You bring the paper; we provide the rest. In this two-day class you will learn how to create journals made from a variety of papers that you love. We will create decorative hard covers and bind them and your collection of papers together into a journal you will treasure. Bring an old thick catalog of some sort, pair of scissors to cut paper, sketch paper, sturdy tracing paper, scrap paper, failed watercolor paintings, printed paper, lined school paper, old music scores, wrapping paper, packing paper, whatever paper you love. I will teach you how to turn them into a book which you can decorate in a variety of ways, and you will go home with all the supplies you need to make more.  The journals can be used in a variety of ways:  a diary, a sketchbook, a collection of quotations, holiday gift lists, holiday card lists, to do lists, gardening journal, bird watching record, travel journal, etc.  This class is for beginners, but all skill levels are welcome.
