Book Binding - Create your own journal - Feb 26

Learn the lost ancient art form of book binding to create your very own journal, visual diary or memory keepsake.
 
In this 4 hour workshop you will learn the fundamentals of how to bind and create your own book using vintage, reclaimed, recycled and new paper, books and materials. Pull together these beautiful resources are create something as eclectic or as classic as your own taste dictates.
 
Jules invites you into her light and airy home studio where you are sure to be inspired to get creative surrounded by art.
 
Bookmaking is such a methodical and meditative practice that once learned can be used time and time again for yourself and for thoughtful gifts for your loved ones.
 
Jules will have a collection of vintage books and materials but you are encouraged to start collecting your own. Bringing new life to old art, we will be using the hard cover of old books as the cover for our new works of art. Jules has been collecting these and will have enough for each student but we encourage you to head down to the op shop or second hand book store and have a rummage for something, you may find a cover that you fall in love with, as long as it is A5 or smaller, bring it along. If you have any old magazines please bring them too, as we will stitch the new in with the old to create truly unique artworks.
 
 
All supplies are included along with your choice or of barista coffee (please let us know your coffee of choice in the order notes as these will be delivered)
