These adorably [felted wool coin purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-leather-purses) by Napkitten are so tiny that they barely take up any room in your purse or backpack. The maker of these purses clearly has a love for animals. Birds in particular, as you can see it’s the predominant theme for this collection.

There seems to be a high demand on these creations, as they sell out quite fast on the [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floof-snuggle-sack-and-floor-pillow) store. The creator also takes [custom orders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gossamer-gear), so if you want a specific color or design, it can be done. Working with felted wool is time consuming, however the end results are remarkable.

These beautiful creations by Napkitten are definitely eye-catching and quite distinctive from most commercial coin purses. This would make for an awesome gift.
