Book & Paper Arts Workshops
Drum Leaf Binding (San Diego, CA)
The Drum Leaf Binding is an unsewn book that uses a minimum of glue to bind pages into a book that opens flat. It is perfect for an image that spans the gutter of two pages in a folio. Once learned, the structure can be made easily and quickly. You can present your artwork and photography in a book other than an accordion.
