Description

This practical little make up bag could also store small amounts of toiletries for a weekend away. Upcycled from a vintage Morris and Co curtain fabric, it has the feel of faded country house glamour. Compton was designed by Morris and Co and later printed by Sanderson with this beautiful print of rust leaves and peach tendrils. Classic autumn colours. It would make a great present for a lover of vintage William Morris textiles, for anyone going away to Uni, or as a present for Mum. The fabric has been backed onto canvas to give it some body. It measures 22 cm across, widening slightly towards the base, and the height is 15 cm. There is a 20 cm olive green zip fastening, and a boxed base makes it a little more roomy. It is lined with Linda Beard vintage printed cotton, and there is finger hook so you can hang it up and admire the print. The bag is finished off with my own embroidered name tag. Please note the pattern placement will vary with each bag. Same gorgeous fabric tho! I like to recycle where I can. Your bag will be posted out using clean, recycled packaging, and sent by Royal Mail 2nd class.

This fabulous vintage Sanderson fabric was once a curtain. With some tlc, these beautiful Morris and Co floral designs emerged, in a faded country house style.
