DRUM LEAF BINDING WORKSHOP
at Big River Bindery, Saturday May 30, 10 - 4
The Drum Leaf is a binding that uses only adhesive to connect the pages – no sewing. It opens flat and has flush edges, making it great for sketchbooks, journals, or artist books. We’ll discuss paper and decorating techniques, and participants will go home with a completed book.
