Description

Cornwall on your purse ! This vintage tea towel featuring Polperro harbour in Cornwall was perfect for creating some little pouches, storage or make up bags. This one features a lovely illustration of the outer harbour on the front, and the harbour entrance on the back. These little bags are always useful for organising your ruck sac, for storing your buds or headphones or for your holiday money! They make a great present for a friend going away to Uni, as a present for Dad or anyone who loves or is pining for this part of Cornwall. The teatowel is backed with cotton to strengthen it, but it is still a soft little bag. It measures 17 cm by 14 cm and has a handy hook on one corner. It is lined with a hot air balloon print in cotton, and closes with a 16 cm brown zip. It is finished off with my embroidered name tag, and a covered button on the front corner. There is a matching purse to this also in my shop right now. Please wash on a short, cool cycle and leave to dry naturally. Your order will be wrapped in clean, recycled wrapping and posted out by Royal Mail 2nd class.

I love finding old teatowels at the car boot. Their bright and breezey illustrations are a reminder of a lovely spot once visited on holiday, or the beautiful place where you come from. See its little matching purse also in my shop right now.
