Bind a Leather Journal for all your Creative and Magickal Works!
Bookbinding is an exciting and ancient craft; our long-stitch bookbinding workshops let you create a personalized, refillable journal for all your creative and magickal works! Cost of your workshop includes etching leather, mixed media paper, leather binding cord, a decoration, and deerskin lace for closure (Additional decorations including tea-stained cover pages and metal book corners available for purchase)
Our leather is always changing based on availability, but we do have a steady flow of "pull-up" or etching leather. This allows you to create symbols and images by stenciling onto your journal when finished. The Witchery has several stencils available, but feel free to bring your own as well!
