Miriam,

Watsa mater you can't sleep either? We've had a half dozen lousy nights lately.

We've got a roll of wall paper that would fix the Cinderella case right up.

The hardest part of refurbishing the wooden cases is sanding and prepping them after they are glued back together.
I use lots of sand paper and plastic wood to make them smooth enough to recover. Lots of work, but considering how hard good cases are to find, I think it's worth it.
