Start your bookbinding journey in the comfort of your own home at completely your own pace. Detailed clear demo videos show you the processes step by step so you can pause, skip or re-watch to your hearts content. The kit provided ensures that you'll not only have everything you need for the course but to be able to carry on afterwards too. I can be available via email and WhatsApp to answer questions if needed (by arrangement).
Work with traditional book binding materials and techniques and get creative with alternative structures and styles.
You will begin by learning to cut and stitch the pages and use canvas to create a hardback cover, resulting in a gorgeous hard back book. You will then be able to go onto exploring larger, designs with a variety of techniques, covers and materials.
You will finish the course with at least 2 gorgeous books and the skills to continue creating afterwards. This series of exercises is the equivalent of a full day course including making time and will enable you to feel confident enough in the process to keep making books afterwards.
Please choose from the following colour themes: Autumn, Summer or Aqua. And the name / message you would like engraved onto the top of your book press (that's included in the kit). Please message me with your choices and the address you would like your kit sent to. Please allow 7 - 10 days for delivery of your kit.
All your materials and tools are included as well as all the video tutorials that you will need. Help is also available via WhatsApp and email.
A clean and clear work area big enough to spread out a number of materials, books and tools. Scrap white paper (unused print outs or photocopies are ideal or cheap white paper) for gluing and protecting your book. Paper scissors and a pencil. A device with a large enough screen to view the tutorials and the ability to play sound.

Hi Rachel,
We have received three 'parcels' and a dropbox link to 30 videos.
We haven't got the chance to 'éxamine' the materials in detail so far. However, at a glance, we should have enough information to make a book. :)
Thank you very much for reaching out to us - greatly appreciate.
Kind regards,
Paul
