Handmade Books at Home: A Beginner's Guide to Binding Journals, Sketchbooks, Photo Albums and More

Che meraviglia questo libro. Una vera e propria guida passo a passo

Excellent book, very friendly and easy to follow, even more if you follow the author on Youtube.

Nice book with clear descriptions and photos. Great for beginners and shows current tools to use.

I really enjoyed this book and followed the instructions for the pamphlets, perfect binding and a basic hard cover binding. I would say you will still benefit from watching some YouTube videos to get an idea of what's taking place, but it's a great reference with wonderful photos and instructions. For me the one negative which doesn't affect the utility of the book is the quality of the book itself. The margins feel. It feels like the there is not enough top margin and the content feels squished at the top of the book. Also, the manufacturing, glue and printing smell was quite strong and it took some time for it to go away. That said, it is a lovely book and hopefully the second edition will be nicer quality print!

It’s a lovely book and covers a number of styles. A lot of effort has gone into the presentation, but I do find it easier to use it in conjunction with the author’s youtube videos. My preferred learning style is to see something done, the book is useful to refer back to details.
