Need a wallet that will force you to minimize what you carry?

The design for this wallet came out of frustration with how many different things I had to carry to go anywhere. As a human, I tend to fill the allotted space in my purse or wallet to max capacity. The idea here is that by minimizing the available space in a wallet, it forces you to prioritize what you need so that you only carry the bare essentials to leave your house: keys, ID, and currency. No keychains, no forgotten membership cards, no overstuffed coin pocket full of pennies. Cell phone is optional.

I made this key/card holder, honestly, as an afterthought for a fashion collection about 3 years ago, but it turned out to be the most useful thing I made that year. I’ve used it daily and it’s still as good as day one.

Reason #1 that I love working with leather: it ages so gracefully!
