Book making kits for Japanese stab binding, mini sewn books, codex style books, and accordion style books
are a great way to introduce yourself to the wonderful world of hand bound books. The book making kit instructions are
very detailed and easy to follow.
Book making kits can be used in the classroom also.
Star Books Kit~ These are just simply grand when they are completed. This kit makes 2 star books,
1 measures 3" x 3" and the other measures 4" x 4". It includes all the materials needed to complete both books- all
you need to provide are scissors, glue, pencil & ruler, wax paper, bone folder and 1/4" wide 2 sided tape (1/2" will work
also). You are then on your way to become a Star Book creator. Remember, you can then use these instructions and
your own supplies to go on and create many more books. I have found the instructions for these books to be very good
and easy to follow. I am one of those people who do better with stuff when shown- so when I can follow directions and
have them come out good, I am always pleased.

Linen Tape Journal~ This kit comes complete with everything to make this wonderful linen tape
journal, you just need your scissors, glue applicator, pencil and ruler, adhesive, bone folde and awl. It comes with
54 acid free 7" x 5" pages, ph neutral bookboard,, decorative Oriental paper, linen tape, thread and needle. Each
kit I receive has different papers in it so there is no standard paper selection for any of these kits. I think the
directions they provide are very good also and I am the kind of person who likes to be shown rather than try to go by directions. So
try your hand at a linen tape journal.
