Take a look at this for a bag with a difference. Made from drinks cans. This ladies blog is worth a read, she is very thrifty, I think she has posted on this site before, probably on Old style. S_Michaels she is from Lincolnshire.

The scrapstore in Newark on Trent had crimpers in their craft section ...only small ones at £1.38 !

Hi QueenBee, didn't know there was a scrapstore in Newark til I saw your post, went there today and got quite a bit of "stuff". Well worth a visit everyone!
