What I Spent My Pocket Money On....

I love getting a little pocket money to spend. For me, there is nothing quite as nice as having some spends in ones pocket, and then the search for a pretty buy to bring a smile to my face. I had the grand sum of £3 to spend....what would I find?

I saw this and I thought yes, perhaps....


I thought it was rather pretty....


I adored the beautiful handle....


Oh yes I was falling in love....


I had made up my mind, I would be bringing her home with me, and soon found all my £3 pocket money spent. I think she was well worth it don't you? I don't know how old she is, certainly not modern, but I truly love her vintage charm....


Now all I need to decide, is what to put in it....

    You need to line her in beautiful vintage fabric with a ribbon drawstring, she will then be even more beautiful

    My mum has one just like this! And she still uses it for its intended purpose - shopping! I always remember being allowed to take it to school with my home ec ingredients in it, with a tea towel over the top :-)

    What a bargain!!! It reminds me of the baskets girls used to carry their cookery ingredients to school in. You used to be able to get elasticated plastic floral covers for them too. (Now wouldn't that look great in Cath Kidston?!!!!)
