Bargains of the Week …… from Penkridge Market.

I think my blog was a bit boring last week …. so instead of saving my shopping for just one day, I thought I would give you two posts for the price of one each day this week   ….. I am pretty chuffed as  I have spotted and bagged one or two gems
20p bag
This bag cost me 20p from a charity stall on Penkridge Market yesterday. I think it was a free gift for a Boots No 7 promotion.

I just love the shape and the “glass” jewel clasp, I don’t have a clue what to do with it yet ….. I wonder what fancy black rub-ons would like it? …. I am hoping Nicky (Quiksave)  http://creativeflourishes.blogspot.com/ who has the most brilliant ideas on her blog will give me a bit of inspiration.
Wooden cutlery tray Old wooden cutlery tray
From the same stall I also bought this cutlery tray for £1.50.  I just love wood and this is all jointed and stuff, I am not going to fiddle about with it, it’s too beautiful ….. I’m  just going to keep some of my pens in it.

    That cutlery tray would make a great piece of wall art if you filled each section with something - a bit like a mini printer's drawer.

    First of all WE don't think your blog was boring, and can't think why you would think that!

    As for your bag, well, you may remember what I did with my black velvet one (I put various colours of textile paint all over it) but it wasn't anything like this one. What about a collage? That could be fun! Suppose it depends on where you would be using it..

    I'll carry on thinking...

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
