COPTIC BOOKBINDING by Paige Evans is now available!!
I love making these beautiful books and giving them away as gifts. You can use them as journals, "smash books" or art journals, wedding sign-in books, at baby showers, as a scrapbook, making lists, for instax photos, book reviews, a wonderful Christmas gift, and so much more! I love the exposed binding and tying charms, bits, and baubles into the binding.

The class is only $15 and includes a PDF of written instructions along with the link to the YouTube video showing the start-to-finish process (please tell me the email you use with YouTube and you will have access within 24 hours!) as well as where to find supplies for making coptic books.
I will also have custom kits for those who want everything in one nice little package or don't have the supplies on hand. There will be an "everyday" beautiful kit and a seasonal Christmas kit. I'll do another blog post about those here next week!
If you're just looking for wood covers I have some available for $8/pair in my etsy shop.

You're so dedicated! I know you're in Spain and still working! I can't wait to buy this so I can recreate more of my most favorite possession (the book I made at your class in real life). Also, you are fabulous.
