Hello hello! If you've been reading this little blog, you would already know by now, I make quite a bit of hand bound books. I've got some on sale online in Amy's wonderful shop, and also at Pip's quaint shop in Fitzroy. Pip even organized a little giveaway a while back and so many lovely people commented! I'm touched! Thank you all for the sweet stuff you said!
Anyway, I often get questions about how I make these books. Well, good news! I'm doing a little bookbinding workshop!
**************
Easy-peasy Bookbinding by hand, filled with love!
SAT 15 AUGUST 12pm onwards
At Sticky Institute

"Book binding demo with lover of bound books, Dawn Tan. All you need is just the right tools, some patience and a heart for all things hand made, ( And of course some beautiful fabrics and papers you’ve been dying to use ) and you’re ready to go! See how it’s done, go hunt out some cool materials, then go home and bind some of the nicest books you’ve ever done. Then bring them back into Sticky so we can all go oooooh aaaaaaaaah!"

Oh how I love hand bound books. With pretty fabrics and the loveliest papers. And the best part of it, is that it's not that difficult to bind one of these sweet books! Not at all!
I'm so thrilled to be given this wonderful opportunity to conduct a little workshop, thanks Elle and the rest at Sticky for this wonderful chance!
Now, I can't wait for August 15!
PS: Class spaces are limited so do hurry! : )
