The La Tela Collection was created for people who love to draw beyond the studio or desk.
These compact zippered leather art supply cases keep a small sketchbook or notebook, pencils and other drawing tools together in one organized case that is easy to take with you.
Unlike a larger sketchbook organizer, La Tela works as a compact portable drawing case: zip it closed, pick it up and your essential sketching tools are ready to go.
It is easy to take to a café, art class, park, trip or simply keep in a bag as a personal creative kit.
Pencils & Sketchbook Together in One Case
The central idea behind La Tela is simple: your pencils and notebook do not need to travel separately.
The interior provides organized storage for drawing tools, while a small sketchbook or notebook slides vertically into its own compartment from the top.
This makes the notebook easy to remove when you want to make a quick sketch or write down an idea, and just as easy to return when you are finished.
Depending on the model and the way you organize it, the case can hold:
- pencils;
- colored pencils;
- pens;
- markers;
- slim brushes;
- an eraser;
- a sharpener;
- a small sketchbook or notebook;
- other compact creative tools.
This makes La Tela more than a pencil case. It is a practical pencil and sketchbook organizer for creative work on the go.
A Compact Creative Kit You Can Zip Up and Take Anywhere
One of the main advantages of the collection is its compact format.
You do not need to carry a large artist portfolio or a separate bag when all you want is a small set of essential drawing tools.
La Tela is designed for moments when you want to keep a portable creative setup close at hand and be ready to draw almost anywhere.
The zip-around closure helps keep everything together, while the case itself can easily fit into:
- a backpack;
- a tote bag;
- a travel bag;
- car storage;
- luggage.
Selected configurations can also be used with a shoulder strap when a more independent carrying option is preferred.
Designed for Sketching on the Go
La Tela is particularly well suited to people who enjoy making quick sketches away from the studio.
It can be useful:
- at a café;
- while traveling;
- in a park;
- during an art class;
- for urban sketching;
- at a museum;
- during a plein-air outing;
- on everyday trips away from home.
Open one compact case and both your paper and drawing tools are already together.
That is why travel sketching is one of the key ideas behind the La Tela Collection.
More Than a Traditional Pencil Case
La Tela can certainly be used as a premium leather pencil case, but its construction offers more flexibility than a traditional pencil pouch.
Because it also includes dedicated space for a notebook or sketchbook, it can work as a:
- sketching organizer;
- portable art supply case;
- drawing kit organizer;
- pencil and notebook case;
- creative travel organizer.
One person may use it for watercolor pencils and a sketchbook.
Another may organize a notebook, pens and a few everyday work tools inside.
For an art student or a young creative, it can also become a durable and distinctive case for drawing supplies used at school or in art classes.
For Artists, Students & Young Creatives
La Tela is not intended only for professional artists.
Its compact format works well for:
- professional artists;
- illustrators;
- designers;
- art students;
- teenagers;
- children who love drawing;
- hobby sketchers;
- people who keep visual journals.
For a younger artist, it can become a first personal drawing kit that feels truly their own.
For an adult, it can be a compact organizer that is easy to keep nearby and take anywhere.
Personalized Leather Art Cases
La Tela cases can be personalized.
Depending on the model and leather, personalization may include:
- name;
- initials;
- monogram;
- short text;
- logo;
- approved custom artwork.
This works particularly well for gifts because the case remains practical while becoming a personal item made for a specific owner.
Personalization is optional. The exterior can also remain clean and unbranded, allowing the leather, stitching and construction to define the design.
Different Leather Colors
A La Tela case does not have to look the same for every artist.
We can work with a variety of leather colors, from classic brown, black and green to brighter and more expressive shades.
This is especially appropriate for artist products.
One customer may prefer a quiet, understated organizer, while another may choose bright pink, yellow, green or another color that reflects their creative personality.
Leather color can also be selected as part of a personalized gift project.
A Gift for Someone Who Loves to Draw
La Tela works well as a gift for artists, sketchers and art students because it is more than a decorative object.
It is something the recipient can actually use.
It can be a thoughtful gift for:
- a birthday;
- Christmas;
- graduation;
- the beginning of art school;
- a new creative hobby;
- travel;
- another personal occasion.
It is particularly useful for someone who already carries pencils and a notebook but does not yet have one organized case for both.
For Art Classes & Creative Events
The compact format also makes La Tela interesting for small group and creative projects.
Possible uses include:
- drawing workshops;
- art schools;
- children's creative events;
- artist gatherings;
- branded creative programs.
A group can share one color or design concept while individual names or other personalization are added for each participant.
For larger projects, we can also discuss custom colors, branding and other collaboration formats.
For Art Stores & Creative Retailers
La Tela can also be a good fit for art stores and specialty creative retailers.
It sits between a traditional pencil case and a larger professional artist organizer, giving customers a compact premium option for sketching and creative travel.
For wholesale or retail projects, we can discuss:
- selected models;
- leather colors;
- branding;
- exclusive variations;
- seasonal collections.
How La Tela Differs from Our Other Artist Organizers
Mureli Workshop has several artist collections, each designed around a different creative routine.
La Tela is a compact zippered art supply case for pencils, drawing tools and a small sketchbook or notebook.
Our La Vita Collection focuses more strongly on the sketchbook itself and larger refillable drawing formats.
Our Leather Pencil Wraps use a roll format designed primarily for pencils, markers and brushes without a full zippered case construction.
La Tela occupies its own place between them:
more organized than a pencil roll, more compact than a large sketchbook organizer.
Made for Small Creative Moments
Not every creative moment requires a complete studio setup.
Sometimes all you need is a few favorite pencils, a small sketchbook and half an hour to yourself.
That is exactly where we see La Tela.
Compact.
Zippered.
Organized inside.
Ready to travel with you.
Zip it. Take it with you. Draw wherever inspiration finds you.
