You come in. Tables set with paper stacks, threads, needles, bone folders, and leather or cloth covers. Tools for cutting, folding, stitching, and binding laid out simply—everything ready to make a custom notebook.
Graham shows the steps, starting with basic signatures and experiments in folding techniques. We share our first attempts, passing them around. Cut precise sheets with templates. Fold, punch, stitch your spine. Glue your cover. Wait for it to set. We use rulers and awls but don't worry—it's easy.
The room has gentle music and hums with focused hands, paper whispering under fingers. You finish your book, admire the pages.
Bring anyone. Make an a5 handbound notebook. Simple. Tactile. Timeless.
Cut, stitch, fold, and cover a beautiful handmade notebook. Learn to slow down and create objects that change how you see the world.
