Very large stainless steel pot (East Marden)
3d
- I’m hoping to dye some fabric but it has to be done in a stainless steel or enamel pot on the stove top and I don’t have anything large enough. If you’ve got a pot that’s around 12”/30 wide and deep (or larger) that you no longer need, I’d be very grateful for it. Or would be happy to borrow it and return it afterwards. Many thanks.

Large Adidas sports bag/holdall (East Marden)
Expired

The fabric on the smaller one is a plain silk-look material and the other has a slightly more slubby texture. The fittings allow them to be used either on table lamps or ceiling lights.
