Another art journal tutorial showing how you can make a piano hinge journal from post consumer waste. As I show you how to make skewers for the binding from your recycling bin you can make this book entirely from recycling items alone.

@lionpaw55 Thank you, I think it was probably a mixture Lisa: with the 'shiny' printed side I think I used a quick layer of gesso first, the other side I tend to mix the gesso in with the paint to lighten the colour and save time by painting them on together, though on the normal card side it's not absolutely necessary to use it.

Love your videos! Question...Are you using grey paint or gesso to prep the cereal boxes? Thanks...Lisa

I've seen this written out in Re-bound by Jeannine Stein, but it's so much easier to understand when you see someone make one. Thanks for the tutorial.
