Book Arts by Mary Kaye Seckler is a book worth having in your collection.
I've been taking a journal construction class and find it fascinating. For those of you unable to take a class with Julie:
You might find this book by Mary Seckler extremely helpful.
I found the soft cover book at Michael's and used one of my 40% off coupons. The original price goes for $16.99 which really isn't bad when you consider how much information she packs into this book.
Learning how to make covers, different kinds of spines are all easy to do because she includes templates and clear directions.
Think about some of those beautiful collage pages you have been doing and then think about using them for covers of journals. What a wonderful gift that would make.

About Me
- Bea
- I have raised three children into happy adult humans. I have seven wonderful grandchildren. I have added two delightful women, my daughter-in laws, into our family. I have been married to the same wonderful man for 49 years. I care for and love our Orange Tabby, Louie, Joey the Gray & White and his sister Chloe, All Black and of course, Murphy, the Teddybear dog. I am a mixed media and fiber artist, photographer, and lover of life. I am a self-taught Outsider Artist who creates intuitively and often recycles found objects and materials into my artwork. I love to read, write and spend time with my family and friends. I am a storyteller who will often weave my love of the life stories I hear into my artwork. Most of all I just try to greet each day as an adventure and CREATE my way through it. :)
