Thank you for the compliments! It genuinely means so much to me ๐ฅน๐ I might actually do something like that! I like the idea a lot โจ thanks for the inspo, it got my head turning ๐ฅณ

u/jaytee7777777 Jul 09 '26
I think it looks great but if you really wanted to add something more, how bout NCT ๐ ๐ฑ or EXO
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
I'm contemplating on adding EXO or not because I love that group and I remembered about it while looking through my playlists ๐ซฃ SURPRISINGLY even though I listen to a lot of kpop I barely have few nct branch songs ๐ but thank you so much for the compliments ๐ฅน

•
u/M1chael1370 Jul 09 '26
It looks great. I don't feel like you need to add anything, but it's nice that there's some space for if you find another group you want to add.

WOAHHHHH SO COOLL,I crochet and embroidery is super hard for me,have u got any tips?
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
Thank youu ๐ฅน๐ I've crocheted before actually, but with both of the hobbies, I definitely recommend just taking your time and trying your best to keep it clean while doing it and a lot of patience is definitely needed lol ๐โโ๏ธ but just making and doing it again and again makes you become better and better slowly without you even realizing ๐ (also for emboidering, like what I did, a good outline is always very helpful. What I did for the outline, was put a iPad on the brightess mode and then in between the bag and just got a pencil and just traced the top)ย

u/funkyaerialjunky Jul 09 '26
Add Shinee or BigBang? You don't need to fill the spaces though, it looks fine.
Also very happy Woodz is getting more love!
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 09 '26
Thanks for the groups inspooo ๐ฅน but I'll prob just add EXO and maybe some little stars here and there โจ and Yesss i love WOODZ soo much, and I don't see a lot of merch I personally like so I definitely wanted to incorporate him in ๐โโ๏ธ I stumbled upon him some time back when I was looking at my recommended songs and amnesia popped up and man after that I fell in love ๐คญ

I just looked up if he's touring and if it includes the UK. I just missed him and I had no idea! The Rose as well! Sad now...

I NEED TUTORIAL ON TXT LOGO
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 11 '26
It's actually pretty simple!! I traced it by putting an iPad in between the bag (the iPad was on the brightest setting, and I did this in the evening when it's dark because you can see the outline the best theb) and I got a clean sketch and the small particles were more by eye then tracing ๐ค I hope this made sense? ๐ I could post a tutorial sometime if interested ๐ซฃ

u/natyiee Jul 10 '26
this is so cutee๐ป๐ป although can u pls fill them up like the logos? i think thats all its missing!!

Thank you so much ๐ฅน๐ I actually might do that ๐ซฃ I sketched out some stars today and am planning on emboidering them on and seeing how it will look afterwards ๐ and I'm also adding some slight beads into the bag โจ
•
u/Chaotic-and-Eyekonic Jul 11 '26
it looks wonderfu! maybe if you still havenโt added in the space maybe NCT? or TWS or just add little decorations like stars or microphones!
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 11 '26
Thank you so much ๐ฅน๐ Actually someone mentioned to me before to add NCT but surprisingly with all my vast music taste, I barely listen to them ๐ ( Outside of wayv, I know they are part of the nct branch) But Iโm currently embroidering small stars and sparkles on my bag including some beads, and itโs starting to look adorable! I canโt wait to finish it up and show the final product to everyone ๐ฅน

u/onerose_ Jul 13 '26
Lol actually that sounds really pretty as well! I could never sew or embroider so well literally it always comes out looking like some random blobs.
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 14 '26
Girl me too, embordiery isn't exactly my piece of cake, but outlineing is actually pretty easy when you get a good outline ๐ I definitely say this project is beginner friendly, well except getting the outline is tricky but I just vibe with my kpop playlists โ

Your welcome hehe but how do I make it ??
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 14 '26
All you need is a tote bag, embordiery tread of your liking, basic embordiery skills, and patience ๐ it's actually a pretty easy embordiery project and definitelyย beginner friendly ๐ all you need is a good outline and a needle lol โจ
•
u/effortlessaura Jul 08 '26
That is really adorable!! I do machine embroidery because I just don't have the patience for hand embroidery so I'm extra impressed. If you add anything, a few sparkles or hearts would be cute, but it's honestly great as is!
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 08 '26
A few people mentioned adding stars and I think I might do that โจ But thank you so much for the love it means so much ๐ฅน as someone who cross stitches as most of my emboidering work, this was a pretty quick project ๐ but I love combining my hobbies, aesthetic, and fandoms ๐ฅฐ
•
u/Outside-Positive-368 Jul 08 '26
It's really cute! I only would asldd two groups if their logo is on the smaller side or you can write their name small (like you did with Enhypen). And you of course stan those 2 groups. Otherwise I wouldn't add anything to it.ย
Once again it's really cute and looks so good. You're very talented!
•
u/TopYam1731 Jul 08 '26
thank you for the compliments it means so much ๐ฅน I don't know about talented, but it's something I enjoy doing ๐ฅฐ (honestly I feel like anyone can do it, it was by far one of my easiests projects)ย โจ

u/Outside-Positive-368 Jul 08 '26
I definitely think you are talented! I definitely don't have the patience, the skills or talented for embroidery. So you are definitely talented!ย

u/newnoon111 Multistan Jul 08 '26
Itโs so cute! You could add little details like stars and hearts to fill the empty spaces.
A group you could add can be NCT, their logo isnโt big.

I probably will add some small details like you mentioned ๐ซฃ gonna go on Pinterest and look for some patternsย ๐ thank you for the compliment as well it means so much!! ๐ฅน surprisingly I listen to A LOT of kpop groups but not a lot of nct (outside of wayv I love that group โจ) but you just helped me remember EXO and they aren't that big of a logo ๐คญย

It's so cute! Honestly I didn't notice the empty spots before looking at the picture where you circled them so honestly, unless there are groups you really want to add, I don't feel like it needs anything more...but that's just me, of course :D
The colors are so pretty and the embroidery is so clean, it's really cool! I might steal your idea :D
