This workshop will begin by using the contact method of using natural plant material to pattern paper appropriate for book binding. Students will use contact-printed papers dyed with real leaves to create a custom portfolio to hold precious papers. We will print a variety of papers to include in the portfolio. Students are welcome to bring their own papers to use for accents. No previous bookbinding experience is required.
All materials are included in workshop fee.
Students should wear appropriate clothing and shoes, items that you won’t mind potentially being stained. Bring a pair of rubber gloves and an apron if you like.
Students are encouraged to bring a sack lunch. Coffee, tea, water and light snacks will be served.
Limit 8 students.
