Diana,
Why not use one of those clear plastic bookmark holders that all the general
lace suppliers have?  I always use them.

A while back there was some discussion on laminating lace could anyone tell 
me what the consensus was?

I have just taken a Bucks Point bookmark off the pillow, I shall be giving 
it to my old schoolteacher and thought that laminating would be the better 
option for her use. She is 91 years old, has lost both her legs but has 
incredible brainpower and loves reading biographical and travel books!!

Me too, although I did get one laminated, I use it and wouldn't give it 
away.  I do laminate pages to keep sample pieces clean and safe in my folder 
though.  Sue T

IIRC the consensus was lamination is 'iffy' - for some the results
were disappointing and couldn't be undone without ruining the lace.
For others it was 'ok' - but the plastic sleeves are better. Again,
IIRC, what followed from the laminating topic was a how-to and many
tips on getting the lace into the respective plastic sleeve.

If sleeves aren't readily available, and especially for a one-of, you
could use a plastic page protector cut to size, and stitch neatly
around the outside either with machine or by hand. I do recall who
contributed this tip, it was Miriam in Israel.

Hope this helps.
