Practice, Practice, Practice

So a short while ago I began pursuing my desire to learn how to bind and create my own books, partly due to boredom and mostly born from an obsession that I have with paper and books.  I am of that special group of people that will always prefer a book in hand as opposed to a book on screen.  I started small and have gradually moved on to more complicated projects (although the most recent and complicated book I just finished is child's play compared to some of the ideas I have seen).  Here's some of the projects I've done.

My Work Desk
This one is cool.  It's like an accordion wallet. 
Card Holder
First Book w/ Sewn Binding
Second Book w/ Sewn Binding



 A while back I made some Cd cases as a gift. I thought I'd add them on the end.

  3. Okay Kade, these are totally cool! See you CAN give great Christmas gifts without spending a lot of money. I would love to have a great CD filled with one of your hand picked mixes in one of your wonderful CD covers.
    You amaze me!
