Now for something completely different! Learn to make this unique Starbook with Debbie Wachel. This one-of-a-kind project is ideal as a special occasion book for a birthday, shower, wedding, holiday, or any other festive occasion. Closed, the Starbook is a beautiful presentation piece with Shizen screen printed decorative paper covers, a beaded binding and a ribbon closure. When open, this spectacular Starbook will explode into a visual delight of a seven-pointed star held open with the ribbon closure. The Starbook has 14 beautiful pockets to fill with appropriate keepsakes: photos, ornaments, cutouts, artwork, the possibilities are only limited by your imagination! This fabulous Starbook, with an opened dimension of approximately 12² diameter, makes it ideal as a table centerpiece.
You will learn how to make this beautiful book that will use a 2-needle binding technique. The class will follow step-by-step instructions to make the book via short videos and two Zoom sessions. Zoom is a free virtual conference platform. A meeting code and password will be sent out via email about 15 minutes prior to class starting. Detailed written directions will also be provided.
You will NOT be making inserts for the book since each student will want to customize their book inserts in their own unique way. Ideas for inserts will be provided in the class. This is a spectacular book that is guaranteed to delight and is a memorable keepsake.
Book kits will be mailed to your home. Each student will be able to select from 29 different color combinations for their book. A list of tools and adhesives will be provided by email after registration.
All skill levels are welcome. Completion of one of Debbie’s other book making class is helpful but not required.
Limited to 8 students
