For the October Craft at Ring Neighborhood Library we bound our own books with Japanese Stab Binding! The covers were hand made by a staff member out of some old National Geographic Magazines (the year that worked the best was 1985) using the technique of dousing the magazine with CitraSolv, a natural orange degreaser. Our National Geographic Magazines were donated by Looscan Neighborhood Library. Thank you so much Looscan!

Here are the results of our labor!
It is hard to believe that these amazing books used to be National Geographic Magazine.
Have a nice day!
