The Home of........ Alice of Forestbound


 Isn't this home just so beautiful and tranquil looking? Everything is just so simple, but just so gorgeous. That black lamp in the second photo really has won my heart!

The home belongs to Alice owner of my latest favorite discovery Forestbound. Forestbound make really beautiful bags and T-shirts....


Forestbound is a small operation based out of Fringe Union in Somerville, Massachusetts. We do it all ourselves here in the studio - the designing, cutting, sewing, shipping .. it all takes place under one roof. 

We used found and salvaged textiles to create our unique line of tote bags and carryalls, Forestbound Originals. We do this in hopes of bringing a piece of history back into the spotlight with every new item we create. Many hours are spent scouring the Northeast for the storied textiles that we use in our bags. And many more hours are dedicated to thoughtfully and carefully reworking these materials into something new you can use every single day.

Our ESCAPE Canvas Utility Bag line is inspired by the many perfectly worn-in, vintage canvas tool bags that we have uncovered at flea markets and estate sales throughout the years. With this line we hope to create timeless, go-to pieces that pay tribute to all those beautiful canvas bags from days of old.
