Gifts for my second parents, as I often call them. My guardians or godparents if you will. (My own parents are alive and well, fyi) Their birthdays are two days apart so I can give these books at the same time!
The books are completely glue-less, made out of cardboard stitched together. And a plastic sheet in the windows. The pattern on the 'cutains' was hand-embroidered. The 'landscapes' are made out of several layers op paper with shapes cut out of them. The signatures and covers were bound together, using the Coptic binding.

Please visit www.boekbindboetiek.nl for:
- My handmade books store,
- Information about custom ordering books,
- More information about me,
- A blog about all of my hand-bound books.

Hm, I thought you went out in search for paper with good prints on it. But, you make them yourself?
Very nice idea, well done. :)

Yeah, I do that too, but when it fails... :P I always have very specific demands, so making it myself is my only option sometimes.
Thank you :)
