Art Journal: A trip to the Bindery

Coilbinding my books into art journals/sketchbooks. Using images of my original art. I visited my friend Gay at the http://www.thebindery.com Richmond Custom Bindery and we spent an evening putting a few dozen books together. The notebooks and prints are available on my http://www.etsy.com/shop/VioletteGlittergirl etsy shop

Thanks so very much for looking!

Namaste,
Violette
