Mixed Media Journal

£70.00

1 Day Workshop

Wed, 11th April, 2018

10:00am - 4:00pm

Whether you want to create a journal for a particular project, such as planning your garden, or a wedding, or a folder in which to store precious fragments of fabric, templates, tracings and a record of your creative work, this workshop will leave you with a beautiful journal made from card and hand made papers, with stitched and painted details. You will make and decorate a re-sealable strap to hold the pages together and enable you to expand the journal at home. Choosing from Caroline’s collection of antique papers, you may want to decorate the folder. Caroline will show you how to make pockets and envelopes, and using simple book-binding tools, tiny hand-stitched notebooks or sections of hand-made paper for you to add to the journal. An intensely creative, productive day.
