Workshop for Sun 19th Oct - Binding a mini book




For those of you who love to make mini books ( I love to!) and those of you who have never tried, this class is for you. I will show you a fantastic way to bind a book and which materials to use for your base.The first part of this class will start at 10-30 sharp because we have to paint the edges and need plenty of drying time during the morning in order for us to carry on with the class in the afternoon.
The cost of the class is £4-00 which includes the book base (6 sheets of 5" square boards) the binding materials, and the paint.
The book I am demonstrating is 'A year in my life' , a collection of photos and memories from 2007, hence the 6 pages which offer up 12 sides: one for each month! You will be free to either buy some papers from the crop shop to use for this project or use your own stash (check your glossaries!)
Mini books are fantastic for all sorts of uses: *Baby brag book, baby's first year
* A book about a special occassion, birthday,
christmas, wedding etc
* They are also fantastic gifts for your family and
friends ( sorry to mention this but christmas is
the month after next!)
