In this bookbinding class, we will be crafting custom pocket sized notebooks. Pocket sized notebooks are small, easy to carry and easy to make notebooks that are great for everyday use. We will review commercial examples you may see at stores, then review the materials and tools needed to craft our own notebooks. All materials for this project can be found around the house, so you will not need to purchase or find any specialty materials.

Don't worry if you don't think you're a crafty person or have never tried bookbinding. This course is perfect for any experience level!
