About Us

Thoughtfully made. Personally inspired.

A beautiful handbag should do more than complete an outfit. It should feel like you—your style, your personality, and the way you move through your day.

I’m Shannon, the maker behind Paw Print Design Studio. I create distinctive, handcrafted handbags and accessories for women who appreciate classic style, thoughtful details, and something a little different.

From an everyday shoulder bag to a statement piece, my goal is to bring beauty and practicality together in something you’ll love to carry.

Classic style. A personality all your own.

I’m drawn to timeless shapes, interesting textures, and details that make a bag feel special. Sometimes that means rich leather and understated hardware. Sometimes it means an unexpected print, a contrasting lining, or a playful touch.

But a handbag needs to work beautifully, too.

The pockets, closures, organization, and carrying options all matter. Those choices shape how a bag fits into your life—and they deserve just as much attention as its appearance.

That balance is at the heart of my work: distinctive design, quality materials, and practical details, thoughtfully brought together by hand.

Your handbag. Your way.

Have you ever found a bag you loved, then wished it had one more pocket, a different strap, or just a little more room?

That’s where a custom design begins.

We can talk through what matters to you: dimensions, pockets, zippers, organization, materials, and colors. Together, we’ll explore the possibilities for a handbag designed around your preferences.

Whether you have a clear vision or simply know what your current bag is missing, I’d love to hear your ideas.

The heart behind the paw

When I’m creating, my dogs are often nearby—bringing companionship, personality, and a little extra activity to the day. They’re family, and they’re part of the story behind Paw Print Design Studio.

The rainbow paw in my logo has an especially personal meaning. It honors Loki, my beloved dog who crossed the rainbow bridge in November 2021.

Loki was my shadow, my comfort, and a constant source of love. The rainbow paw is my way of carrying his memory forward—a small, colorful reminder of a bond that remains part of my life.

It’s a personal signature behind the brand, and a reminder of the love and care I want to bring to the things I create.

From my sewing table to your everyday life

When you choose a bag from Paw Print Design Studio, you’re choosing something made by a person who cares about the details—and about the woman who will carry it.

Thank you for getting to know me and the story behind my work. I hope you find something here that feels like you.
