So I experimented at the weekend with other motifs. After much research I’ve settled on the lock and key motifs with Celtic swirls on the strap sections.

Any suggestions for other colours or fabrics? This little hold-all has a hinged opening like a Gladstone bag (Drs bag) so you can fill it up with ease.
I’m thinking of all kinds of combinations here! 😂
