Handmade Notebooks: Mini Jotters WORKSHOP, June 25

In partnership with Local Goods Colorado, the next workshop I'm doing is this in-person Mini Jotter project! We will have the class outside on the amazing deck space if the weather is nice :)

Elevate your everyday notes with these beautiful and functional mini jotter notebooks. You'll learn traditional bookbinding techniques, and add your creative flair with decorative cover and enclosure options. These little 4x6" books pack an artistic punch and are perfect for listmaking, keeping quotes, wedding vows, other special notes, or simply a beautiful way to write your grocery lists. They make amazing gifts too! Depending on timing, each participant will make 2-3 notebooks. Local bookmaker Kristen Law Lewis brings her gentle, engaging, and informative approach to this class experience.

All levels welcome. All tools and materials provided. June 25 10am-noon, $50. Local Goods Colorado (Lafayette, CO)

Hand-bound Album - Spring Botanicals WORKSHOP, May 21

In partnership with a great new-ish shop in Lafayette, Local Goods Colorado, I'm doing an in-person workshop which uses this beautiful paper that has natural inclusions like leaves and flower petals.

We'll be outside on their amazing deck if the weather's nice :)

Make a functional and beautiful hand-bound album inspired by springtime! This project pairs thoughtfully-curated materials with traditional bookbinding techniques, resulting in an archival-quality album - perfect for 4x6 photos, scrapbooking, keepsakes, or writing or drawing.

Give your secondhand fabric another chance, as part of this fun and eco-friendly bookbinding project! Learn to make a notebook with a cloth cover and tree-free page paper. Bring your own fabric to *upcycle, or choose from our stash. All other materials and tools included. All levels welcome.

*Please bring a piece of fabric 8x10 inches or larger. Not-stretchy fabric is best, such as cotton (old dress shirt, quilting cotton, old sheet/pillowcase). Sturdy silks, linens, or poly blends usually work as well (silk shirt, scarf, napkin, etc). Stretchy things like t-shirts or sweaters (knits, jersey) will not work for this project. Feel free to just bring whatever you've got - we'll have spare fabric to use if needed.

Village Trading Co. is an amazing locally owned shop, focused on a low-waste way of life.

Be sure to visit this lovely place when you are in Lafayette!
