Give yourself the gift of quiet time and creative activity in companionship with others while making small handmade books that can be used as gifts and cards. Diamond fold books are a special treat. They look complex but are easy to make. Once you learn how to make the folded sections, you can combine them to make accordions, stars, and necklace books. As a gift to the earth, the books will be made from recycled materials. No art experience or creative confidence is needed; this workshop is truly for everyone. Susan has an international reputation for sharing the art and craft of making simple handmade books through her website (makingbooks.com) and blog (susangaylord.com).
