Found this great looking book at the thrift store and knew it would make a fantastic book purse.
I reclaimed the handles off a super ugly purse from the same thrift store and dug through my fabric stash for the lining.
I went ahead and listed it in my Etsy store a little earlier today.
Very cool! I always loved book purses. The first one I remember seeing belonged to a woman from New York and the book was a pretty Romance Novel book. The inside was black and white polka dots. It fit her to a T! I have one that was given to me that has a tree on the cover.
Love this purse – what a great idea!!
ooo brilliant rescue and transformation Halle
