The Brand: Mother/daughter team Shelly and Mary Klein founded k studio in 2004 with a clear direction: To share Shelly’s knack of delicate linear patterns and her ever-growing menagerie of richly evocative characters with as many people as possible. Based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, all of the k studio products are still made in small-batch and with great care and exact finishing. Staying true to quality and a consistent design style, k studio remains fresh and fun 20 years later. 

Description: A great size for dropping into a larger bag, this linen zip pouch is a lovely gift for yourself or a friend. The linen breaks in so nicely and the designs are always cheerful to see in the day to day. We love the stitching as it tells a story from the sketchbook of the artist, Shelly Klein, but also has a child-like quality that could harken back to anyone’s early drawings.

Details: 4 x 7 inches, flax linen with zipper, machine-sewn multi-colored design, tiny black polka dot fabric on interior

A Note From Erika: I use one of these—it makes me smile when I pull it out of my purse.
