what once was.....
have you ever thought ummm, i need a new bible cover why not use this purse, no. well i have never also, but lynnette on the other hand seems to work on another bandwidth and had this bright idea. she had picked up what she thought was a "kinda cool" red leather purse (personally i never really thought it so cool), and at first had no further plans of using it but upon seeing the need of her badly battered bible cover and remembering my grandpa's hobby of recovering bibles with leather skirts she decided to take on a new project.
yes she's quite crafty. and as you can see her below it turned out quite good, not that i had any doubt but i am still quite impressed. the button was also picked up at our clothing bazaar as was the purse, what finds! so there you have it, do you have a beaten up bible, bring it back to live easily with skirt, or purse. costs involved, 400 ft (2$) for the leather glue!

Very nice work Lynnette, I am impressed. Light covers out of wire and paper, bible covers out of purses . . . what next? I can't wait to see!:)
ok So I decided to say Hello. I think the Bible looks really Awesome, and now you know I am lurking. I found you guys through your brother Mark, him through his comment on the Ens Approach. But it has been a long time since the smelly hockey rink so I am saying Hello and God Bless your Trip and the two of you for going and helping.
I am really impressed Lynnette, I don't know if I could do that. Necessity is the mother of invention as they say. Are we going to see you guys any time soon??
