FRANKIE
June/July issue, p.14, 2006

Before making (quite possibly) the cutest pencil cases in the world, Louise Jennison and Gracia Haby were shovelling dirt. To support their collaborative, limited edition artists' books, they were running a small gardening and odd job business. Although they tossed the pitchforks soon after, they kept the original company name, hammer & daisy, and started creating journals, pouches and pencil cases. Our favourites, the pencil cases, are lined with dark chocolate fabric and matching zips. Some feature handsewn buttons and fabric remnants, ensuring each pencil case is unique. All this love for $28. Anyone for the first day of school?
