In a book bind!!

I love a good Pottery Barn Book!

I always buy them when I see them.

If we could all live in a Pottery Barn world!

 

The book below is one I have brought to work the last few weeks

to read or look at when I have a little down time.

Sadly the cover fell clean off!

It made me so sad. Granted the book cost four dollars, but

I still loved it. I looked online about book repair!

Man it is costly. All the acid free stuff was 3 times the cost of the

book. Sadly I wasn't on board. I thought and thought what I could do

and it dawned on me that linen book tape

looks a lot like First Aid Tape!

 

 

I high tailed it to Walmart and found some "athletic tape"

for $ 1.24 and saved my "this week" favorite book!

 

 

Sadly the tape isn't acid free and so it will not

last forever...but I think it will last as long as the book is in style!

 

***Do not use on heirloom or vintage items!!***

 

Happy Thrifting!
