bailey doesn't bark.









bailey doesn't bark is the creation of re jin lee, "a contemporary wares and paper goods company." originally from brazil, re jin lee left brazil with a bachelor of arts in fashion degree and headed for new york.

"inspired by her own life, memories and dreams, re jin wanted to create simple, yet humorous designs on functional products. because home wares are one of the most practical essential items for everyday life, she chose it as her medium of artistic expression. currently, home wares serves as the foundation for bailey doesn’t bark, but since then, the company has expanded to also include goods."

"similar to selecting fabrics and constructing patterns, re jin thoroughly enjoys the process of creating artwork and selecting wares. both require a balance that has to be carefully thought out to create beautiful and functional products. she aims to create art that can be enjoyed in everyday life."

"bailey doesn’t bark is based in new york, ny. where re jin resides with her most loyal companion and the company’s namesake – her well-mannered dog (who doesn’t bark), bailey."

i was drawn to the simplicity, the whimsy, the crisp and stark color contrasts as well as the fun re jin has with her art, and her final products. her etsy shop is a must stop while bopping around on etsy's vast site. every now and then someone on etsy shines, stands out from the others and re jin lee and bailey doesn't bark is most definitely one of those someones. enjoy!
