Order now for bespoke pen wraps & pouches!

I'm going pro! I have set up an online webform for pen wrap orders, and continue to work on photographing my entire fabric stash. It's really exciting to be able to let you choose exactly what you want from my fabrics to create your own personalised product - I can even adjust sizing around your collection of individual pens!

If you want a custom pen wrap for yourself, please click on the tabs at the top of this site or from the links below to review the information pages and access the order form.

• Information on products - what I am making, what I can make, and how they're made.
• How to order your own custom pen pouch or wrap.
• Gallery of fabric swatches available - continually updated. Also viewable as story view.
• Online order form to submit your request.

I am going to be exploring new product options this weekend, so should have exciting new things coming here soon. I sell prototypes at a discount so these are a great opportunity to get the first-ever item at a nice price! 

In addition to making custom orders I will continue to create various combinations myself, and already have some for sale on this blog. If you have any questions, or wish to discuss potential for a completely new product that you need, please drop me a line!

Photographed with M805s and Vanishing Point to give indication of size and fit. These pens fit completely within the pouch without poking out the top, so are completely protected from scratches and wear during transit and storage.

The 3-pen pouch

Following the success of my pen wraps yesterday, I set about working on a smaller design, a tight, tidy little 3-pen pouch to suit a core set of EDC pens.

Why three? Well I think a 3-pen team is a great number to carry for general work and daily duty, giving enough scope for colour and nib options without the burden and risk of more pens in your bag. Although I used to carry more I cut back to taking just three into work with me as I found that I simply didn't use them all, and was just exposing them to increase risk of theft or damage without due cause.

Three pens does not warrant a wrap, but the linear pouch format is perfect. The size and flat shape of a small pouch fits well into jacket chest pockets, flat pockets within bags and briefcases, and can easily slip into a flat or round pencil case for added protection. Given the simple design of this pouch it is also a great little item that I can readily run up in half the time of a wrap, and sell at a more affordable price for buyers seeking an EDC solution.

The prototype turned out quite well, and I immediately integrated some necessary refinements into the second iteration of this design, which turned out perfect and immediately ready for sale. Happy! Now I just need to make one for myself, and sell the bulky Visconti two-pen case that I have been using..
