How to Recover a Bible Yourself
November 28, 2007 at 6:16 pm 6 comments
Okay, so I promised you I’d show you how. TIPS for RECOVERING YOUR BIBLE (not “re-binding”, per se.)
I don’t know all the technical how-tos, but here’s how I did it. Hope it helps. I hate those cheap leather-like leather chips they call leather on most Bibles you buy. I need DURABILITY, and a closure. I’m rather attached to my own Bible, but cannot see sending it off at all, anywhere…I just can’t part with it, and I can’t see paying more for a cover than the Bible itself is worth new. So, here I go.
This is my fist video “how- to”, so don’t laugh at the skills, internets.

OH. MY. WORD!!!! YOU. ARE. THE. BOMB!
I don’t know if I would ever be able to do it myself, but I am amazed that you did.
I watched with my jaw dropped. The reason this is so amazing to me is that I have not one single crafty bone in my body!!!
Good work and great video!
Blessings, friend!

I see that you did this in 2007. I’m about to do the same for my Bible and was wondering how yours is holding up. Is there anything different you’d do if you had to do it again?
