Learn traditional bookbinding and box-making techniques while creating your own handmade box. Because this class is designed to make the most of the lesson time by focusing on construction, covering, lining, and finishing rather than board preparation, we’ll use pre-cut book board.
You’ll learn how to accurately assemble and cover a rigid box, work with decorative papers and book cloth, create clean corners and edges, and achieve a professional finish. The class will introduce practical skills that can be applied to a range of bookbinding and box-making projects.
No previous experience is required. By the end of the class, you’ll have completed a beautifully finished handmade box and developed a solid foundation in traditional box-making techniques.
