Lily is always wanting to make books, so we decided to visit a lady who knows how to really make books. Karen D Hollister (hollisterbooks.com) is a bookmaker fairly near us and was kind enough to let us visit her shop. She showed us some books she has made then showed us how to make our own book. Lily loved it! David and Quincy enjoyed it too, but got tired of it fairly quickly.
I not only learned about making books, but our visit also reminded me of how many wonderful people there are in this world. Karen is a very kind soul and was so willing to share. Thank you!
This first picture is not of our visit, but is our attempt at making books on our own. The one on the left is a book I recovered because it was falling apart. The one on the right is a book we made for Lily. We used fabric to cover them.
