LET’S GET TO WORK
ZIP POUCH
A bag to carry within a bag – we all have them! This small zip pouch is just the thing for keeping your lip balm, make-up, tablets or keys easy to find. The freehand quilting and faux leather handle elevate this from your basic pouch too, so it’d make a great pressie.
PHONE WRISTLET
A phone case that you can store your most-used cards in is the ultimate practical accessory! Carry this fuss-free holder on your wrist when you’re popping out for lunch or for a walk and give your shoulders a rest from carrying a big bag.
LAPTOP CASE
With hybrid working being a reality for a lot of us now, a laptop case to take to and from the office has become a necessity. This padded design will not only keep your laptop safe when you’re travelling, the faux leather tie and simple quilting make it super stylish, too.
PENCIL CASE
This flat pencil case is the perfect shape for tucking in your bag so you can take your essential stationery with you wherever you go. You can stash your favourite loyalty cards in there, too, to make sure every trip to your local coffee shop counts!
CABLE TIDY
Whether it’s your headphones or your phone charger, no good day begins with digging around in your bag to find tangled cables when you need them most! Banish knotted cables for good with this fun, quick-sew cable tidy. Sew a few extras to keep your desk tidy, too.
TOTE BAG
Carry your essentials in style with this practical tote bag. A boxed base makes all the difference when trying to keep a busy bag organised, so you can confidently stash your laptop, notepad, book, water bottle and lunch away knowing that they’ll travel well.
