Recent Recycled Books Workshop

We had a great time sticking, stitching, tearing paper and assembling our books - a bit like being at play school again.  As well as the benefit of her experience, Christine fortunately provided us with a kit of materials, or we might have been spent an awful lot longer at play!

A small sample of the results from the workshop can be seen below.  What a great feeling to be able to produced a completed article during the workshop and not have to finish off at home.  The books are a great opportunity to use up those stashes of hoarded and recycled papers, and there's plenty of opportunity for customisation.

The previous evening's mini workshop to make gift tags had got us warmed up to the task, and there's now no excuse for not bringing all those lovely bits and pieces out of the closet.
