Travel Journal Workshop with Elissa Campbell (Waitsfield, VT)

Schedule:
Jul 22, 2021 — 10am - 5pm (ET) with lunch break 12:30pm - 1:15pm; 

Not only does travel offer you the opportunity to experience culture and adventure, but also the opportunity to invest in yourself. A travel journal is a wonderful way to create a tangible memory of any journey you embark on.

In this workshop, participants will create a journal with a double-needle Coptic binding, an intricate stitch that will be visible on the spine of the book. Not only is the Coptic binding beautiful, but it also allows books to remain flat when opened.

The journal will include pockets both inside the covers and in the text block, allowing you the opportunity to save lots of stuff from your travels – tickets, photos, pressed flowers – you name it!
