The art and craft of handmade books de Shereen LaPlantz

This book is definitely more "art" than "craft." Half of the projects are for concertinas and star tunnel books, which seem to be more "extravagant greeting card" than "book", in my opinion.

The instructions were a little vague/confusing at times and there weren't step-by-step photos included, which I (being very visual) am in great need of! There were a few non-detailed illustrations, though not for every step.

If you're just looking for inspiration for art books, this would be a good book to flip through. If you're looking for detailed instructions on making actual books, and especially bookbinding, this wouldn't be my first recommendation.

I received this book from the publisher via NetGalley.… (més)
