Hi there - Two handmade books is a bit steep! I wonder whether you'd consider changing this to one swap partner? If so, I'd like to join. Please drop me a line if you do reduce the partners to 1. Thanks!

Yay! I've just started making little books and love it. I'll be happy to share!

Hi There, I'v joined this swap and the books are made now do I fill in the pages or leave them blank?

user1830 07/ 1/2006 #

If you want to fill them in with pictures and stuff please do but remember that maybe your swap artner would like to use the book as a journal or something like that.

Is there are particular size the journals should be?

user1830 07/14/2006 #

you can make them however big or small you like. I usually make them A5 size

FairyBotMother 08/ 1/2006 #

Okay! I've already made my first! It's A5 with five signitures, and I made the cover with brown paper over matboard and decorated it with hand carved stamps, main stamp is a mermaid..and I think I unknowingly made it rather Starbucks-esque! I hope the person who gets it likes it :D

How are others making theirs?

ok, well I have been very very sick in hospital for the last 3 months so I have not been able to send any of my swaps I will send these out tomorrow and hopefully my partners get them soon.
