This is a woven 'mengkuang' handbag that one of
my friends gave me as a gift  quite some time ago.  It came in a set of  3 and  this was the largest one.

While spring cleaning my storeroom, I  spotted it in a corner of my shelf, looking like Plain Jane.

So what better to do than to give it a go?

Ps: It's quite a handy bag to dump in all our personal stuff - from water bottles, cosmetic bag, small gadgets, books , etc,.  It  has however, no compartment or zip except for a large coconut shell button that you can see at the top centre of the bag.
