Do you remember having a bag compulsion at an early age? I do. I remember having a Strawberry Shortcake lunch box. I could read very early and I remember reading some type of warning on the inside of it again and again till I had it memorized. I remember a blue book bag I had. I believe Holly Hobby was on it. I can still remember how it felt in my hands. How it smelt.
Recalling this makes me realize where my bag addiction might have began. These bags always intrigued me. So pretty and new. I always got new stuff at the beginning of the school year and it signified all sorts of new possibilities and fun. I might get these bags weeks before school started and hold them with such anticipation.
I also remember having 2 coin type purses. One looked like a strawberry and one was gold metal. It was popular in the early 80's. I would hold the purse up and the metal would fall away from the inner lining. I can still recall how it felt to run my finger over it. Does anyone have any idea what these gold purses were called?
