Workshop Description:

Sometimes you just need a book to toss into your bag to have available for notes. Sometimes you want to give someone a cool gift that they don’t think is too precious to actually use. This simple, sturdy structure fits the occasion and has a wide range of options for personalizing and stitching outside the lines.

It’s a perfect vehicle for bringing together those fun bits of ephemera you’ve been saving and for loosening up a tad between addressing more formal structures.

Materials/equipment to be provided by students:

• Cutting mat
• Bone folder
• Teflon folder
• Metal ruler
• Scissors
• Personal collage papers and ephemera
• Tools for note-taking
