I started with a beautiful gold coloured vintage 1960s spring clasp frame that I found in a country op shop with the original David Jones price tag still attached! I've used a groovy large red vintage buckle as the centrepiece of this bag, and selected complimentary fabrics to surround it. The back panel is a luxurious vintage velvet that I rescued from a "rags" box in a local op shop. Can you believe someone put it in there? It definitely deserved a second chance!

The lining is an upcycled vintage paisley cotton quilt cover. I've included an internal pocket to keep small items separate. Outer fabrics are backed with medium weight interfacing to provide structure.

The bag is firmly screwed into the frame and measures approximately 28 x 24 x 4.5 cm. Metal bag frame is approximately 23 cm long. Metal chain handle is approximately 36 cm in length.
