Monkey Stuff

Kevin is a fountain of knowledge and a maker in the truest sense of the word — his workshop is proof of that. Really, it’s every craftsman’s dream. We’d live there if he let us. Once a month, we pick a Saturday to meet up for a sewing project. It’s our favorite excuse to hang out, make stuff, and flip through the living encyclopedia that is Kevin’s brain.

He first reached out to us in 2024 to help design a messenger bag for himself, and a backpack for his daughter (both of which you can now find on MonkeyStuff.com). That collaboration kicked off an ongoing creative partnership. With his clay expertise and our bag know-how, we teamed up to design a ceramic tool bag we were so excited about, we decided to share it with the wider community.

Since then, the Monkey Stuff collection has grown into a full line of tools and accessories for ceramicists. We even took it on the road to the 59th annual NCECA (National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts) conference, where we got to dive headfirst into the ceramics world and meet a whole new community of makers.
