Secret Belgian Bookbinding

I made this little book last fall at a book circle workshop at Pyramid Atlantic. I'm not sure why it's secret (I came late to the first meeting and missed the introduction), but it was fun to make. I used gelatin monotypes as my decorative paper to cover the book board.

If you're interested in learning the technique, Patty Lee is offering another workshop at Pyramid on February 27. Click here for info: Secret Belgian Bookbinding Workshop.
