Why We Design for Faith: The Story Behind Our Faith & Devotion Collection

Nguyet Minh Coleman

Some collections are born from market research. This one was born from a moment that changed everything.

When my child came into the world, something shifted in me that I didn't expect. In the overwhelming, exhausting, breathtaking newness of motherhood, I found myself turning toward faith in a way I never had before. Children are gifts from the Lord — and holding mine for the first time, I knew that with a certainty that went straight to my bones.

That experience became the seed of everything you'll find in our Faith & Devotion collection.

From a Personal Journey to a Purpose-Driven Collection

I didn't set out to build a Christian product line. I set out to live my faith more intentionally — and I found that the right objects helped me do that. A prayer card on the nightstand. A tote bag that carried my Bible to Mass. A book sleeve that protected the devotional I returned to again and again in those quiet early morning hours.

These small things became anchors. And I wanted to make them for others.

At The Bean Workshop, we believe we are called to be instruments — to spread the good news in whatever way we can. For us, that means creating beautiful, meaningful products that help people live their faith out loud, in the everyday moments that matter most.

What We Make & Why It Matters

Our Prayer Cards & Bookmarks are designed to be daily touchstones of faith — tuck one into a book, frame it on a shelf, or gift it to someone walking their own faith journey. From the Hail Mary to the Guardian Angel, each card is a small but powerful reminder of who we belong to.

Our Book & Kindle Sleeves were made for the reader whose Bible or devotional is their most treasured possession — because it deserves to be protected in something as beautiful as what's inside.

And our tote bags are for the woman who carries her faith with her everywhere — to Mass, to Bible study, to the quiet corner of a coffee shop where she opens her devotional before the day begins.

Made with Love. Rooted in Faith.

Every item in this collection is made with the same care and intention that went into the moment that inspired it. We are a small, passionate team, and we pour that passion into every stitch, every print, every design.

Children are gifts from the Lord. And we are grateful every day for the gift that led us here — to you, to this work, to the privilege of being a small instrument of the Good News.

We hope something in our Faith & Devotion collection speaks to your heart the way faith spoke to ours.
