# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Winter Bookbinding Workshop: Make Your Own Commonplace Book
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 29 Aug, 2026 at 12:30 pm – Sat, 29 Aug, 2026 at 03:30 pm (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: Spend a slow, hands-on afternoon making a book of your own.

In this beginner-friendly bookbinding workshop, you’ll learn how to fold, pierce and stitch a A5-sized handmade commonplace book using traditional bookbinding tools.

A commonplace book is a place to gather the things you don’t want to forget: favourite lines from books, overheard phrases, fragments of dreams, words, questions, recipes, prayers, images, lists and small observations from daily life.

You’ll be guided step by step through the process of assembling and binding your book, with no previous experience needed. Covers will be pre-prepared in a curated selection of patterns and colours, so you can choose a style you love and focus on the pleasure of making.

At the end of the workshop, you’ll leave with your finished handmade book, plus a small Commonplace Starter Pack with paper samples, stickers and prompts to help you begin filling its pages.

This workshop is perfect for readers, writers, stationery lovers, journal keepers, crafters, and anyone who wants to spend a few hours doing something slow, tactile and beautiful.

All materials are provided.
