My Bible cover's gotten really worn over the years. In fact, little specks of colored leather flake off at will. The Bible was actually a Christmas gift from my mom over a decade ago in high school. It's been well used & though the cover is rough, the inside Truths are still rock solid. So, I decided to take some decorative duct tape I snagged at the Dollar Tree & fix it up. I tried as best I could to let the design on the tape match up with each strip I applied + I was extra careful with the spine, edges, & corners. I'm pleased with how it turned out!
"A Bible that's falling apart usually belongs to someone who isn't."
-Charles Spurgeon
It's not always the case for me, but I pray the above is true more & more & more. We are works in continual progress, & He is so gracious to me.
Love,
-Bess-
P.S.: I'm working through this Bible-in-a-year plan {above} that I started this month. They say June's the new January, right?
P.P.S.: Have you ever used duct tape on a Bible or book or some other craft project?
