David,
I used contact cement to stick the jacket on the wood.
I rubbed it on the wood and velvet very thinly with a finger. (If you apply the glue in a thick, lumpy manner, it'll show through afterward) Then let it dry. Be careful you get it lined up before the two parts make contact!
When they stick, they're stuck!
I started applying the velvet down the seam, and then pulled it tightly as I wrapped it around.
It put up a bit of a fight, but serrendered in the end....
Ward,
Didn't know anything about the gold and religeon.
If it ever needs a new jacket, I'll see if I can find some reddish-gold foil!
