I made the original First Aid Purse for my asthma inhaler, allergy medication and headache tablets - a smart little bag that would be easy to find in my handbag and small enough for pockets - it occured to me visitors to my shop would find them useful too! They are made from remnants of canvas, drill and calico leftover from making my aprons and toiles, the beautiful zips are custom made.

Full description

A mini First Aid Purse to keep headache tablets and inhaler organised and easy to find in your handbag or pocket. They make genuinely useful gifts for friends, parents and the 'tricky-to-buy-for' with the added benefit of being eco-conscious as they are made from repurposed fabric remnants.

As featured in COUNTRY LIVING MAGAZINE (July 2026)

I originally designed the ochre canvas First Aid Purse for myself - a cute way to keep my asthma inhaler, allergy meds and headache tablets all in one place when I'm out and about.
