The Brand: Tracey Tanner works out of her Brooklyn, New York studio to create these useful and beautiful pieces. Doing this work for over a decade, Tracey continues to add to her offerings each year as she finds textures and colors she is excited about. 

Description: While pencils and pens are a go-to for this bag, it is also wonderful as a small clutch, a make-up pouch or a place to keep all of the small bits that fall out into your tote bag. Of note: it can fit some sizes of phones.

Details: leather, 3 1/2 x 9 ½ inches flat, zipper closure

A Note From Erika: These hold a full unsharpened pencil as well as a long makeup brush so it’s good for longer flat things that you might want to carry around. When I travel, I load up this pouch with small bills for tipping that way I don’t have to search around.
