100% sustainable Cotton case with Zips and Thread from recycled plastics

Add a bit more colour and pattern to your everyday with the new range of pencil and cosmetic cases. These standard pencil cases are such a practical size and perfect for bringing a bit of colour, pattern, and organisation to your home, desk or handbag.  

Yes, you can neatly store your stationery in it to keep bits together, but it’s also a great size for some makeup or toiletry essentials in, any medication you need to carry around with you, or even small electricals. 

Featuring our Flight of Herons pattern, in 3 different colourways which are new for Spring 2025, these items represent the re-introduction of textiles back to Holchester Designs as I’ve found a collaborator to make them who values sustainable practices just like me.  

The pattern was originally inspired by some research I was doing into migrating birds (my daughter had asked a question!) and images I saw of the flocks flying in formation.  Using my original hand-drawn sketch, drawn in a style inspired by wire-jewellery, these motifs were refined digitally before turning them into a repeat pattern.  

These are printed in Scotland on sustainable cotton, and then handmade (also in Scotland) in small batches to ensure minimum fabric waste.  The YKK zip is really sturdy, made from recycled plastic and with a leather zip pull for ease of opening.  Plus the thread used is also from recycled plastic and the case is fully lined for maximum practicality.  It will be posted out to you packaged simply with a recycled and recyclable tag, before being wrapped and posted out in our standard recycled/recyclable plastic-free packaging. 

Each colourway is available in three different sizes of case - Slim, Standard Pencil Case and Zip Pouch.

Why not create your own gift set, mix and match colours and sizes in this pattern, or add some stationery too.  If you’re working with a bird theme the Brighton Birds and Paradise patterns are the place to go, or alternatively the Moonlit Moths is a similar style of print that complements it so well.  And the colours of the Deco Delights stationery range also looks *chefs kiss*. 

Launching just in time for Mother’s Day, this would be a great Mother’s Day gift or an alternative to an Easter Egg if chocolate isn’t her thing.
