Handmade Books

I went to the Fountain Hills Art Fair and came upon handmade books. Take a look at the special paper and binding. The creator was selling these from $20 (for the pocket size) all the way to over $100 (for the scrapbook size).

    Thank you for sharing these. I like the straps that hold the books closed.

    Pretty awesome. When the semester is over, I plan on making some more books on my own. The possibilities are endless!

    Some of these books remind me of Sean Connery's diary in the Last Crusade.

    Luke- I totally agree! I'm working on three different ideas for this project and I started to ask myself...why am I making three when I only need to make one? Then I realized, that's because there are sooo many ways! I was curious how they would all turn out.
