Delight a friend or family member with a magical gift book created just for them — a book unlike anything else they own. This workshop will help you create a festive book full of surprises and packed full of words, letters, tiny booklets, pockets, photos, windows, beads, and other ingredients that give meaning to your celebratory wishes.
During the workshop you will develop your concept and palette, decide on a theme or occasion, then dive into a wealth of materials to build your book with paint, paper, thread, buttons, beads, feathers, and whatever else we can find to celebrate the occasion. You’ll end up with a dramatic one-of-a-kind gift and the knowledge to use this form again and again to create other books for yourself and others. Whether your theme is celebration, encouragement, commemorative, or other, you may find that this book form will become a centerpiece of your gift giving!
