Book Effects

Expression, Nov-Dec, 2004

Create your own unique book! This is a basic book kit with instructions that offer variations to page layout and binding techniques. We especially like the multiple diagrams with clear and detailed instructions. The instructions also offer suggestions for decorating the cover along with different pocket folds for the text pages. The kit contains a pre-drilled cover with 3/8-inch spine, 24 heavy stock pages, archival and acid-free paper, a hole-punching template, a needle, and natural raffia to bind the book. Great for a beginning bookbinder and certainly a nice gift.
