The Karen Behind Every Bag: The Story of Timeless Craftsmanship

Hi, I’m Karen, the founder and passionate creator behind Karens Bags. Let me share with you the journey that has shaped my dream into reality, a story that began when I was just a teenager.

 

Young Beginnings with Grand Ambitions

 

At the young age of 16, I began crafting my first bag in my small workshop at home, inspired by the materials I found at my grandmas home.

 

What started as a hobby quickly grew into a passion. Each bag I made felt like a little piece of me, and I couldn’t wait to share them with others.

Italy: The Craft That Changed My Life

 

Although I had always loved designing and stichting, I decided to pursue a business degree, believing it would be the most practical path.

 

But, as is often the case with passion, it couldn't be contained. It was a trip to Rome, Italy, a city renowned for its rich leather-making tradition, that reignited my love for craftsmanship.

 

The city’s artistic spirit, its streets lined with history and romance, overwhelmed me. 

 

Rome was where I fell in love all over again—not just with the city but with the art of jewelry handcrafting bags. 

 

The moment I touched my first handcrafted leather bag in a boutique, I knew I was destined to create bags that would make people feel special.

 

Determined to delve deeper, I traveled across Europe, studying under master craftsmen who taught me the age-old techniques that now define my creations.

Building a Dream from Scratch

 

Returning to Los Angeles, life brought love and partnership in the form of my husband, and together, we embarked on building my dream

 

With little more than determination and a love for my craft, I opened my first boutique at 28, located in a quiet corner of my city.

 

Those early years were tough—juggling family life with the demands of building a business, especially as my daughters grew up.

 

But each challenge made me more committed. 

 

With every bag that left my workshop, I felt a sense of pride.
