I made more handbound journals for our stocking gifts this year.
We’ve always only done handmade gifts for stockings.
For my youngest daughter:
For my oldest daughter:
For my son:
Note to self… don’t neglect to iron the fabric next time…
For my husband:
Finally, I also made one to send as part of a package for my goddaughter’s 18th birthday:
I just can’t imagine all the time and effort you spent binding those and selecting personalized covers! They all turned out lovely, but the one for your husband is really special!
Super cute and I love your endpapers!
Great gifts!!
Those are nicely made. I love that you do handmade gifts for the stockings. It’s so sweet.
You are rocking the handbound book thing! These are awesome!
Thank you for your kind words, everyone! I’m still making a lot of mistakes with the sewing portion, but I’m getting better with each one. I appreciate the positive feedback 
Congrats! Your fantastic project is featured this week! 
You are really churning these out and they look great. Shoot me your address, if you like, and I’ll send you some headbands for your next books. I have loads.
That’s so kind! Thank you for offering. I did have to look up headbands, and I’m not sure how to add them, but I will continue learning, so if you’d like to share, and you don’t mind sending to Canada, I will take you up on the generous offer I’ll send you a PM now.
Yay!!! Thank you
These look great! The different papers and fabrics make it so fun.
Thank you everyone for your kind words
I don’t think I’ll ever become a “1-craft only” kind of person, but book binding is quickly becoming a favourite. I hope to make many more.
Those are all lovely. Nice signatures. I like the design for your son. Good work!
