I finally finished binding Nature and Nurture by @earlgreytea68, such a beautiful Johnlock fic that I’ve loved for years.
This was honestly a tricky one. I wanted to do something delicate and nature-inspired, so I made a little window on the cover with translucent paper to hold some dried flowers... which turned out beautiful eventually, but not before I messed it up three times and accidentally sliced into the back of the text block 😅 Worth it though.
The design is inspired by the GORGEOUS bind by wilddaisies_bindery on ig and also some bookmarks i made ages ago and that look so pretty with this bind.
The title, author, and AO3 logo are all handwritten with paint markers, and I used sea photographs from Canva as endpapers.
I’m so happy with how it turned out and I'm so glad to finally give this fic a physical form after loving it for years.
Thank you so much to the author for letting me bind this beauty and I hope you like how it turned out!
