We Don’t Just Carry Bags. We Carry Stories.

From family adventures to quiet journaling nights, AYRT (Are You Recording This?) was created for the memory-keepers. The artists. The moms. The ones who wear their hearts on their bags. AYRT make accessories that hold your essentials — and your favorite memories.

Why We Started

It all started with a lost pin… and too many holes.

My daughter proudly picked her first lanyard on a trip to Disney — a red, polka-dotted Minnie version. She clipped on her shiny new pins, wore them like a badge of joy… but by the end of the day, one had vanished. Gone.

A few years later, I was collecting pins myself. Rearranging them to match my memories — from trips, milestones, and little in-between moments. But every switch left a new hole in the cute bags I loved.

That’s when I realized we needed a better way to carry our memories. And AYRT was born.

These aren’t just bags. They’re canvases for your story.

Meet the Maker

Hi, I’m Amber — Artist, Chaos-Juggler, Mom, and Creative Problem-Solver.

I’ve worn a lot of hats over the years — art director, wallpaper designer, patent illustrator, web and product designer, snack mom, sideline cheerleader… you name it. I’ve created everything from catalogs and 3D visualizers to photo shoots and full-blown websites for big-name brands in design and education.

But through every role, one thing always called me back:

Storytelling.

Not just the kind in books — but the kind you live, collect, and want to remember forever. I found myself constantly reworking creative ideas and rearranging my growing pin collection to match whatever memory or mood I wanted to hold onto. Every time I did, I’d poke another hole in a bag I loved — and it finally clicked.

I wasn’t just designing products. I was designing ways to carry our stories.

AYRT (Are You Recording This?) is my journal come to life — a brand for memory-keepers, nostalgic artists, sentimental moms, and expressive explorers. If you’re someone who wants your accessories to mean something, you’re in the right place.
