Another “Edelpappband”, this time with an awesome mixture between jellyfish and kraken´, with a slight gold accent. One of my favourite papers ever.
ABGETAUCHT means “to dive down”, I thought it would fit nicely with the overall theme.
Red oasis goat leather, hand stitched silk headband, italian paper.
Today is my birthday, so I am uploading my favourite book.
The same paper as last time, this time with salmon coloured oasis goat leather and gilded dots as accents. God, I cannot wait to have photos good enough to put into this beauty.
A “Edelpappband”, italian(florentine) paper which reminds me of old medieval book paintings with gold accents with leather to protect the edges. Hand stitched silk headband.
I just wanted to show you what else you can do with books. I love pop up books and I really have to make more of those.
Traveling book I bound for a friend from England who was heading for Japan. Two years later and she is still over there. I cannot wait to take a look at what she wrote in it. Maybe she will even allow me to show some of her entries to you guys?
I used part of an old map(1956) I bought at a market in Brighton (UK) and applied a foil to protect it. Maybe I should have added metal corners, I will have to remember that for the next time.
A half leather I bound, using oasis goat leather in a wonderful dark blue, and marbled paper I bought in Venice. Hand stitched silk head band, reading mark and coloured edge, using blue ink and gold wax usually used for polishing wooden picture frames. I think the effect goes rather nicely with the paper.
The books I bound for my cousins for Christmas. I was playing around with the materials and was rather happy with the result. I don’t know what Hannes is doing with his, but Emma is using hers as a diary.
One of my earlier notebooks. It looked rather boring and was more about the technique than about the looks, so I took it home and added the galaxy.
