Examples of what the progression and options from this binding can look like will be presented.

MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST
After studying in NYC, San Francisco and Boston I decided to open Acorn Bookbinding in Denver and share my love of paper and books. This passion for paper and creating something to share is the driving force behind my binding. When I go into my studio each day and look at all beautiful paper sheets that will become a treasured or happily well used book for children and adults alike I know that I am in the right space and place. I have enjoyed binding in the River North area of Denver and teaching in the Denver metro area for two years.
