D. Rene & Co
Meet the Maker
Hello all and welcome to my shop, My name is Darlene and I simply adore textiles and design. We decided to start D. Rene & Co as a way to create reusable bags and totes from natural raw material like canvas and leather that could fit any lifestyle. As time went on we expanded to small kitchen textiles and home goods, accessories and stationary. I have two girls 13 years apart who always love to help me in our creative process and hope that one day they too will continue what I have built. Our double doodle Finnegan is a wonderful handful and many times you can tell he is our dog as he is always covered in thread and runs away with the fabric remnants from the design room that fall on the floor (there is never a dull moment). My adoration for scientific botanical illustrations also reflects in my art and designs. I left the corporate world behind and took a chance on starting my own business and here we are today. I put a large emphasis on quality, durability, timelessness and simplicity and I hope you like our products.
How it’s Made
Each SADE Canvas Tote is handcrafted in small batches from premium cotton canvas duck — a thick, tightly woven fabric prized for strength and durability. The material is cut, sewn, and reinforced by hand, with extra stitching at key stress points for long-lasting use.
The handles are made from heavy cotton belting, securely attached for strength and comfort. Each bag is left un-stiffened and un-framed, giving it a soft, flexible shape that naturally adjusts to your needs. Finished with a clean, minimalist aesthetic, every tote reflects D. Rene & Co’s signature craftsmanship and timeless style.
