Class Experience

Students will make their own handmade books.  They will make and design a different book each day of the week. 

Week 1: Make 2 different books out of 1 page of paper.  Students can choose from 3 different templates then make and design their book

Week 2: Make a Star or Snake book.  Student will create a 3-5 page Star or Snake book, design their pages and put them together

Week 3:  Students will make a hand sewn filed journal for their own use or to give as a gift


These are great book to make for gifts for the holidays ... either blank or filled in with unique stories, pictures or photographs!   

Handmade books are a wonderful way to give a personalized gift and in this class students will learn at least 6 different books and have prototypes to look back on if needed!

I am an Arts Therapist/Intermodal and Teaching Artist. I have been making books with kids and adults as a way of expression for many years. Books are a special art form that has a feeling of containment from the inside.  They are a beautiful art form and they are gaining in popularity in the arts fields!
