Handmade Book

My first attempt at bookbinding.

I had so much fun making this, and I am so proud of the outcome, although it's kind of uneven and far from perfet. I'm going to write down all my favourite recipes in this book(Oppskrifter is norwegian for recipes).
The book was so cheap to make, I had most of the stuff I needed at home, except for the canvas fabric, the scrapbook paper and the button. I used cardboard from a box for the cover and spine, and fabric from an old skirt.
