What amazing art you created ! I for sure want to take the love and care to fix up an old worn piece of history while updating it to be used once again, it it's just beautiful! I own an old 1889 catalog that is so cool and very poor shape and I'm going to save the pages of it and use the fantastic cover in this way! Thank you for the inspiration! Very relaxing to me too..👏

Coucou France, What a brilliant idea and project, you have worked you magic again to create such a gorgeous repurposed bespoke folder. I love everything about it, all the colours, textures and the vintage style too. The spine embellishments are delightful. I will add this to my ‘To Do ‘ list as I have a few of old books that would work well I am sure. Thank you for your inspiriation and clear easy to follow instructions. Warmest best wishes, Susanne
