Please note before ordering:
The blue polka-dot fabric used on the lower half of the makeup bag may change depending on my fabric supplier’s availability. The exact pattern might vary, but I always make sure the quality, texture, and the fun blue-dot look stay consistent.
I’ve always wanted to make a cosmetic bag that I could use forever — not just something practical, but something that feels emotionally right every time I pick it up. This is that bag for me.
I don’t enjoy hyper-organized makeup bags with too many compartments. To me, they often add clutter, not clarity. What I really want is a pouch that holds everything I need, feels good in my hands, and looks like something I’d want to see every single day.
The fabric is what started it. A deep red Japanese cotton featuring black cats in all sorts of relaxed, playful poses — about seven or eight in total. Every pouch is cut a little differently, but I always make sure there’s at least one full cat on each side. I paired it with an indigo blue woven polka-dot fabric at the bottom. The inside is lined with natural linen — soft, breathable, and beautiful in its own quiet way. The zipper is one of my favorite details: a premium YKK that glides smoothly and closes with a soft click, making the daily routine feel unexpectedly pleasant.
This pouch is roomy enough for makeup, cables, stationery, or anything you want to keep together, without ever feeling bulky. For me, it’s a daily object that offers both function and feeling — something simple, well-made, and a little bit joyful.

Frequently Asked Questions ❓
Why Made by Frey?
Why Made by Frey?
I think you'll find something a little different here — even if you can't quite put your finger on it at first. That's because a lot of the care goes into the parts you don't immediately see.
Many of my fabrics require cutting each panel one by one to make sure the prints and patterns line up just right. You won't find generic templates or factory patterns here — even the simplest pouch uses the best zippers and carefully chosen materials that elevate the whole piece.
I select fabrics and hardware with a lot of intention. Most materials are premium — YKK zippers, designer prints, and hand-woven textiles that are beautiful but expensive. If it adds quality and feeling, I choose it.
Each item is handmade in small batches by me and a small group of women artisans — many of them moms — who sew with patience and care. We test, adjust, and refine designs based on real feedback, paying attention to the little things that make a piece feel warm, personal, and alive.
These are small treasures meant to be used and loved every day — pieces that bring quiet joy and thoughtful craftsmanship into daily life.
Should I wait for a sale?
Should I wait for a sale?
Honestly, I wouldn't.
I rarely run big holiday sales or deep discounts. Handmade work and good materials already cost a lot, so I price my pieces as fairly as I can all year round.
I also work with many limited fabrics. Once I use up a fabric, I may never be able to find it again, which means some designs won't be restocked.
If you've found something you love, I'd recommend getting it while it's’s still available.

Will my item look exactly like the photos?
Will my item look exactly like the photos?
Every photo on my website is of the real product—I don't use AI-generated images or heavily edited renders.
I always try to photograph each piece as accurately as possible, though lighting and different screens may cause slight differences in color.
Not every handmade item varies in the same way. Pieces made primarily by machine sewing—such as fabric pouches and bags—will look very close to the photos.
However, items with hand-stitched details, such as embroidered faces or expressions, are never completely identical. We carefully sew each one by hand, so while the overall look stays true to the design, every piece has its own subtle personality.
Can you gift wrap my order?
Can you gift wrap my order?
Yes. Just leave a note at checkout if your order is a gift.
I'm always happy to include a handwritten message at no extra charge. Simply add your note at checkout, and I'll make sure it's tucked into the package with care.
Why are so many of your designs about cats?
Why are so many of your designs about cats?
Haha — of course I love them. But it's more than that: cats remind me to stay true to myself, to rest when needed, and to move with quiet confidence. I also love other animals, but making cat pouches and charms captivates me — I want to be the best at it in the world.
Do you make everything yourself?
Do you make everything yourself?
The shop has grown, and so has the team. I'm still hands-on with every step — design, fabric selection, and quality control — and I work with a small, dedicated team: two sewists, three hand-stitchers, and one crocheter/knitter — and growing.
Can I see my item before it ships?
