h is a personal adventure. After two decades in corporate marketing (and years of making bags by moonlight for family and friends), I’m charting a new course. Equipped with little more than the bare essentials – a pocketful of ideas, a pair of crafty hands, and some sewing skills I learned from my grandmother – I’m pursuing the creative passion that brings me joy: making bags that bring others joy. Aside from motherhood – and perhaps dark chocolate – I can think of no greater satisfaction than to present someone a beautiful, functional handmade bag in which they can carry the things they adore.

h is about handcrafted bags for the adventures of life. From concept to construction, every bag is born in my Little Rock studio and crafted by the impeccable kay
dee
h team. Because we genuinely love what we do, each bag is infused with the care and enthusiasm of its maker. We use the highest-quality natural and sustainable materials we can find, such as vegetable-tanned leather, waxed cotton canvas and organic cotton and hemp. As a result, kay

h bags are gentle on the environment but plenty tough to handle the demands of your busy life.
In the same way I used scraps of fabric to create my very first bags, we are all stitching together the life we want. And as trite as it may sound, I believe a good bag can make life easier. That’s why kay
dee
h bags are meant to speak to the restless spirit in all of us . . . the adventurer who needs a faithful bag on her shoulder.
As a working mom, I’ve discovered that launching a business is even more challenging than I anticipated, but – as with virtually any labor of love – it’s in equal measure more rewarding. Following many months of hard work, I am pleased to introduce the flagship line of kay
dee
h bags. I hope you’ll find the bags are fun, durable and perfectly imperfect, just like every good woman I know!
Curious about the name? Well, kay
dee
h is a twist on my initials. A personal name for a personal dream.
