Retro/Peacock/Purple


Retro


Retro Orange + Denim Pouch at Dawanda
When I was home cleaning my bedroom last week, ridding it of letters from high school and lists of boys I found attractive at 15 years of age I found the tiniest scrap of fabric that looked like it from from a curtain in the 70s. I would have normally put it in the bin, but I decided to keep it to turn it into a pouch.

I turned one of the prints into a pouch, I had to crop it because I didn't think the bottom of the bird, upside down on the reverse would work. The back is dark denim.


purple


Red and Purple Pouch at Madeit
I've had the purple fabric and red cordouroy for a while now and decided to team them up in this pouch. The purple has the lighter purple print on it, but I realise next to the darker purple it looks more like grey.

The top (retro) one is great. Glad you found a use for the scrap- well worth it.

hehehe, in my cleaning out I have yet to either read or throw out my letters from teenagehood, I am scared of what ghastly sentences I will find. Great pouches as always.

I love your little purses, Anna and I really love the red and purple one as its my favourite colour combination.
I think I may have to buy one from you really soon to become my new mini make up purse.
