Every commonplace book seems to acquire an entourage. The favourite pencil. Scissors. Glue stick. Little envelopes of scraps. Stickers saved for exactly the right page. Postcards, stamps, labels and mysterious bits of paper that would otherwise disappear into the bottom of a bag.
The BrocanteHome Commonplace Pouch gives all those tiny necessities somewhere beautiful to live.
Made from soft natural cotton canvas, it's printed with a delicate BrocanteHome collage of botanical drawings, paper scraps, handwritten fragments, our swallow and key. It has the feeling of an old stationery case or something discovered in the drawer of a particularly interesting woman.
At 8.3" × 7.8", it's compact without being fiddly. Large enough for pens, pencils, small scissors, glue, stickers and commonplace ephemera, yet small enough to tuck inside your Commonplace Bag and take wherever the day wanders.
Of course, it doesn't have to belong to a commonplace book at all. Use it for make-up, sewing notions, chargers, jewellery, receipts, travel bits or any of those small possessions that seem determined to scatter themselves through your life.
The cream zip keeps everything safely gathered and the wrist loop makes it easy to carry alone when you only need a few things.
A little portable cabinet of curiosities.
