About the Workshop:

In this introductory yet comprehensive in-person intensive workshop taught by CBA instructor Maria Verónica San Martín, students will have the opportunity to deep-dive into both softcover binding and hardcover binding. Students will learn about non-adhesive structures, bindings for single sheets, and other bindings that can be made with little specialized equipment. Accordions, pamphlets, drum leaf books, and a variety of softcover bindings will be taught during the course. Students will also gain a foundational understanding of hardcover bookbinding including how the structure beneath the cover can affect the final result. Students will develop the skills needed to create a variety of hardcover books that will prepare them for building more complex hardcover designs such as the inboard cloth-bound book.

Don't miss this chance to dive into the world of bookbinding with this specialized intensive!


Required Materials:

Perfect for your sink organization
Color: Silver Grey
I have searched many sites for a product that will fit on our sink for all our kitchen and dishwashing needs and I finally found this product which proper fits with our kitchen decor and fits perfectly on our sink and it is very strong. I’m not worried about it breaking it anyway. Well with the price.

Love it
Color: Mattle Black
We'd been looking for a sponge holder we liked for a while andy wife came across this one. We were not disappointed. It's plenty big to hold a handful of sponges and scrubbers, plus our hand soap. I like the design that lets excess water drip back into the sink. Looks pretty low profile and sleek too

Keeps the water off your counter!

Works great! I’ve been looking for a solution to stop the sponge water from spilling onto the counter! Liked nice and neat. Great for keeping everything neat and organized. Size is perfect for sponges and nail brush and a small soap bottle.
