Ok, let’s try this again! Fixed the typo 😵💫 (see last slide for original). The Inquisition War by Ian Watson, a Warhammer 40k novel. Craquel dyed leather, backpared onlays, and 23k gold tooling. . . #warhammer40k #scifi #finebinding #goldtooling #fixingmistakes #warhammercommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CpA4u7sPfKI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Green Death II. Ironically I’m pretty sure this is the first time I’ve done this design in green ☠️ . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #bookbinder #blankbook #journal #journaling #bookworm #bookporn #bookbindingporn #grimoire #leatherbound #leatherboundbook #bibliophile #bookofshadows https://www.instagram.com/p/CosHs92L7Ge/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Fine binding “replica” of Five Centuries of English Verse from Dead Poet’s Society. Hand-dyed leather to give a slightly worn look, and tooled with 23k gold. . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #lostarts #goldtooling #finebinding #booklust #lovebooks #leatherjournal #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #bookporn #journal #bespoke #deadpoetssociety #fivecenturiesofverse #robinwilliams https://www.instagram.com/p/ConBTlepd3r/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

There are two of these still available. My prices have gone up with the new year, but I left these at the old price, so they’re technically discounted! . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #lostarts #goldtooling #finebinding #booklust #lovebooks #leatherjournal #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #bookporn #journal #bespoke #giltedge https://www.instagram.com/p/CnPmql_PHjp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Back at it after a very restful two week break. Got some awesome projects in the queue for this year! . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #create #craft #craftsmanship #craftsperson #finebinding #theprocess #wip #workinprogress #bookbindingporn #leatherwork #magic #handmade #handmadeisbetter #blankbook #grimoire #bespoke https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm63i-TpqMu/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I can finally reveal what would turn out to be the last book I’ll complete this year - a rebound early copy of David Edding’s The Belgariad. Covered with @jhewitsons’s Pentland goat, tooled with 23k gold, and with marbled endpapers by @jemmalewismarbling. Really happy with how this one turned out…I know I’m kinda known for elaborate tooling, but I’ve been enjoying doing work that allows a book to stand out with minimal tooling. Expect to see plenty of both in 2023! . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #lostarts #goldtooling #finebinding #booklust #lovebooks #leatherjournal #bookstagram #bibliophile #bookworm #booklover #bookporn #journal #bespoke #devideddings #thebelgariad https://www.instagram.com/p/CmwiIQFLtsx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What a year #artvsartist #2022 Did a lot of things I’d never done but had been wanting to for a long time, and learned a ton. And perhaps most significantly, finally quit my shitty tech job and went full time into bookbinding! . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #create #craft #craftsmanship #craftsperson #finebinding #theprocess #wip #workinprogress #bookbindingporn #leatherwork #magic #handmade #handmadeisbetter #blankbook #grimoire #bespoke #goldtooling https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl9CUEPps45/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
There’s still time to get these shipped in time for holiday gifting! Gilt and gauffered edges, with marbled papers by @jemmalewismarbling. . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #bookbinder #blankbook #journal #journaling #bookworm #bookporn #bookbindingporn #grimoire #leatherbound #leatherboundbook #bibliophile #bookofshadows #giltedges #edgegilding #gaufferededges #goldtooling https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl37o69JF4M/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Woof. Anybody else experience an emotional and creative slump after finishing a big intense project? Taking a day off to recharge after this beast. This was done with backpared onlays, and then tooled with one of @dimitris_bookbinding_corner’s invaluable styluses. The seeds in the pomegranates and the bees were done with one of his dot tools. Swipe to see what I was working from! . . . #McCallCo #bookbinding #create #craft #craftsmanship #craftsperson #finebinding #theprocess #wip #workinprogress #bookbindingporn #leatherwork #magic #handmade #handmadeisbetter #blankbook #grimoire #bespoke #leatheronlays #goldtooling https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl1U_YvrBwY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
