Mini-Workshop: Strap Bound Books
Sunday, January 26, 2025, 1:00 PM–3:00 PM (PST)
via ZOOM
Workshop fee: $25.00
Registration is Required for this Event
In this two-hour Zoom workshop, Belinda Hill will teach you how to make strap bound journals. These wonderful small books make nice gifts, guest books, and small notebooks. Strap bound books can be completed in a few hours and don't require a lot of materials or tools to make. They are a great use for your dramatic gel prints, eco prints, paste paper or marbled papers. Making strap books can be addictive though so join at your own risk!
