Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Diamante Book clutch
Embrace your inner magic and look wonderfully wizard-y in this Harry Potter clutch! This sweet book clutch has an absolutely stunning design - an elegant, slimline look that will be sure to turn heads when you wear it out!
The book clutch has been made by modifying the book cover so it will fit the elegant length of the evening clutch. The clutch features a diamante studded pop clasp, silver toned hardware and an original Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix hard cover. It has a small black carry strap, measuring 20cms in length. When you open the clutch, there is an internal zip pocket, perfect for storing coins, cards and cash. You may be able to fit your phone ( but please check dimensions below) - for example, my iphone 6 will comfortably fit inside this clutch.
This is an upcycled creation ( good for the environment as everything has been reused!) - which means a preloved book has been matched with a preloved evening clutch. The upcycled purse is in very good condition, although there is some very minor puckering inside the lining of the clutch. The book has a ripple along the laminated spine (please see last photo). These very minor flaws are consistent with age - and because they are located inside the clutch and at the base they will not be noticeable to the trained eye or detract from this gorgeous bespoke creation!

Care and Instructions:
To preserve the life of your unique book clutch, ensure that you avoid any water, spills or damp surfaces. The book cover has been laminated – but treat your clutch in the same way that you would a beloved and treasured book.
About Bookanook Studio:
Your book clutch has been handmade with love from my studio on the Central Coast of NSW. All books are sourced from second hand stores and pre-loved shops – so no new or unread books are damaged in the process. Yay to that! Clutches (unless specified in the description above) are also sourced from pre-loved stores and upcycled – part of the art of making a book clutch involves lovingly selecting clutches and purses that match the colour, theme and dimensions of the book. Please note: The upcycled purses/clutches and books may have minor flaws or imperfections consistent with their age, but this will not detract from their unique and beautiful, handmade look.
Manuscripts of books are reused for art projects, book sculptures and scrap booking, so nothing goes to waste. My business philosophy is to recycle and reuse – and to ultimately transform unloved books into wearable pieces of art for book fans to enjoy. I hope you enjoy your book clutch and get as much satisfaction from showing it off as I do making them.
Yours in Books,
Michelle. x
