This sophisticated, but simple book structure gives you an opportunity to synthesize some of the photographs, text, assorted papers and two dimensional items that you have accumulated over the years. Five stocky pages will be created covering them entirely with your collages. They will then be "perfect bound" along one edge with a simple technique using a strip of leather. The resultant book is strong and opens flat. Indentations can be made for small 3-D objects as well. Basic materials and tools will be provided. You are encouraged to bring items to cut or attach permanently to the pages.

Class Size: 12 maximum
