Custom Printed Dice Bag: How to Get Your Own Art on a Handmade Dice Bag

Custom Printed Dice Bag: How to Get Your Own Art on a Handmade Dice Bag

You send us an image. We print it on fabric. We sew a dice bag from that fabric. The bag arrives with your artwork on the outside, cotton lining on the inside, and room for 300+ dice. That's it — that's a custom printed dice bag. Prices start at $55.00. Add a matching tray for $41.90.

This guide covers the process, image specs, pricing, and what makes custom fabric printing different from other ways to personalize a dice bag.

What Is a Custom Printed Dice Bag?

Regular dice bags are sewn from fabric that already exists — the same material gets cut into hundreds of identical bags. A custom printed dice bag works the other way around: first we print your image onto gabardine, then we cut and sew the bag from that printed fabric. The artwork isn't added on top — it's part of the material. Not a patch, not a sticker, not a heat transfer.

We use the same printing process for custom orders that we use for our own 24-design collection. Same gabardine, same cotton lining, same construction. The only thing that changes is the artwork — it's yours instead of ours.

What Can You Print?

Almost anything, as long as it's yours:

- Character portraits - your DnD character, your party, the villain they'll never forget
- Original patterns - botanical art, geometric designs, something you sketched at 2am
- Campaign art - maps, faction crests, homebrew world imagery
- Photographs - landscapes, textures, anything in high resolution
- Fan art you created - your own work inspired by games, creatures, settings
- Anything else you designed - the weirder the better, honestly

We can't print copyrighted material - no Marvel, Harry Potter, Disney, or licensed game art without permission from the rights holder. Your own art and personal designs are fair game.

How the Process Works

From order to your door - about 18 business days:

Step 1: Place the order. Pick your variant on gamefancy.org - bag without pockets ($55.00), with 6 pockets ($67.00), with rainbow pockets ($78.00). Want a matching tray? Add it for $41.90.

Step 2: Send your image. We'll reach out after purchase with details. Email or file sharing - whatever works. We check the resolution and layout and let you know if anything needs adjusting before we print.

Step 3: Printing. Your artwork is printed directly onto gabardine fabric using professional textile printing. The print covers the entire exterior of the bag - front, back, and sides.

Step 4: Sewing. The printed fabric is cut and hand-sewn into your dice bag. Cotton lining is added inside. Pockets (if selected) are sewn in. The bag is assembled with a drawstring closure and plastic clip.

Step 5: Shipping. Your custom dice bag ships from Ukraine with tracking. Total time from order to delivery: approx. 18 business days (14 standard production + 4 days for custom printing).

Image Requirements

Your image doesn't need to be perfect — we'll review it and work with you. But for the best results:

  • Resolution: 300 dpi, CMYK color model (ideal)
  • Size: 6400 × 2200 pixels or proportionally smaller (3200 × 1100, 4200 × 1450)
  • Layout: the bottom of the bag uses a section of the image, so keep important elements in the center and top area
  • Format: PNG or JPG
  • Not sure? Send it anyway. We'll tell you if it works and suggest adjustments if needed

Lower-resolution images can still work depending on the design — patterns and illustrations are more forgiving than photographs. We'll always confirm with you before printing.

What You Get

The custom dice bag has the same construction as every bag in GameFancy's regular collection:

  • Exterior: gabardine with your artwork printed into the fabric
  • Lining: 100% cotton — soft, protects resin and metal dice from scratches
  • Bottom: square base — stands upright on the table during play
  • Closure: drawstring with secure plastic clip
  • Size: approx. 5 in × 7 in
  • Capacity: 300+ dice

If you add pockets: 6 internal pockets, each fits a full 7-piece dice set. Rainbow pocket option adds 6 different pocket colors for visual sorting.

If you add a matching tray: same custom print on a compact dice tray (5.5 × 5.5 in, snap-button corners, folds flat, removable hard bottom).

Pricing

Variant Price Includes
Bag without pockets $55.00 Custom print, no pockets, 300+ dice
Bag with 6 pockets $67.00 Custom print + 6 sorted pockets
Bag with 6 rainbow pockets $78.00 Custom print + color-coded pockets
Custom dice tray (add-on) $41.90 Same custom print, 5.5 × 5.5 in tray

A custom bag with rainbow pockets + matching tray = $119.90 for a completely unique, handmade set with your own artwork on both pieces.

Why Custom Printing Is Different from Everything Else

There are other ways to "personalize" a dice bag — monograms, color choices, embroidered names. Those are nice but they're surface-level customization on a standard product.

Custom fabric printing is fundamentally different: the bag's entire exterior is your artwork. It's not a standard bag with a name added — it's a bag that couldn't exist without your specific image. That's why it's a stronger gift, a more personal accessory, and a conversation starter at any table.

No other handmade dice bag brand offers custom fabric printing at this price point. Leather dice bag makers charge $80–$150+ for custom work. Mass-produced dice bags can't customize at all. GameFancy prints your art on gabardine and sews a bag from it for $55.00–$78.00.

Custom Printed Dice Bag as a DnD Gift

This is the most personal DnD gift you can buy — more unique than embroidery (which adds a name to a standard design) and more practical than commissioned art (which hangs on a wall but doesn't come to the table).

Gift ideas that work especially well with custom printing:

  • Character portrait bag — commission art of their character, then put it on a bag they'll use every session
  • Campaign art bag — use the campaign's map, crest, or key scene
  • Inside joke bag — a meme, a catchphrase, something only the table understands
  • Matching party bags — each player gets a bag with their own character art
  • Kid's drawing bag — a child's artwork printed on a bag for a parent who plays DnD

Add a matching custom tray ($41.90) for a complete gift set with the same artwork on both pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a custom printed dice bag with my own artwork?

Yes. Send your image to GameFancy after ordering — any artwork you own the rights to. We print it on gabardine fabric and sew a dice bag from it. The result is a one-of-a-kind bag. Prices start at $55.00.

What file format do I need for a custom dice bag?

PNG or JPG. Ideal specs: 300 dpi, CMYK, 6400 × 2200 pixels. But send whatever you have — we'll review it and tell you if it works or suggest adjustments.

How long does a custom printed dice bag take?

Approximately 18 business days from order to delivery: 14 days standard production + 4 additional days for custom fabric printing. Tracking is included.

Can I get a matching custom dice tray?

Yes. Add a custom dice tray ($41.90) with the same artwork printed on it. The tray is 5.5 × 5.5 in, collapsible with snap-button corners, and has a removable hard bottom.

What can't you print?

We can't print copyrighted artwork without the rights holder's permission — Marvel, Harry Potter, Disney, licensed game art, etc. Original artwork, personal designs, photographs, and fan art you created yourself have no restrictions.

Is a custom printed dice bag a good DnD gift?

It's the most personal DnD gift available. A dice bag with someone's own character art or campaign imagery is a true one-of-one item. It's more unique than embroidery and more practical than wall art. Add a matching custom tray for a complete gift set.

How is custom printing different from embroidery?

Embroidery adds a name or short text to a standard bag design (velvet embroidery from $47). Custom printing changes the entire exterior — your full artwork covers the whole bag. They serve different purposes: embroidery personalizes, custom printing transforms.

Can I see examples of custom printed dice bags?

Yes — check our customer reviews on Etsy for photos of custom orders. Each one is unique. Past custom prints include botanical patterns, character portraits, campaign maps, and original illustrations.
