Title: Upcycle Journal Making
Instructor: Susan Smereka
Cost: $80, credit card, paypal or cash to GIAW
Date: July 17
Time: 11-4 pm
Minimum: 5
Learn to take something old and make it new again! We will rebuild an old book and give it new life as a unique journal to inspire you to write and capture your precious ideas, collages, and drawings. And they make great gifts too!
You will break down an old book, and rebind it with blank pages interleaved with text from the original. Build your knowledge and skills around bookbinding as you learn the parts of a book and how to do a long stitch binding with waxed linen thread.
Whether you are new to bookbinding or not, this workshop is appropriate for all skill levels and interests. Join us for this opportunity to build your own creative journal or continue feeding your bookbinding passion!
Please feel free to bring any paper, suitable for writing and sketching that you might want to include in your journal. All materials and tools, including the books, will be provided.
