Bookbinding – The Presentation Album
Description
This course is ideal for those who love to make their own books This workshop offers basic skills in bookbinding which can be repeated at home with no specialised equipment
The Presentation Album was developed as an answer to a question: how to create a simple but handsome album which would house photos in an elegant embossed page without swelling the book. Over the course of two days you will create a very handsome quality presentation album. Each page will have an impressed panel to house the photographs, made using an ingenious technique which is far simpler than you could imagine!
