An introduction to the traditional craft of bookbinding, designed for complete beginners and anyone who enjoys making things by hand.
 
The 20-page instruction booklet includes clear photographs, diagrams and step-by-step guidance to help you through each stage with confidence. And if you ever need a helping hand, support is just a message away — contact details are included in the box.
 
This carefully curated kit includes everything needed to create two A6 hardback books using traditional bookbinding techniques, along with a full set of reusable tools for future projects.
 
Each kit has been tested by complete beginners, many of whom created beautiful finished books within just a few hours — some featured in the product photographs.
 
Thoughtfully assembled using UK-made materials where possible, the kit combines practical guidance with the quiet satisfaction of creating something by hand. A selection of different paper types and weights is included, allowing beginners to explore how materials behave and introducing the foundations of traditional bookbinding techniques.
 
Whether gifted or enjoyed as a personal creative project, the Introduction to Bookbinding Kit offers a relaxed and rewarding introduction to a timeless craft.
