About this Event

Step into the world of craftsmanship and creativity with this hands-on bookbinding workshop, led by me, Sara Prech, founder of Meraki Bindery—a boutique studio specializing in handmade books and marbled papers. With two years of experience as a bookbinder and paper marbler, I’m passionate about sharing the timeless art of bookbinding and helping others reconnect with their creativity.

In this beginner-friendly workshop, you’ll learn the foundational steps of bookbinding in a way that’s simple, approachable, and fun. Together, we’ll walk through the process of creating your own handmade journal, using my signature hand-marbled papers to make something truly unique. By the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with a journal that is both beautiful and functional.

Whether you’re a creative soul, a lover of handmade stationery, or simply looking for a mindful, hands-on experience, this workshop is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the art of bookbinding and walk away with something truly one-of-a-kind.
