#in some frenzy desperation i'm grasping at different projects

[minilev]

So remember the book I've rebinded? I made a textile sky baby blue hard cover that was so pleasant to hold in hands and i was so eager to read it (I haven't read Duma's "Ascanio" yet) And I thought you can't even tell where's the back and where's the front...

I've fucked it up! ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) offuckingcourse! I was so angry at myself for ruining it that I couldn't sleep for few nights.

Me who always tell everyone that all aerosols are evil! Somehow was convinced that THIS TIME I'll manage the spray! BITCH! I couldn't even spray paint a pot for succulents evenly!

I've literally read an experienced bookbinder's post how you should do such thing manually few days before!

It was wet and created stains (i've managed to kinda clean it up with wet wipes, it was much worse before). The spray got under the stencil I've cut out and because the layer of paint is too thin and doesn't have enough reflective particles it's basically brown and makes the cover look dirty. Now it's unpleasant to hold in hands :(

Really discouraged myself while I've managed to order book restoration materials (for this money i could buy 3 new books ;)). Hoping to fix this 1958 edition of Captain Blood from library that is missing like 5-7 pages

No experiments this time
