Water Marbling with Cornstarch? DIY Ebru Marbling at Home Crystal Shaulis 2016-03-07 | Visit my store! --lakemichiganbookpress.comI received an email from a friend about using liquid laundry starch to do a variation on Turkish Ebru paper marbling - unable to find it locally, I decided to give the cornstarch option a try. It's not the greatest, but it technically works. This option is nice if you want to try ebru marbling but want to use materials on hand rather than purchasing methyl cellulose or carrageenan online. The results aren't very defined and the colors become muddled.
Suminagashi Paper Marbling DIY Japanese Water Marbling (How to Marble Paper) Crystal Shaulis 2016-02-26 | Visit my store! ---lakemichiganbookpress.comHow to marble paper using the Suminagashi technique. Simply pour water into a tray and gently touch your inked paintbrush to the surface of the water to draw the ink out. Once you're satisfied with your design, lay a sheet of paper atop it and peel it away.This is an activity for people of all ages - if working with small children, use disposable cake tins for a vat and pieces of yarn instead of paintbrushes.

Sewing a French Link and Coptic Stitch Book Crystal Shaulis 2015-11-15 | This is an update to my other French-link and Coptic stitch video. Instead of punching sewing stations into the covers for every sewing station in the signatures, I only made 2, one for each Coptic-sewn area. After the sewing was finished, a matching end page was glued to the front and back covers.The French-link and Coptic-stitch combination is a beautiful exposed spine binding that is much quicker than a strictly Coptic binding and also uses less thread as it uses one needle rather than multiple. Just as a Coptic book might, this exposed binding also lays flat making it ideal for journaling and sketching.You can see my work at http://www.crystalshaulis.com Online Store:lakemichiganbookpress.comI teach bookbinding through the Kalamazoo Book Arts Center in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Making a book inspired by Vensers Journal from Magic: The Gathering (custom order) Crystal Shaulis 2015-10-11 | I recently received a custom order request for one of my journals in the ladder-stitched style and inspired by Venser’s Journal from Magic: The Gathering. It’s a surprise present for a woman’s friend who is a big fan of the card game. Since Venser’s Journal has a very specific design on the cover, we agreed that I would make the vegan leather book with metallic card stock corners, then send along a piece of that same card stock for her to design, cut out, and apply to the front of the journal.I teach bookbinding through the Kalamazoo Book Arts Center located in Kalamazoo, MI.
