Prepare for the arrival of spring by creating your very own nature journal to bring with you outside when the weather gets warmer. Learn the Coptic binding method, one of the oldest book binding methods as you create a journal which inspires you. This beginner friendly method is a great introduction to the skillful art of book binding. Pick out your cover, paper, and binding thread to create a journal which makes you happy. Take your journal home at the end of the session to fill it with your thoughts in the future.
-What to Expect: Participants will use the Coptic binding method to create two journals: a mini practice journal and a larger full size journal they will get to design themselves using various materials. Book binding uses a variety of materials including needles, threads, chipboard and more. The materials available varies.
