Etiquette & Lace...

It's fun to see what you can do with vintage objects that need a little TLC.  Take this sweet old book...

It once looked like this...

This is a book from 1934 on Etiquette - filled with sweet advice.  I liked the spine and wanted to keep that visible.  So what to do?   I grabbed a piece of old lace and an old tan cotton shirt.  Did a little ironing and stitched the lace to the cotton.  Then with the miracle of a hot glue gun - the rest is history.  I'm loving my lace covered Book of Etiquette.  (which is for sale in my Etsy shop.)

 

And my book was featured in this delightful
