07.27.2010 - Book Binding, Make a journal in 2 days!
Join Barb Sanders in making a finished blank journal to record your precious summer journeys or to give away to someone special. 6 to 8 students will learn the basics of paper, folding, cutting, pasting, and book structure. No prior experience is needed. We will see samples of beautiful papers and learn to understand the pros and cons of each. Barb will bring some handmade books from her collection.
Students only need to bring sharp scissors, pencil, ruler, and Exacto™ knife (if they have one). Bring lunch or grab a slice of Pizza from next door – we’ll break so our papers stay clean! Students will have their own copy of instructions and lists of suppliers, resources and catalogues enabling them to make additional books in the future.
Due to sharp knives and needles, this work shop is not for children. Sign up with a friend for spare helping hands! This is an opportunity to understand and appreciate the beauty of the hand-bound book.
