In the Studio with All Hands: From Leather Planters To Bucket Bags

We love tucking a little art into the feed here on TCM - and some our favorite accessories definitely qualify. We loved exploring J. Hannah's cool California jewelry studio, Tiro Tiro's light and airy Oakland workbenches - and when we came across Jennifer Stilwell of All Hands, we wanted to add her beautiful leatherwork to the mix. Although Stilwell's geometric, structured bucket bags were what first drew us to her work, when we saw these gorgeous leather planters we had to know more about her work. We learned that Jennifer has a passion for indigenous artisans and has traveled the world apprenticing for leather craftsman from South America to Europe. We love getting inside the daily routines of the artisans we admire. Below, Jennifer talks about the things that keep her inspired as she builds a brand that will one day support the indigenous craftsmen and women's collectives she so admires.
