OCAD bookbinding workshop


Last week Hazel and I had the pleasure of attending a bookbinding workshop at the OCAD Student Gallery hosted by OCAD's Student Press. The particular technique we learned is called case binding. I had a ton of fun tapping back into my crafty side while nibbling on the fresh strawberries they put out for us. It was a really great way to end of a dreadfully hot day. The best part is that it was completely free — materials and all! A shout out and thanks to Lisa and Eunice for being such lovely hosts!



Here are some process photos of the book I made:



The finished product!


I'll be looking out for more workshops next year and you can too at www.ocadustudentpress.com, and at their facebook or twitter.
