* I love to use color in my work, I relate the various hues, tints and shades to my feelings. I may be leaning toward some pink this new year, which represents happiness to me. We'll be exploring color in my new workshop - *Little Books & Instinctual Stitching* at @wayartyonder I'll be bringing lots of fabric to paint and stitch on for my students to incorporate in their work. Come join the fun, camaraderie and joy of creating your own instinctually stitched little book! Workshop date: April 22 & 23 2023 I hope to see you there!

More pages in the #onionskinjournal from @curious.goods ! Thoughts on the journal maker (she’s the Gothic version of the cozy cat lady in the first spread 🥰) on the Gothic and horror in general, and on one of my favourite characters Paul Atreides, who’s been getting more attention lately because of the amazing #DuneMovie and his lovely actor Timothée Chalamet. The texture of the pages changes as I work on them, and I can feel the weight of the stickers and scraps as I go. It’s great for a tactile and visual person. . #onionskin #journal #artjournal #penandink #fountainpen #journaling #collage #collagejournal #handmadejournal #handboundbooks #mixedmedia #frankherbert #paulatreides #balintawakarnis #atreidesswords https://www.instagram.com/p/CYJ9dLnrWl6/?utm_medium=tumblr

Book #4 and a second attempt at Coptic stitch! I covered the signature spines in black velvet, and used a maroon patterned cover for a Moulin Rouge inspiration. I used a thinner chipboard for the cover and do not like how flimsy it is, so I won't be using it like this in the future. But! This notebook uses cream pages with a heavier weight that I adore. A great little all-purpose book that lays nice and flat. I love it! #bookbinding #bookbinder #copticstich #braindeaddayoff #moulinrouge #burlesque #journal #handmade #handboundbooks #handboundjournal #handmadebook #diy #handmadejournal #blackvelvet #velvetprojects

Working through another order from @quaycoopcork Ballincollig ❤️ my previous order sold so well over Christmas they have ordered another 7 for their local handmade goods section 🥰 Three and a half down so far: going to resume this last one tomorrow, which needs a ribbon, endbands (a bit of sewing across the ends of the spine, to secure the pages and ribbon together) and cover assembly. Cotton fabrics in pics 5 and 6 are a new find from @vibescraft in Cork City 🥰 these cottons are so pretty and easy to work with, I'll have to add a Vibes and Scribes fabric haul to my to-do list for next payday 😍 Now to take a break for the evening and eat, which I've forgotten to do since I last ate over seven hours ago 🤣 . . . . . #bookbinding #bookbinder #handmadebooks #handcraftedgifts #handboundbooks #notebooks #smallbusiness #independantbusiness #commercialorders #supportsmallbusiness #supportlocal #localbrand #corkbusiness #corkartandcrafts https://www.instagram.com/p/CnaJZE3Inm4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Completed a very touching commission this evening: a condolence book for a late uncle compiling messages from friends and family on RIP.ie. I'm very grateful for the opportunity to help honour this gentleman ❤️ . . . . . #bookbinding #bespokeprojects #condolencebook #handmadebooks #handboundbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CnVH_kYoMBm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
