Come along to my Handmade Journal Workshop and take home a completely handmade personalised A4 sized journal.

In this workshop we will be starting from scratch using cardboard, bookcloth and decorative papers to create your very own journal.

This journal is suitable for writing or drawing, or both - depending on the types of paper we will use in construction.

Once you have learnt the basics of this type of book construction you will them be able to create these wonderful journals yourself. No two books we produce on this day will be the same as I encourage each of you put your own creative stamp on each journal you produce.

Producing a useable and attractive journal in this workshop is a fabulous achievement - and once these skills have been mastered you will then have the basics to move on to other types of book construction.

Class numbers are strictly limited as we will all need some working space. Some materials are included in your Workshop fee - however I do encourage my students to bring along certain decorative papers and ephemera that they would like to incorporate in the construction. I have envelopes, sheet music, tags, stamps etc, that you will be welcome to use.
