Our featured purse ...
Nancy Drew: The Mystery of the Glowing Eye
This classic story has now become a
one-of-a-kind book purse.
All of our purses are made
from gently used, recycled books.   
The  pages of the books are
carefully removed and recycled. 
If necessary, the cover is then
sealed using a special dual
layer process.  The lining is sewn
together and then securely
glued into place. 
Finally, handles and a closure
are added and
VOILA...
a purse is born.
