Bookbinding workshops
Celandine Books workshops are regularly held at MAKE Southwest in Bovey Tracy, the Devon and Exeter Institution in Exeter, the Burton at Bideford and Studio Kind in Barnstaple. You will also occassionally find me at book festivals in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset.
About the workshops
Traditional and contemporary book forms are taught, and each one day workshop focuses on one or two book structures. The workshops are suitable for beginners and for those who would like to learn a new structure in a friendly and supportive group, with all the tools and materials supplied.
You will learn traditional bookbinding techniques using specialist tools and materials, with lots of expert tips shared along the way, and take away your own handmade books plus the skills to make more at home.

Studio workshops
One day workshops for 1 or 2 people take place in my well-equipped studio near the Devon and Somerset border.
