This is a fun activity in Market Harborough, Leicester

Whether you've ever been interested in making your own notebooks to add a personalised touch to your journaling or you want to make a thoughtful gift for someone special, come along to this vibrant workshop where you will learn a variety of bookbinding skills, from note pad making and simple binds to full-on multi-signature hardbacked books.

Under the expert tutelage of your knowledgeable host (and her handsome, but furry assistants Marvin and Tonka), you'll learn how to create your own journals and explore the fascinating heritage craft of book binding. Explore creating detailed and textured covers for your books, personalising them to your own needs, giving you some treasured mementoes you can fill with thoughts and memories.

This class is designed with complete beginners in mind and you'll have the full support of your friendly teacher throughout, making sure you leave with a set of books you can use with pride, or give as unique gifts for Mother's Day, Christmas or any other occasion.

Better than could have asked for! We had a brilliant day (that passed in a flash!) in Ali’s warehouse studio making 4 different types of notebooks. We learnt new techniques, had fun, and trusted ourselves in the process thanks to our patience teacher. Ali was a wonderful, friendly, supportive teacher who got our class of 8 through all the steps. She made us feel welcome and made us believe in ourselves. (Rule Number 1 Don’t Panic. rule Number 2 Don’t Doubt yourself.) The books made are beautiful and the whole experience was so creative and fun! (Plus actually therapeutic too)… Great crafty place and day, I would highly recommend to any book / journal lovers out there. I went with my Mum and we were both buzzing the whole day and after the class too. Thank you so so so much Ali at Stamps Away! x

Enjoyed the bookbinding workshop, made four books by different methods. Instruction was clear and Ali ready to help when we got stuck. Really good atmosphere, everyone engaged and friendly. Would certainly go again

Loved this quick paced, fun & informative class. Ali was really supportive- on hand to help at all times, moving around the whole group, supporting us. Thanks for the refreshments & donuts I will join another class as this one because of Ali was so good.

Ali was a really great tutor. Very knowledgeable, friendly and informative. We were taught how to make four different books. The pace of the workshop was great, so was suitable for beginners and those who had done bookbinding before. Will definitely be back for future workshops.
