We will look at a variety of handmade boxes to explore a range of structures & use. Then we will each build a box with a fitted lid, using traditional bookbinding boards, adhesives & decorated papers. In this class, you will learn several skills relevant to both box-making & bookbinding. Everyone will go home with a finished box that is both functional and beautiful.
Skill level required: This workshop is appropriate for beginners or advanced bookbinders.
