Meet Kate
The maker and dreamer behind Modern Makerie is me, Kate. I’ve always been a creator, whether at the sewing machine, in the kitchen, or wherever an idea takes me. Every bag is thoughtfully handmade with love and care, ensuring that each piece is as unique as the person it’s made for. I craft each item with a passion for sustainability, quality, and the little details that make life beautiful.



the tiny shop
The MM shop started in the top floor of our home in Louisville, Ky, where it grew over the first five years. In late 2021, we began to look for a new place for our family business to expand. Until we find it, our shop's temporary home is in the basement of Jonathan's mother's home.
Let customers speak for us
from 446 reviewsI am so happy with my custom everyday canvas tote! Meadow exterior, canvas interior, interior pocket a combination of meadow & canvas. Exceptional quality! Kate always makes custom ordering so easy!
I was searching for a custom luggage packing solution and these were it! Absolutely beautiful and incredible quality. Thank You!
Kate did a wonderful job on my custom bags. I was really apprehensive about choosing fabrics and designs for a set of bags but she was so patient and helpful. The bags turned out adorable and I absolutely love them. They are high quality and worth every dime I spent.
So happy Kate was able to shorten the slim & add canvas interior. The short slim is perfect for my eyewear!
Love my wristlet! The card slots are a huge plus! Customer service was amazing and super helpful with all my questions. Super quick with responses also. I was really impressed with the shipping time also! Definitely can't wait to order again soon.
I am absolutely in love with my tote bag! It is even better than I thought it would be when I ordered. It was super easy to communicate with Kate about what I wanted and she was extremely helpful with all my questions. Gave me lots of options to choose from and honest opinions. It was also quick shipping! I already can't wait to order again soon!
As a busy Mama of 2, I know she’s going to love it & get great use out of it 🥰

I had the custom mini travel bags made with canvas interior. Using these to hold gift cards along with other items suggested by Kate. She makes custom ordering so easy!
So many uses for the everyday travel bag! Currently using this one for charger cords. I had this custom bag made with canvas interior. Very nice quality!
These pouches are fabulous quality! The surprise girl fabric is adorable for a 8-10yo girl. Suggestion - add an age option, though I realize how difficult that could be. Love every pouch and bag I've ordered. You won't regret an order!
My first purchase was at St James and I was so impressed with Katy and her husband…what a great team! I decided to get a new tote in a fun color, and I contacted MuM via chat. Again…fabulous experience. Quick to respond and I was given a ton of options to choose from. Customer service is top notch and I LOVE LOVE LOVE my totes! It fits everything you’ll need…PS…buy the organizer that goes inside! 💜💜💜
Kate has always been a pleasure to work with. I’ve been a repeat customer for years and recently asked her to make a custom tablet sleeve for me and it arrived even better than I could have imagined! It’s beautiful and offers so much protection for my tablet. Thanks Kate!!
I have the Mini Maxx in vinyl interior & canvas interior. It’s the perfect in between size! Kate makes it so easy to place a custom order!
