In this case-bound bookbinding workshop, you'll learn the fundamentals of creating a sturdy, professionally finished book. Case binding, known for its durable hard cover, is a traditional method for making long-lasting books. During the workshop, you’ll be guided step-by-step through assembling the pages, preparing the spine, and constructing the book’s cover to make a beautifully bound book. This hands-on experience is perfect for anyone exploring the art of bookbinding and those interested in creating a personalised, high-quality book from scratch.

Outstanding

Amanda provided a very relaxed, friendly and enjoyable day of book binding. Every tool required was laid out and ready to go. Her depth of knowledge of the craft was amazing, explaining what we were doing, but also why it was done that way and also taking about other ways it can be done. Fantastic day. I love my book, because it's more than just a book, but a memory of a great day in Kildare town.

Thank you so much for your kind words! What a fantastic review!

We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your experience during our bookbinding workshop and glad that you enjoyed the relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Thank you for choosing our workshop and we hope to see you again in the future!
