Bookbinding merch 📚 [ Ссылка ]
✿✿✿
These are rounded spine case bound books that turned out wonderfully. It's been over a year since I tried backing, and felt inspired to try again with my new backing boards. It was challenging without a lying press however. The covers are made with a variation of the 3 piece bradel binding method with commercial book cloth and chiyogami paper. I added cover decorations with stamp embossing. These may be some of the prettiest journals I've made!
