Turn an old, unwanted book into a useful unique purse!

• A hardcover book (preferably with a pretty cover). The one I used was this boring lavender color, so I went ahead and decoupaged it.
• A piece of thick cardboard cut to fit the spine of the book.
• Half a yard of fabric for lining.
• Purse handles and some type of snap closure.
• Scissors.
• An X-ACTO knife.
• Sewing pins.
• Fabric pen/chalk/some other type of fabric-friendly marking utensil.
• Extra-strength glue.
