This is a fun activity in City Hall, London
In this class, you will learn the basics of bookbinding in London. Step away from the digital world and into the timeless craft of traditional bookbinding. In this hands-on, in-person workshop, you’ll learn how to make a beautiful A6 hardback notebook using classic tools, techniques, and materials.
- Whether you love a good notebook (like me!), or are a creative hobbyist, stationery lover, or just curious about the book arts, this workshop is for you. It's the perfect way to slow down, work with your hands, and create something truly unique.
- You’ll be introduced to the fundamentals of bookbinding, including stitching signatures, creating a hard cover, and assembling your notebook from start to finish.
You’ll leave with a wonderful hand-bound notebook — crafted entirely by you — along with the skills and confidence to continue bookbinding at home.
This notebook is reusable as the binding can easily be removed, and a new signature inserted at home when you have used all the pages you start with - super sustainable!
