Literally...this is a textbook purse...made from an old Biology text my sister found in a used book store. My sister Ruby made this for our other sister Rose for Christmas. I'm jealous...I want one. I don't need another purse....wait, sure I do! I'm a woman. Don't we always need another purse?
Do you have any of those old big college textbooks laying around? Those would work great for this project.

And my sister found the best fabric for a microbiology text. It makes me think the inside is crawling with living little critters.
Here are the video directions my sister used. But I found two different sets of directions online that seem similar; here and this one with pictures.
Hmmm....should I go with an art text? Or a cookbook or....oh I know! Wouldn't it be great to find a big book of fairy tales or other great big kids book and use it as a toy tote for church? Time to raid the kids' bookshelves.
Are you as excited about this purse as I am? No? That's alright, I always knew I was a craft nerd.
Too funny, but it DOES look interesting! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
