How to learn bookbinding by Luna

"Fun and interesting craft"

How I did it: I learned a little bit while in uni, but the real bookbinding I learned in a book with plenty of illustrations and detailed step-by-step instructions.

Lessons & tips: Before beginning, have on hand all the materials called for. Tip from past experience: My first time around I didn't have a brush, so I applied the glue with my finger. This time around I had a brush to apply the wheat paste, and it has made all the difference. The finish looks so much more professional.

Resources: I bought the book Bookworks by Sue Doggett and found it very helpful, clear, and easy to follow.
