creative passport holder/wallet shop?

Alt title: ALL THESE DAMN COINS. Apologies for not being able to think of a better title, but that’s about it. In Japan, they used to have all kinds of these little shops with random artsy wallets & variations on them around the design colleges. I’d like to find something similar to buy some stuff to tame the mess in my pocket, or even get some things custom made. Leather, recycled TEVA, cloth, whatever, all good, number of options matters more.

Since moving to Bangkok, things that have been added to my life include:
1) All these coins. It’s as bad as Hong Kong. Glad y’all actually have good coins and use them, but I gotta carry these around. I go out for the day and I come home wearing tambourine pants with all the coins in my pockets. Finding keys is annoying. Knowing what coins I have so I can spend them is annoying.
2) All these bank notes. There are 7x 100b and 9x 20b notes in my pocket right now, along with one sorry 50b note. I tried to keep the broken change folded up in my front pocket, but it gets messy. Coins get in the bills and fly out when I pull the cash out. It’s chaos.
3) A million keycards. Condo gate, condo downstairs door. BTS card, MRT card, this and that membership card, probably 8 new cards I use regularly, and there are more I don’t.
4) Passport & other papers. I had these before, but I’m just getting set up with life stuff and my passport needs to come with me sometimes, and obvs if I travel I want a an easy folder for passport/ticket/etc.
5) Keys. Of course there are 9 million keys too, most on those flimsy half keyrings.

Obviously 1 wallet is not going to hold all that unless I’m loopy. A decent selection of “slim” wallets would be ideal to browse on person to find a few that make sense together, including a passport holder ang a key wallet.

Thanks in advance if anyone knows.
