Small Stuff Storage







These little totes are great for makeup or jewelry, especially the drawstring one since it's got inside pockets all around.  They're both durable and have already been washed so they won't shrink.  They look just as good fresh out of the dryer and crinkled and they do here all pressed and ready to find homes.

Retro , Vintage, Bark Cloth Fabric Bucket

My Aunt Marie used to have curtains made of bark cloth, so seeing this piece in the old fabric store near my home brought back memories.  I just had to try it out on a fabric bucket and am quite pleased with the results.  I lined it with a neutral colored cotton twill and put pockets (6 to be exact) all around the inside edges (or outside if you reverse it). It's big, will fit 3 or 4 large rolled bath towels, or lots and lots of fruits and veggies from the market.  It's in my Etsy store now. 












An Apron

I've been playing around with this one and the bodice came out a little too narrow for an adult woman, but a young gal would look 'mahvelous' in it 'nest pas?  It's made of canvas so it's heavy and I love both sides and the fact that it's reversible.  It's in my ETSY store.  Please send me a note if you have any questions about the details.
