Originally intended to carry a girls makeup or used as an overnight case,
this little number had been through the test of time.
When I spied it, the inside lining was in sorry shape and the plastic handle missing,
but not to worry the forlorn piece had some redeeming values.
The size and shape was perfect for my needs
and with a little effort and ingenuity it was given a new life.
Vintage flower stamps where decoupaged to the outside
to perk up the lack luster color and a new leather handle added.
A bright plaid lining replaced the faded, stained, and torn satin lining
and a velcroed pocket with pouches was fashioned and added in to hold paint brushes.
It's now ready for traveling...
I'm thrilled to have Cloth Paper Studio Magazine share the post with their readers!
