Introduction -- The basics: materials, tools, and techniques -- Vintage books -- Nature books -- Leather books.
"Bind a book beautifully, with these whimsical and stylish projects from bookbinder extraordinaire Erica Ekrem! With her novel approach to traditional techniques, and the use of repurposed materials, Ekrem has devised creative fun for book artists of all levels. Choose from three categories: Vintage, Nature, and Leather. Make books from mason jars and seashells, a classic leather-bound photo album, and other works of art"-- Provided by publisher.
"Bound offers approximately 25-30 bookbinding projects showcasing beautiful exposed bindings. Classified in chapters entitled Vintage, Nature, and Leather, projects include a mason jar book, a seashell book, and a classic-looking leather-bound photo album, to name a few. Beginners will find plenty of entry-level projects to enjoy, while more experienced book artists will learn new ways to do old binding techniques. The Basics section and each project are illustrated with gorgeous, bright beauty shots and whimsical-but-clear illustrations. Ms. Ekrem uses her way with words and her talented hand at book arts to take readers on a little stroll into their own imagination (or their memory) with each creation"-- Provided by publisher.
